LAYING THE FOUNDATION

The year is 1999. I'm 35 years old. My son is five and my daughter is one. There is a book on the market making quite a sensation (and considered quite controversial) called "The Indigo Children" by Lee Carroll and Jan Tober. I'm stating this fact because the term "Indigo" isn't anything new. The term, along with many books on the subject, has been around for quite some time. Let's give credit where credit is due. This book brought awareness to the fact the Indigo are here.

Fast forward 10 years when I learn my own children are Indigo. I, of course, went in search of a book. I'd look at the pretty cover, read the back, and purchase it. Some I barely started, most I never finished, except one: "The Care and Feeding of Indigo Children" by Doreen Virtue (Hay House, May 2001). It resonated with me. I read that book from front to back in the parking lot. Only once, I never read it again. I did purchase extra copies to hand out if the situation warranted it. I still recommend it to this day. Yet I must have subconsciously known that I didn't require anyone else's opinion. From that day forward, I did not read any other books about Indigo.

My only source, for and about Indigo, is Abraham.

It wasn't obvious to me then, but it is obvious to me now. If I was to really "hear" what Abraham was going to share with me, I could not be inadvertently influenced by something I might have read years before. I am not in the medical profession. I'm just a mom doing the best I can with something that is totally out of my "normal." "What" is Indigo or "who" is Indigo was relevant, but it is not what fueled me. So what if my children are Indigo. What exactly does that mean? What am I supposed to do with that? I wanted to know WHY. Why Indigo?

If you are not yet familiar with Abraham: Abraham is a group consciousness of high vibrational spiritual beings; beings that work through God. Their purpose is to bring humanity the wisdom and guidance of God for the advancement of our soul's journey. Though most of their work is done through human channels, Abraham does not function with ego (a human characteristic). They have chosen multiple people to work through in delivering their messages. The most well known channel is Esther Hicks. She has been channeling messages and writing books with them for over 30 years. Abraham also works with my own mentor Linda Drake??, which is where we were first "introduced." I was soon gifted, just as Esther and Linda were gifted, to receive messages from Abraham.

ABRAHAM MAKES CONTACT

I spent a lot of time, energy and money searching for an answer as to why my children struggle with traditional education. I have pushed every imaginable boundary of the one belief I did have and held tight to, a belief in logic. Everything you read will seem "far out there", and it is. Yet it is also my truth, and this gives me courage to share it.

In the fall of 2012, I received a call from Linda Drake, my life path healer/intuitive life coach. It's out of the ordinary for Linda to call me. "Hello?" I answered. "Hello Arnette. This is Linda Drake." She cut right to the chase, "I have a woman in session right now, and your name came up. Apparently you know something or someone that can help her with her business, do you mind giving her a call?" "Um, sure, okay," I said. I let two days pass and I called and left a message something like, "Hi, my name is Arnette, Linda Drake asked me to call indicating that I might be able to help you with a work issue, thanks (feeling just a tad bit awkward) bye." We played phone tag, but we eventually connected. She was the owner of a local business looking to hire her #2 person, and literally, within two minutes the name "Dan Viotto" popped into my head. Clear as day. I interrupted her and said, "I think I know your person, I don't even know if he's looking for a job, but I'll ask him." There was excitement in her voice. "You know my person?" she asked. "Yes.... yes, I think I do."

Long story short, she and my friend Dan connected and Dan is indeed, the best business person she could possibly have asked for. There you have it Arnette; I say to myself, tangible proof for your logical little brain that you "hear." It's been a fun story to tell, but it gets so much better.

Four months later, I feel like I need to see Linda again. It has been awhile and it helps me have these touch points with Abraham (through her), along with my own Spirit Guides and Angels. Over the years, I've read many wonderful books authored by Esther and Jerry Hicks. As with Esther and Jerry, Linda has been blessed to work with Abraham too. I cover the same discussion points every time: my son, my daughter (both Indigos), my parents, my work, myself. I remind myself to schedule an appointment; it may take some time for an opening. In addition, I think I need to participate in Reiki III training so I have a better understanding of what Jacob (my son) will be able to do. I can't just sign up. I need to be invited to participate. I think that might be pushing my skill set just a little bit.

Shortly thereafter on a Saturday, I have an hour before I need to pick up my daughter. I can either a) do some work, or b) meditate. It's been a long time since I've really meditated. No one is home, no distractions. I settle in for what hopes to be a good session, maybe I'll see my teacher Spirit Guide (Chief) who is always beautiful red. Maybe I'll see black and white photographs flip through so fast I have to ask them to slow down. I always hope I experience something versus falling asleep.

My head is hurting. I think this is what a...
