Hi all,

Once I placed the intent to assist in a retrieval I waited in the soft blackness for a Helper, and no one appeared (It was Sunday so maybe they were busy ;)). So I opened up and scanned the area around me. I started picking up on trees, a densely forested area...and I then became aware of a distraught child several feet away; A young girl, around 4 or 5 years old, wearing a billowy, ankle length dress that was common back in the 50's-60's. She was crying, stumbling over exposed roots and branches. I couldn't help but wonder how long she had been there.

I moved to where she had momentarily fallen to her knees and said hello as gently as possible. I had the feeling it wouldn't take much to spook her and that was confirmed when she jumped to her feet and bolted. She started screaming as she repeatedly fell, frantically turning to look in my direction several times. Her face was contorted with fear and fresh tears left track marks on cheeks covered with dirt. She calmed down in a matter of seconds but then had the same negative reaction towards me, trying again to put as much distance between us, so I immediately closed up. As long as my presence was so alarming to her I wouldn't be able to even begin to gain her trust.

When I couldn't hear her screaming or sobbing I moved deeper into the forest and found her sitting under a tree near a large bush. I did what has always worked and never failed; I filled with love and directed it to her, to surround and comfort her. She turned and stared in my direction, remaining calm. I approached and knelt down next to her, and it was then I realized something was wrong.  She was aware of me but her gaze was aimed above my head. I then received the idea to hold my finger out so she could touch me for reassurance, which I did. With more of an enchantment, instead of the fear she had been experiencing, she grabbed my finger with her chubby little hand and held on for dear life. And she then lowered her face enough so her eyes were aimed at mine and I watched hers become huge as she seemed to be slowly taking me in.

I silently asked if Helpers would be escorting her out of Focus 23 and when nothing came back, I asked her if she wanted to go with me to a wonderful place. I got a tiny nod as she remained transfixed on my every move. I picked her up, balancing her on my left hip, and smiled as we began moving away...Focus 27 in mind as our destination.

We arrived in an outdoor setting filled with rays of white and golden light, and what felt like a swirling breeze of warm welcome. Many others were there but I couldn't see or discern more about them, but the little girl could. Once her feet touched the ground she dropped me like a hot potato and trotted into the light, in awe, holding her hands out as if feeling for something. I then felt a presence near me and I finally understood what was going on; the child had been blind almost from birth. I can't remember her first name but I did get something close to Beggers, or Behgers, for a last name. She had either wandered away or had been left in a wooded area on purpose--because her handicap was too much for her parents to deal with. In any case, upon her death she had suddenly been able to 'see' again, but instead of being enthralled with the return of gifted 'sight', it set off a terrible feeling of horror that she couldn't begin to understand. So she stayed 'blind', finding comfort in the forest. She would scream and run whenever she momentarily and      spontaneously could 'see'. From her stuck reality it was like lightening flashing about, disturbing the safe blackness.

I'm so glad she's out of that now. Geeez.


Thanks for reading and much love,

Ginny :)

I love reading your retrievals Ginny. Please keep them coming....I wonder why no Helpers were present though. Or if they were, you couldn't sense them.

Hi Supermodel :),

It's happened a number of times and I understood it was most likely something to do with me :D (I began feeling a Helper's presence towards the end of this retrieval). And too I needed to learn to trust myself more as I progressed, instead of always thinking I had to have the aid of guides or Helpers. I was also informed that there have been a few times when there really weren't any Helpers available, so solo I went. That revelation kind of surprised me, but Helpers have experienced being human in the ELS so I wouldn't be surprised if they were trying to pull a fast one on me ;).

Much love my friend,

Ginny
