A way to get rid of the fake noise. A way to hear the true language of my heart. Maybe some of the desire to write was born from holding back my words. I know. I can see it in my mind&rsquo;s eye. Those who are part of my inner circle, families of blood &amp; choice, are sporting sly grins. The kind where a person cocks their head ~ needing the gesture as well to convey the silent thoughts. &ldquo;Impossible. You, hold back words?&rdquo; Listen up. Pun indeed intended.<br /><span></span><span> </span><br /><br /></div>  <div>  <!--BLOG_SUMMARY_END--></div>  <div class="paragraph">What I&rsquo;m referring to was the time when I was a wee lad (do they refer to girls as lads in Ireland, hmm?) When I was younger (lets say between the ages of 3-12)&hellip; I know that&rsquo;s a big age span but stick with me. When I was a young girl, I began (or realized) that I was hearing and seeing things that the naked eye could not paint. Mostly after Catholic mass, I had questions for my parents. What was the light around the priest when he spoke? Did you see that man, with the yellow polka dot bowtie, sitting in the way front? He&rsquo;s sad &amp; lonely. Did you also see that woman in white sitting next to him. She is so pretty. I could hear whispering to him, I love you. My parents could not see or feel anything I was talking about. They didn&rsquo;t know how to explain or help me understand. I really ruffled their feathers when I proclaimed that a lot of the stuff the priest was reading ~ wasn&rsquo;t true. Or shall I say, not literal. But I don&rsquo;t think I knew that word then. That was a big one for a wee lassie. Ah there it is! Lassie. So when my seeking to understand was left void, I silently set out on a mission to figure it out myself. Oh, in this moment so many realizations! Is that why I also was obsessed with wanting to be a CIA agent? I remember riding my bike (<em>a long ways</em>) to the library, for we lived up on the very edge of town. And libraries as you know, sit smack in the middle of cities. So my banana seat bike took me to the place of answers. I can still feel the smooth wooden box I pulled open, time and time again, to find the white card (the locator) for my secret agent books. I was bound to figure it out:<br /><ol><li><em>why so many people were saying things that weren&rsquo;t true</em></li><li><em>what is real and what is made up (my first questioning of spirituality)</em></li></ol> <br />I thought becoming a secret agent one day would be perfect for me. I was so curious. Alas, or shall I say Alias. That role was reserved for Jennifer Garner. Me&hellip;a destined teacher and writer. Yes, let&rsquo;s get back to writing.<br /><br />I read like a mad (wild <em>not mad</em>) child. Often taking said books to my closet. Keeping the wooden veneer coated doors slightly open for light; as I tuned into spiritual LIGHT. Wisdom. Knowing. Angels. Ancestors that I had never met in person. Everyone was so chatty when I quieted the outside world. So, I began journaling to make sense of it all. I was in 2nd grade when I first remember getting a journal. The one with a little lock. I kept that key safe, yet if my sister&rsquo;s really wanted access, it would have been easy. They didn&rsquo;t need to be a covert agent to figure that out. But no one in the family seemed to care. Their interests lied elsewhere, while mine was satiating words read and heard. Images seen and envisioned. And thus was born, a closet writer.<br /><br /><br />Now I feel like I am sharing my journals. A peak behind the scenes of how I see the world. Here, there, and everywhere. The words sometimes come out all sassy often laced with lots of spiritual goodness. The sass is so greatly accepted. I love that side of me, because sometimes I can be too much for me. Or what I see and hear and know can be too much is what I mean. Not too much in that I ever want it to stop ~ I love my superpowers. Yet, navigating this world ~ outside of the closet ~ can sometimes be tricky. For there are humans out there. Humans being all weird and believing everything they are told, as it is written. Imagine that?<br /><br />So I&rsquo;m over here. Here, there and everywhere. Still curious. Still learning. Still listening. I still love writing.<br /><br /><em>&#10024;&nbsp;</em>When I&rsquo;m not sipping coffee or dancing in the moon light, you&rsquo;ll find me in a vintage clothing shop.

Sound familiar?</span><br /><br /><br /><span>And now ~ on top of all that ~ reflect for a moment on the energy it takes to always be there for others. You are a nurturer of life. You invite guests in and hold space for many across the miles. You mentor & guide. You cook ~ clean ~ hold hands ~ share your laughter ~ in essence ... you are in constant service.

I know that ~ I am love. I am the light of the Divine. And even with this profound knowing ~ the anniversary of my momma's transition is a mere few weeks away. I know deeply that it doesn't matter if 1 year has passed or 5 or 20 ... the golden connection of love is eternal. My heart forever tethered with hers.<br /><br />Is your momma still on this earth plane? If yes ~ no matter where your relationship sits ~ within your shared or differing beliefs...go to her in love. In your dreams, in person, whatever you can do... Your heart will thank you. Surrender. All is well.<br /><br />If your divine mother is no longer "here" ~ I invite you into my sacred home sanctuary. <span>The angels have asked me to share a sacred day with you. On the day my momma took her last breath ~ April 25th ~ the day that Sandra Bullock called the "Perfect Day" ... that is the day we will meet.</span><br /><br />A small group of women will gather. We will honor the mother line ~ and we will connect deeply with your heavenly mother.<br /><br />You will be held. Nurtured. And you will return to the heart of your soul....and to your sweet momma's (and any female from your ancestral line) that is ready & wanting to communicate with you.<br /><br />Just the other day...I saw my momma as a beautiful blue light. She is evolving. Her frequency is transcending as her journey continues. And still ~ she is gently nudging me (along with other angels) ... to move forward. To rise and shine. To share the light that the heart of our soul's know.<br /><br />With ease and grace.<br /><br />Join me.<br /><br /><strong>April 25th 6-8pm</strong><br /><strong>Ottertail, MN</strong><br /><br /><br /></div>  <div style="text-align:center;"><div style="height: 10px; overflow: hidden;"></div> <a class="wsite-button wsite-button-small wsite-button-normal" href="mailto:flow@wendybillie.com" > <span class="wsite-button-inner">Sacred Event is Full.

How about peak within ~ to the heart of your own soul? Who knows what information will come forward ~ but rest assured ~ it will be loads of spiritual fun!<br /><br />While a personal reading is not guaranteed ~ since Wendy flows with the guidance of where Spirit takes her ~ as you tune in ... really listen and receive... you will hear those soft whispers that are meant for your ears. For Spirit helpers love to get the messages through ... even if they borrow your neighbor's reading. &#128521; And, with a small group of 20 ... your chances for being called personally are great!<br /><br /><strong>ADDED BONUS</strong> :: And if by the evenings end you haven't been called on for a personal reading, you will have a chance to ask 1 question. Wow! So everyone will receive a personal reading. So come ready to ask a question that has been on your heart.</span><br /><br />&#10024;&#10024;&#10024;<br /><br />&#8203;As a child ~ Wendy could see & feel energy around people. For the longest time ~ she kept this to herself and chose to hide in her closet (literally) ~ <span>often wrapped in a blanket with probably a tight squeeze on a stuffy for comfort. It was here </span>where she would "listen" to the angels. She didn't share with the adults what she heard because honestly some of what she saw inside adults didn't make sense. Sometimes they would say one thing ~ but she could feel and sense "the real truth".<br /><br />Well today ~ Wendy's heart is wide open and she loves to share. You just need to be open & ready to receive. It is amazing what information comes forward! Sometimes very tender and often very practical. Helping you make your way in this wild Earth School we call Life.<br /><br />The evening starts with a short guided meditation and a potent group spiritual message... and then ...sit back ~ sip on your cider ... and enjoy a night of soul readings.<br /><br /><strong>Wednesday, Feb 5th 6-8pm<br /><br />1910 Sip House<br />41714 Foursquares Rd<br />Battle Lake MN</strong><br /><br />Doors open @ 5:30pm &#10024;<br /><br /><br />$45 (be sure to grab a cider that is included)<br /><br /><br />&#8203;ONLY 2 pots left!</div>  <div style="text-align:center;"><div style="height: 10px; overflow: hidden;"></div> <a class="wsite-button wsite-button-small wsite-button-normal" href="https://www.wendybillie.com/register.html" > <span class="wsite-button-inner">Yes!
