Three times I faced death… survived a DC-10 plane crash, being diagnosed with Stage III Melanoma and now I had to have open heart surgery for an aortic valve replacement … on another March 1.
Three:
Spiritual awareness is heightened from challenges, but does it have to be a live- or- die situation? For me the answer was yes. Over three decades ago, through a trusted and sage-like mentor, I was told I had been assigned three life lessons. I had survived the plane crash and survived melanoma. Both of these life-altering events occurred on the date of a March 1st. Now scheduled for a heart operation on yet another March 1st. Was this to be my final life lesson, and would I live? I had to conquer every self-defeating thought and pattern if I was to understand my lessons and live. Fear almost paralyzed me. During surgery a magnificent happening occurred as I drifted from her physical body and transcended time and space. Greeted by my mystical mentor, family and friends an unconditional love overwhelmed me as I was instilled with insights.
Lesson Learned…life is simple… get rid of the judgments on yourself and others and love.
