A Father’s Enduring Love
Dear Heaven Maker:
Twenty years ago my dear friend, and brother-from-another-mother, Raymond Aaron began a yearly ritual.
Beginning on the day his daughter Emma was born, Raymond put together thoughts, letters and keep-sakes, into a large brown paper envelope, sealed it, and placed it lovingly into a large blue cardboard box.
And every year since her birth, on Emmas’ birthday, Raymond has done the same thing and added that year’s sealed envelope to the blue box.
Emma just celebrated her 19th birthday and again Raymond wrote some heart felt words about love and values and other important things that he wanted to gift her. And then again, he added this year’s envelope to the blue box.
Next year, 2021, he will do the same thing.
But…in 2022 something different will happen!
The Light of John Lewis
Dear Heaven Maker:
US Congressman John Lewis passed away on July 17th.
He marched with Dr. Martin Luther King.
He spoke eloquently and lived for freedom and justice and truth.
I heard a long interview with him this morning and I was again deeply inspired by the Clarity, Honesty and Strength of this Great Man.
May he rest in Peace.
“That was like Heaven in my ears."
Dear Heaven Maker:
You know how much I love opera.
I didn’t know much about it all until my wife, a former opera singer, introduced me to it.
The GREATEST opera tenor (male) I’ve ever seen is Luciano Pavarotti.
My wife and I saw him live at the beginning of his career and then again towards the end of his career.
Both times we were transported directly into Heaven.
Marianne Williamson on Fear Based Mind, Love & Heaven on Earth
Dear Heaven Maker:
Marianne Williamson ran for the Democratic party’s nomination for President.
She injected ideas that had never before been heard in a national election campaign, chief among them, “Harnessing Love for Political Purposes.”
One of her principal plans was the establishment of a Department of Peace to greatly expand the use of diplomacy, mediation, and educational and economic development.
From the Head to the Heart…a story
Dear Heaven Maker:
Dr. Lise Janelle is a healer, a magical healer.
She sent me this note recently about a session she’d done with a family and my eyes welled up when I read it.
I just knew I had to share it with you.
Love,
Martin
It’s not Taking Responsibility…it’s Being Responsible!
Dear Heaven Maker:
COVID-19, Racism, Economic Turmoil, Environmental Degradation, Financial Insecurity.
Our world today is filled with turmoil. ‘I don’t know’/We don’t know’ is the new certainty.
What do we do?
Let it shine!
Dear Heaven Maker:
I’ve been listening to a lot of people speaking with me about what’s going on during these times.
And I keep hearing a theme.
Many people know they’re not going back to the way things were. They’re telling me, “I’m not living my life that way anymore. I want to do what my Soul wants to do and I’m beginning to do that. My Soul is gently demanding to be heard and to express itself.”
And I see that people are listening.
The Honeymoon Effect: The Science of Creating Heaven on Earth

This description of his book is from his web-site.
Healing
The frustration and anger at the continuing embedded racism in the United States has exploded with a strength and energy that is both familiar, yet with a strikingly new resolve. We have reached the point of no return. This time change must happen.
How?
Establishing a Truth and Reconciliation process for the United States.
Doing GOOD & Doing WELL!
Fast food restaurants don’t just lure people into eating their unhealthy food because it tastes good. Often enough, fast food is chosen because it’s cheaper than other options. If healthy fast food was the same low cost as McDonald’s, would people keep choosing to eat McDonald’s?
That’s the question that Everytable, a new restaurant in Los Angeles, is asking the public now.
