Slices of life

What is your default?

Quite often, each morning before getting dressed I check my weather app to get the prediction for the upcoming day. Yesterday I caught myself hoping the sun would be shining and the skies blue.

Then it dawned on me.

There wasn’t a question whether the sun would be shining. Likewise for the blueness of the skies. Both were an undeniable “yes.”

By

JILL PERTLER Columnist

In that moment, I realized something obvious and important: the sun always shines. The sky is always blue. Every day, without a doubt, 365 days a year. Each

day of my life – since the beginning of Mother Earth actually – the sun has shone and the skies have been blue.

They don’t change. They haven’t changed. Not ever.

They are steadfast and true.

I guarantee it. The universe guarantees it.

Thing is, though, I haven’t always looked up to blue skies and sunshine, even

The Magi then arrived in Jerusalem expecting to see the Jewish people as excited and knowledgeable as they were about this great happening, but they found nothing of the such. The Magi ask, “where is he that is born King of the Jews?”

Verse three of Matthew chapter two tells us that King Herod and all of Jerusalem were troubled. It was very politically incorrect to arrive and ask these questions about another king other than Herod. Herod immediately calls in his Jewish Chief Priests, and Pharisees to get their take.

The Magi put the Jewish

Wisemen still seek him

When I was young, I remember being most mesmerized at Christmas by the biblical characters of the wisemen who made the long journey from the east to find the baby Jesus, the Messiah.

They rode in on camels and wore great big hats and spoke with articulate wisdom about the stars and especially one particular star that led them to Jesus.

I was always very curious about these wisemen and where they came from.

Scholars believe that the baby Jesus was a toddler, probably around two years old at the time the Magi arrived in Israel. They rode rather elegantly on these very tall camels. They had been traveling over cliffs and crags, rivers and streams, across the sandy desert for miles and miles quite possible for months to locate and worship the Christ child.

There are many questions to consider. Who were these godly men and where did they get their Jewish faith in Jehovah, the one and only creator God? What made them so sure that this journey they were taking was going to be successful, that they were going to find the Messiah at the end of their travel?

Why did they leave family and country carrying these very expensive gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh on this strange journey?

Were they afraid, were they excited, were they concerned

though they were both there.

I’m guessing you might feel the same way.

Here’s the truth that’s been right in front of our eyes the whole time: the sun and the sky don’t change.

Our perception does. Our awareness does.

The sky is the sky. The sun is the sun. There is no changing either one of them. When we look up, they are the default. Thing is, sometimes clouds get in the way, or at least we allow clouds to get in the way.

I look up at the sky and see clouds and think the sun and the blue sky have disappeared, but they haven’t. They are still there, in the same spot they were a day ago, a hundred years ago and a millennium ago.

I deem them gone because of the clouds, but the clouds aren’t real. They are but vapors. If I reached my hand

out it would go right through the clouds. They block my view, but they provide no physical barrier. In that regard, they are an illusion.

Yet I look up and believe the sun and the blue sky are gone. I am unaware of the default. I forget it.

How about that as a metaphor for life?

Life is filled with obstacles. With worries.

With car repairs and mortgage payments (if we are lucky). It’s easy to see the clouds because they are ominous. They are lurking.

They threaten lightening and thunder. They want to rain on our parade.

And, in our preoccupation with the clouds, we forget one critical factor. We forget the default.

If sunshine and blue skies are the default for Mother Earth, why wouldn’t that be the same every day in all of

our lives? What if goodness, not hardship, is the default?

What if our own hardships, however difficult they seem, are nothing more than clouds, immaterial, insubstantial experiences in our lives set there to challenge us and make us better? What if we could blow them away with a breath of wind, or simply a breath?

I don’t mean to make light of anyone’s life hardships.

I’m living my own out right now and trying desperately to find my own blue sky, but it is there. Even on the bleakest, darkest, cloudiest days - the sun is shining behind the clouds. The sky is blue.

Sometimes I just can’t see it.

But it is the default.

I believe the same can be said for this big blue planet we live on. Goodness, peace, compassion and serenity

are the defaults. It doesn’t seem that way sometimes, especially right now, but goodness exists. It may be in the background, but it hasn’t left us. It hasn’t disappeared.

It is the default, no matter how many clouds darken the sky.

Infinite and unconditional love, peace and harmony are still here. Unyielding.

Unchanged.

The default is waiting for us to see beyond the clouds.

Waiting for us to see what really is. Waiting for us to see the infinite reservoir of goodness that is ours for the taking. Go ahead, dig in. Ladle yourself a healthy helping.

Breakthrough Treatment Available In Winnebago

Winnebago, IL - Imagine forty years ago if you were told that lasers would replace scalpels in surgery or that robotic instruments would build cars; you may not have believed it. By the same token, would you believe that chiropractic treatments could be performed using a special hand-held instrument developed by NASA scientists; all while you were sitting in an upright position without any turning or twisting movements?

According to Dr. William Johnson, “This new form of computerized treatment is so gentle and effective, that it amazes even the most skeptical patients. It’s called the Sigma Instrument and is the latest, state-of-the-art technology in existence today, and the only one in the Winnebago area.”

The Sigma Instrument can safely and gently analyze and treat the spine and other joints to remove the nerve impingement that is often the cause of pains in the low back, neck, shoulder and elsewhere in the body. It also works on a variety of muscular conditions to loosen tight muscles with ease and comfort. Many patients say that it’s like getting a mini-massage. Even patients with knee, hip and foot problems such as plantar fasciitis are being helped. It is also covered by most insurance companies including medicare.

Dr. Johnson says that, “The secret to the Sigma Instrument lies in its ability to deliver an extremely precise adjustment.” He says that, “Even though traditional forms of adjusting also work, people are drawn to this new technique because of how gentile it is and does not involve any twisting, especially in the neck.

Dr. Johnson uses the Sigma Instrument to analyze a patient’s spine and pin-point areas of Nerve Impingement Syndrome.

Many people love getting adjusted with traditional manual techniques, all of which are safe and effective. But there are a large number of people who never get to experience the amazing benefits of chiropractic because they are scared to have their spine adjusted in that way,” says Dr. Johnson. Now, there is no longer a reason to be weary.

The Sigma Instrument is perfect for anyone who has been thinking about going to a chiropractor, but hasn’t yet made that decision. Dr. Johnson wants everyone to be able to experience these same benefits and if you have any of the following conditions, the Sigma Instrument may be the answer you’ve been looking for...

• Low back pain • Headaches • Scoliosis • Planter Fasciitis

• Sciatic pain • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome • TMJ • Knee or hip pain

• Neck & Shoulder pain • Arthritis • Fibromyalgia • Sports Injuries

Treatment with the Sigma Instrument is consistent, measurable and extremely gentle. Call our office today and mention this article to receive a FREE Sigma Instrument analysis to pin-point your problem areas and to see how the Sigma Instrument can help. Call 815-335-2820 today to reserve your free Sigma Instrument Analysis Scan. This technological marvel can help you return to a healthier lifestyle. You may no longer have to live with a persistent, painful condition.
