Why Not (ePub)

When Louisa Bystander, en eleven-year-old girl living with her uncle in a small west coast town in the early part of this century, helps two older ladies move in next door to her dour classmate Jeely Jameson, she is encouraged by them to make friends with him and his wheelchair-bound sister Julie. The two women, Maudie and Mary Etta, pass on to Louisa a remembrance of the light, which ignites in her the ability to channel healing energy. She heals Julie, who passes the remembrance of the light on to her brother. Their summer together, filled with adventures that free each of the three children from the hardships of their young lives, ends abruptly when Louisa is called away to join her missing father and to heal him from his own trauma. The story of the three childrens summer together is related by Louisa, now in her early sixties, to her granddaughter Addie. It is fifty years later, and the world has passed through the shift in consciousness from chaos into a global sense of connection to all of life. Addie, having moved closer to her grandmother because her alignment with universal flow guided her to do so, finds herself living in the same house once occupied by Maudie and Mary Etta, next door to a now sixty-something Jeely Jameson. She hears from his perspective the story of that long-ago summer and is moved to re-introduce him to his childhood friend, her grandmother. When she does, an almost instantaneous bond is renewed between Louisa and Jeely. Jeely shows Louisa and Addie the results of his and his sisters own ignited talents. Julie, before she died four years earlier, became adept at remote viewing and out-of-body space and time travel, and Jeely, using the innovative advances in technology, translated and recorded her journeys into multi-sensory experiences easily conveyed to others. They all decide to share some of Julies multi-sensory holograms with various audiences around the world. Their first presentation includes the flight of a no-longer endangered condor, the ecstasy of being a dolphin, the global sense of oneness conveyed by the consciousness of a river, and Julies own final departure from her body into what she called Great Mystery. During the narrative, the author offers insights into a possible timeline in which the family of humanity no longer needs governments or boundaries, no longer experiences poverty, crime, or war, no longer abuses the generosity of Earth, and no longer feels separate from Life itself. The divine masculine and divine feminine have come together in joyful, playful, meaningful cooperation, enhanced by the love that emanates from Source Consciousness interacting with the infinite expressions of Itself.
