Being an astute reader you probably already realized that the computer was in deep trouble and as expectant as I was of reading my emails the following morning - such was not the case - instead I heard a distinct alarm sound when I turned on the computer - egad, I had never heard that before! And so off to the computer store; I sheepishly told the technician the truth about what had happened(just the spill - not the angel part) and he casually (I swear to God)asked me if I had spilled diet coke or regular coke on it? You're kidding you mean there's a difference? Yes, he calmly stated - you see regular coke has sugar in it and that is much more corrosive to the mother board. Oh what a metaphor for life! They took my computer for an evaluation - only to discover a week later that the mother board was fried but at least the hard drive was safe and the information could be retrieved onto a disk. And so an $800.00 lesson in not listening to my inner messages and letting my ego do it her way.
Fuming at Archangel Michael I reported the events at my next class - and asked Eddita - what was up with this dude? That was really harsh! She smiled and said, don't you know who he is? He is a powerful protector and is called upon for strength, determination and discipline. There are consequences, she added, to not following advice - especially in cases where you have specifically asked for clear guidance. You better believe that later that week (on the town library's computer)I did my research and read more about Archangel Michael - and even read a book that a friend had gifted me about him about a year earlier. The ending of this section of the story is that I haven't had a diet (or regular) coke or soda of any kind for the past 3 months. And I haven't meditated regularly since then either....
to be continued....
