About Jan

JanHAPPINESS IS A JOURNEY – NOT A DESTINATION

I am in a year of change – numerologically a year 5 – one of freedom, travel and excitement, which I welcome and look to expand my boundaries!!

So I have decided to ‘take a break’ from my work here at Westview and live in a VDub campervan………travelling around Europe and in September I plan to take the Pilgrimage of Courage (The Camino), which has been traversed by thousands of people for centuries across northern Spain and it is said that the road or way lies directly under the Milky Way and follows ley lines that reflect the energy of those stars.  It will be a big challenge to walk alone for 800 kilometres (nearly 500 miles) and completely surrender to God!  People who know me will say – YES you are taking a leaf out of your book then – LET GO AND LET GOD!!

I will be away for 6 months, maybe longer but I WILL come back and you will be in my thoughts

    Hi Jan, Sorry to have missed your departure- do hope there was loads of bunting strung out over Westview! I do know that all the stars are shining favourably over you- how could they not! You won’t really be walking alone, for every step you take or every kilometre you cover, there will be one of your many many friends, aquaintances, colleagues and clients who will be casting warm and loving thoughts your way- quite simple Jan, you are just getting back what you give out.
    Be good to yourself
    Love and light

    P.s. Whilst in Tibet visiting one (of the MANY!) monasteries, I had a wonderful perfect peace of mind moment, and do you know what our guide pointed out to me and said? “Look Barbara, just for you a BIG BLUE BIRD!” he knew I was a bird watcher and was jokingly pointing out a carving! Just what you said at the last Reiki share!

    Hi Jan,
    So you have done it!!! Good for you. I am thrilled to hear you are on your way. I hoped that you would have stopped off here in Dorset and we could have met up. Still, I WILL meet up with you when you return.
    I went to see a lady in Southbourne and had a past life regression. Her name is Diane Egby-Edwards. It was very interesting, so say the least!
    I am in a muddle at the moment. What else is new? I wish you could have my Dad come through for me> I could surely do with him around me…..
    I will think of you and pray for you. Keep safe.
    Much Love, Iris xxxxxx

    So where are you now??

    I thought you’d be enjoying the sunshine in France – not like us feeling the rain on our faces today in the UK – I like the rain, it gives life to everything – but hey ho, tomorrow the forecasts for 21deg. and lots of sun again. If you have any insights be glad to hear them. Like you were I seem to be stuck, probate granted but little sister tarrying ref Mum’s house. Obviously, I’m not meant to be doing anything at the moment but it’s so frustrating. Thought I too would undertake a journey but it’s not to be in June as no funds. Have asked upstairs to help. I too need patience….
    Missing Mum – grief came out last week so I painted the kitchen and its lovely and clean and when the sun shines full of golden light. Needed to work this through and pleased as I’ve more on a little.

    Have seen a great tent in Tesco – is this what I should buy this summer???

    How you coping with the camping – nicer than in Peru and not a ziplock bag in sight!! Take care Love and light Ele

    Hi Jan!
    I am thinking of you every day and you are in my daily prayers, which usually say: ‘Please keep Jan safe on her trip and please let her find what she is looking for!!’
    Take care of yourself!
    Much Love,
    Iris xxxxx
    PS: I am at peace now and you played a huge part in this!

    Dear Jan,

    Thinking of you! All the best wwith the rest.

    ‘Just thought you’d like to know that the thing I mentioned that was b. awful when we bumped into eachother at the flower market before you left has lifted. A few people came out with egg on their faces.Now I am really appreciating my freedom (freedom from worry more than anything).

    I could do something really bizarre! You obviously already had that ‘I could do anything’ feeling. Go girl!

    Love

    Amanda

    Jan,

    So very glad to read that your mechanical troubles are becoming a memory. Best they happened here though rather than on the continent. Like all you other friends I admire hugely what you are embarking on. You are displaying a strength of character few of us have if we are honest. I feel a vacuum in my life at your going combined with a joy for what you are doing. I wish you all you are seeking and more. I enjoy following your adventures and shall continue to send you Reiki throughout your journey. Can’t wait to see the changes in you on your return.
    Love and Light

    Peter
