New York Feng Shui Blessings and a Blog---That's all it Took!
I don't believe anyone starts Blogging with the realization of all the incredible things it can bring you. I certainly didn't.
I certainly didn't expect a BLOG here on Activerain to help my mom get a new dog.....
My BEST ActiveRain SUCCESS Story: He Had me at Hello : )
I was thrilled that my brother's friend had called and that we'll be visiting shortly. But I was not at ALL prepared for what followed that phone call the following evening-now TWO days after the Feng Shui Blessing on our lovely Long Island home.
Some of my blogs have been personal. One was a father's day tribute to my terrific dad Lt. Colonel Peter F. Provenzale, The "Perfect" Dad....by Feng Shui Long Island and another was about when I was informed by my cousin that my father was NOT listed as a member of the 8th Air Force Museum in Georgia. I couldn't believe it---he was a Lt. Colonel in the 8th Air Force in WW11 in the 351st division and a Navigator for the B-17 Airplanes.
He's in the movie "Combat America", a documentary that Clark Gable filmed while he was in the war. And he says my father's name several times during the movie:. Peter Provenzale...one of the clips of the movie is in this link: 8th Air Force 351st Fighter Group Historical Society--by Carole Provenzale
I got every piece of paper my mother had and made copies....there was nothing I left out of the information including his dates of service, the medals he won, copies of original clippings and everything they would need to have him listed.
I sent all the copies to the Museum with the request that he be added and received a rather curt reply that they were "too busy." I couldn't believe it. I called, wrote and emailed and got nothing back. Time passed and they did nothing. Eventually I gave up....because I had to turn my attention to other things.
The phone call I received just two days after the Blessings was from the son of a man who flew with my father---the last remaining crew member still alive! I was then able to speak to the man who actually flew with my dad. My father didn't speak much about the war....it seems no one that returned did; it was too difficult.
I didn't know my father was hurt so badly they thought he was dead. I didn't know on another mission that they ran out of gas and had to get out of the plane before it crashed into the English Channel. I didn't know my father could have gone home after his injury but stayed to complete all his missions. I didn't know so many things......
His son told me he was the "Keeper of his father's memories" and he also, it seemed, was the keeper of MY father's memories. His son also told me he was going to try to reach one more person...the son of the Pilot who flew all the missions.
He did find him and told him of OUR conversation. We are all hoping to Meet in St. Louis with ALL our memorabilia and our stories. I will be able to speak to my father's "brother." I also hear that it may well be possible that these people can finally get my father listed as having proudly served our Country. They found me from a blog right here on Activerain.
I wondered "WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?"
And I thought about the Feng Shui Blessings....Of Course. How could I not have thought of it?
