FEATURE ARTICLE
Play Your Free
Square
By Victoria Moran
Radio Host of: "A Charmed
Life"
4th Wed., Every Month, 9am PT
|
|
In the game of Bingo,
every player starts with a bonus: the free square in the middle.
Because everybody gets one, nobody thinks much of it, but the free
square is just as valuable in winning the game as B-7 or O-69.
We have "free squares" in
our lives, too: talents, abilities, and inexplicable aptitudes that
make certain things almost effortless. Maybe we can sing, or we're
good at math, or children warm to us and listen when we talk. But
when someone comments on our free square, we tend to say, "Oh,
that. It's nothing." Because we didn't work hard to get it,
the same way a player doesn't have to perform to get a free square
on the Bingo card, we undervalue what may be our most serviceable
attribute.
Without the benefit of our free square -
or squares; you can certainly have more than one - we run ourselves
ragged trying to be something we aren't. We work diligently to fit
our round pegs into square holes, or to fit our round selves into
the media's angular ideal. When we recognize and appreciate our
own free squares, though, we can see that the key to our success
and fulfillment is inside the person we are, not the one we think
we're supposed to be. We can use, trade, barter, and build on the
assets that are inherently ours to flesh out our lives with other
good things that don't come so easily.
If you're unclear about your own free squares, answer the following
questions: Is there an area of your life - even one you may have
regarded as insignificant - in which good things tend to happen
repeatedly and automatically? Do you have an aptitude for something
that seems so natural you can't understand why other people struggle
with it? What do you get compliments about? How would you finish
the sentence, "I've just got a knack for..."
Your answers may indicate that you,
like my daughter Rachael, have a free square for money. This child
has always had an affinity for cash, both acquiring it and hanging
onto it. When she was only three, she once interrupted a grown-up
financial discussion to say, "If I had a savings account that
was drawing interest, I could make you a loan."
Or, like me, you may have a free square
for meeting people. I constantly run into people who are helpful,
fascinating, and sometimes famous. I meet them on buses, in cafes,
riding elevators. It just happens.
Perhaps you, like my friend Francesca, have an uncanny penchant
for winning things. Since I've known her, she's won a fax machine,
a Ford Escort, and a trip to Disney World. What she doesn't win,
she can usually get wholesale.
Once you identify your free squares, play them by using what's easy
to help you with what isn't. When Francesca won that fax machine,
for instance, she had been unsuccessfully looking for work for several
weeks. She thought about selling her prize - she could have used
the money - but Francesca is a woman who takes her free squares
seriously. She decided that the universe wouldn't have supplied
her with this techno-toy if she wasn't supposed to use it. To try
the thing out and see how it worked, she faxed her resume to some
personnel directors. Her top pick responded and hired her.
The next time you think you might not have what it takes to get
the kind of life you're after, enlist the help of your free square.
Your particular gift may not look like what you need at the moment;
Francesca's fax machine didn't look like a job offer either. Use
your free square. Let it work for you. Be proud of it and grateful
for it. Bingo!

HOST OF THE MONTH:
Linda Mackenzie
of "Creative Health &
Spirit "
Tuesdays, 8 am PT

| Each month we

Mackenzie -Founder of HealthyLife.Net who is a multi-book author,
producer, lecturer, radio & TV personality and energy sensitive. |

HL-Why did you start HealthyLife.Net Radio?
My positive radio program on terretrial radio was syndicated in
246 markets for over 8 years. I broke all records for call-ins
which led me to believe people wanted positive talk shows to help
them feel good and have a happy life. With an 18 year background
in computers and telecom engineering I decided somebody had to do
it and God picked me.
HL-What is a God-Based Psychic? I prefer the word energy-sensitive
rather than psychic. I don't come from the planet "Altair"
or the Universe, I am direct connect to God Energy. I saw God when
I was 8 years old and immediately received all my abilities. However
I tested and honed them for over 30 years before coming out as a
"Psychic" and servicing people.
HL-What benefits do you want your audience to get from your show?
My intention is to give people positive and useful information to
help their lives become better. I don't just interview guests, but
also have fun segments on spiritual & health topics, as well
as, live call-in "psychic" readings at 8:30am PST every
week.
HL- What is your biggest challenge in life and how do you overcome
it? So much to do, so little time. So I guess I'll have to say
time, even though time is man-made. These days "Time"
is speeding up energetically and the only way can I do all the things
on my table is by living in the moment and being in synchronicity.
HL-What are your hobbies?
I love life and balance, so I have a lot. My hobbies are golf,
yoga, painting, reading and writing.
HL-What can we expect from your show in the future?
Well, my radio show has been on air for a long time. I will continue
to have thought-provoking guests, great fun segments, on-air readings
and am always open to suggestions from my listeners. The show is
designed for them, not me and I consider my show part of my service
to mankind.
HL-What are some of the upcoming events you are doing?
I am introducing my new documentary short film and at the Society
for Paranormal Research and Education in Fort Collins, Colorado
Sept 19 and doing a workshop on Sept 20 about the "Many Faces
of Psychic Ability. You can visit spre.org for info..
HL-If you could be another HealthyLife Host who would it be and
why?
All of them! Each one of our hosts are hand selected, special people
which are, in my opinion, the best of the best. All have special
gifts and ways in which they are helping change the world to be
a better place. How cool is that! I am happy to have provided the
bus (HealthyLife.Net) to help them get their positive energy out
to our listeners. Thank you God! Please excuse me for a moment..."Now
God while I have you here...can we talk about reducing the work
load, more health benefits, etc., etc., etc.?"

Corner: Auras

Auras
are atmospheres arising from and surrounding the body. Similar to
the earth's atmosphere, auras help protect the mind, body and spirit.
Colors in the auric field constantly vary and change and are NOT just
one color. For more than 40 charts on alternative medicine and metaphysical
topics order Linda Mackenzie's award winning book: Inner

Spicy
Mushroom Tacos
by: Steve Levesque
o Fresh cilantro, avocado, tomatoes, and/or Busha Brown's
Pukka Sauce (garnishes)
o 2 lbs fresh mushrooms (any kind)
o 2 tsp Cajun spice
o 1½ tsp paprika
o 2 T olive oil
o 2 T chopped fresh garlic
o 2 T lime juice
o 1 bottle of Heineken beer (no brand substitute)
o Peanut or olive oil (for frying)
o Corn tortillas
Chop cilantro. Dice avocado and tomatoes. Coarsely chop
mushrooms. Mix Cajun spice with paprika in large bowl.
Add mushrooms and toss to coat. Heat olive oil in large
skillet over high heat. Add garlic and sauté 1
minute. Add mushrooms and sauté until tender, adding
lime juice and beer to your taste. Heat oil in large skillet
until bubbling hot. Tear off a small piece of tortilla
and place in skillet. If it sizzles, the oil is ready.
Fry tortillas two-at-a-time until they puff up, then turn
them over and fold them into a shell. Remove from skillet
and drain well on paper towels. Stuff mushrooms into shells
and garnish with cilantro, avocado, tomatoes, and/or sauce.
"These are the best tacos you've ever eaten! Ever."
Editor's Note: Steve's recipe was originally prepared
with shrimp; we gave it a vegetarian spin by simply substituting
mushrooms. And yes, these are awesome tacos.
