Wishing you a Beautiful New Year



Happy New Year!

I hope you enjoyed a wonderful Holiday Season filled with Love, Family and Good Friends

We had a quiet Christmas, our small Family missing Dad this year, however we were blessed to enjoy Christmas Dinner and the evening out with our Dear Friends Colleen, Andrew, Jaime and Leslie. 


In the week leading up to Christmas, Mom and I spent a few days baking together. That was quite enjoyable as we haven't done that in a long time. 

In November I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease and have been going through some treatment and sorting of Medications that will help me deal with the effects of the disease. Although I wasn't happy to have that diagnosis, I was somewhat relieved to potentially have some answers for some of the health issues i've been experiencing over the last couple of years.

I'm off work for a few months with a goal of being good to myself and healing: getting rest, exercise, building strength and engaging in practices to deal with stress and evoke peace of mind.

For me, Paper Crafting = Peace of Mind

So in that spirit, I have been trying to spend a little time each day on my artwork.

I am hopeful that Rest, Exercise, Mindfulness and Creativity will take me back to a place in time where I felt good inside and out , made sound decisions and enjoyed healthy and meaningful relationships. 

I really like the sentiment on my first card because I want to live with passion, laugh out loud more and Love myself more deeply. In doing so the energy I project will attract the energy that will allow me to realize my personal goals.




I want to dance in the moonlight and find my place in the sun.

A LOT of objectives to meet this year but I am strong, reasonably wise, but I could use some help with accountability, Perhaps the first step toward that is to blog. To say it out loud and share it means that I feel a sense of obligation to follow through........not necessarily for others, but for myself. Being good to oneself can be selfish, but also selfless. Selfless in that in order to be good to others, one must be good to themselves. A Candle that lacks a flame  cannot emit light or warmth. One needs to have the means to ignite the flame. On that, I will be working~

  3. My name is Olisa Blessing, I feel so happy. I never thought I would be this healthy again in my life. I have worked as an air hostess ( cabin crew ) for 3years but early this year, I lost my job because of this deadly disease called Herpes virus (HSV). I never felt sick or notice any symptoms. Not until the day all workers were asked to bring their doctors report card, that was how I got tested and I found out that I'm HSV positive and that made me lose my job because it was considered as an STD and is an incurable disease. I was so depressed that I started thinking of suicide.
    I explained my situation to an older friend of mine, who often said to me 'a problem shared is a problem half solved. She felt so pity for me that she referred me to Dr. Utu Herbal Cure, that was how I contacted Dr. Utu and got the medication from him and was cured for real.
    I went back to my work a month later with another HSV negative test result and they conducted another test to be very sure and they found out I am negative.
    Finally, the initial test was replaced with a negative result, and my position was revived with an apology letter and compensation.
    Beware of impersonators,
    Dr. Utu can only be reached at-
