Hope it makes many of you want to book your next holiday to that vast country. Angelic Realm has also not sent through a channelled reading for November due to illness, and am sure like myself, you wish Angelic Realm a speedy recovery.

Abraham thought long and decided he would let Dot have her way with the drums. And the drums rang out and were an immediate success. Abraham sold all the goods he had at the top price, without ever having to move from his tent.

Indeed he did insist on drums to be made that would work only with Brother Gates' drumheads and drumsticks. And Dot did say, "Oh, Abraham, what we have started is being taken over by others." And Abraham looked out over the Bay of Ezekiel , or eBay as it came to be known. He said, "We need a name that reflects what we are."

needs to be more to this than what he was actually seeing. He did believe in God/Source/Universe or whatever you wish to call that power. So he asked this mighty Power to provide a literal manual which he would be able to apply to his life. This ‘’manual’’ was afforded him through the teachings of Abraham, channelled via Esther Hicks. This resonated very well with Paul and he spent a long time looking at this information in accordance to life. Although it all made perfect sense and resonated with Paul it again was difficult to apply to his life.

He takes every possible opportunity to impart his message and to date has written 13 books, of which 7 are available in E-Book format. However, in 2016 the first hardcopy will become available world-wide. The key ones that are going to come out are the channelled information of One. You can call One God/Source/Universe and that information and specific 1st book is called ‘’Finding One’’ which is finding One within yourself.

It introduces you to the basic principles regarding the universal laws which would be the law of attraction, law of creation and the law of receiving.

And if you use that wisdom and stop focusing your attention on that which took away from you, you then have this wonderful ability to focus your attention on everything that will add to you. This again stems back to evolution. You want to add to yourself. You want to feel that momentum of going forward. When you work with people who have an addiction, do you find it is a process that they will win?
Every person who suffers with an addiction has the ability to win. One thing a person with an addiction needs to realise is they were compensating their addiction for their emotions.

There is nothing more exhausting than not knowing what you want and receiving more of what it is you know you do not like. Knowing is the KEY here as when you KNOW what you want or do not want and remain focused on either, then ultimately which ever point of focus you hold, eventually arrives. When you know what it is that you DO NOT LIKE and remain focused on that knowing, it comes to you. When you know WHAT YOU DO WANT and remain focused on that knowing, it comes to you.

Russia By Tilanie Meierhans

Russia a country of extremes. Extreme cold harsh snow covered winters, vast open spaces some of them flowering meadows in the summer months of which some come across as being barren and unforgiving during the winter. Rushing rivers and calm flowing waters. A very complex political history and a people who love and cherish their ‘’Mother Russia’’.
Monetary Currency: The official monetary unit is the Russian Rouble. It is recommended that you take US Dollars or Euros which can be exchanged at the banks, hotels or kiosk stores. Credit cards are also widely used and accepted.
Russia as we know it dates back to the Middle Ages National holidays: with the first state known as Kievan Rus. The religious roots are traced to Byzantine Christianity which New Year's Day (1 Jan), was adopted from Constantinople. Russian Orthodox Christmas (7 Jan), Tsar Peter the Great established the Russian Empire Easter Sunday (Mar/Apr/May), in 1721, known as a charismatic leader.

Russia boasts the beautiful Volga River, the world’s largest lake – the Caspian Sea, the deepest freshwater lake – the Baikal.

It has nothing to do with women’s rights but everything with respect and chivalry - Women are traditionally treated with chivalry. Women travelling in Russia should not be surprised when a male Russian friend pays for their meal, or opens a door or offers a helping hand.
Climate: One of the best times to travel to Russia is in the summer months, which is also the rainy season. July and August are the warmest months, during the cold dark winters it is advised to visit theatres and museums in the form of cultural information. And if you should be wondering, there is no need to worry, Russia has central heating everywhere for those cold winter days/nights. Aneis de Vida

It has a century’s old history, originating from the First Nations Tribes of North America where it was used in council meetings to ensure everyone’s Successful communication is achieved when there is voice was heard. It was also used to settle disputes, clear transmission of information and clear reception disagreements or dissolve personal agendas. of that information. Whenever we communicate something, we are doing it through a specific frequency that the receiver has to be tuned into in order to effectively understand the communication, like tuning into a radio station. When the channels of communication are open and clear in a relationship there is more harmony, satisfaction and intimacy. However, when the channels are blocked or obstructed, the relationship can become confusing, tiresome and stressful. Aneis de Vida
In order to ensure that communication is clearly transmitted and clearly received, all participants are required to follow the few simple rules when using the Talking Stick. Before you begin, it’s important that you are in a private space away from any distractions or interruptions and that you are comfortably seated facing

each other.
You must agree to speak openly and honestly about the current issue without dragging the past into it. You must also agree not to let your emotions take over and give in to the impulse to make yourself right and your partner wrong. When you hold the Talking Stick, you hold the right to speak and share your point of view. Your partner agrees to listen silently and attentively. Once you have finished speaking, your partner takes the Talking Stick and repeats back to you their understanding of what you said. They are not to express their opinion or defend themselves by explaining their side.
mineral world will help you find the strength to stand in your own circle of power and hold a stable and grounded space for truthful and honest communication. The plant world will help you find the self-trust to share what you feel unconditionally with an open heart. The animal world will provide harmony and balance as you listen with open-minded receptivity. You may already have a stick at home that will suit your needs, if not, you can just go for a walk in your garden or out in nature with the intent to find the branch that will become your Talking Stick. If you end up taking a branch from a tree, the traditional way is to take only as much as you need and then show respect to the tree by leaving a token of gratitude like a pinch of tobacco or a personal item at the base of the tree. Once you have finished making your Talking Stick you can hang it on the wall where it is easily accessed by every member of the family.
If you don’t feel satisfied that your partner has understood what you said, you repeat the process by taking back the stick, clarifying your communication Whether you choose to use an actual Talking Stick or not doesn’t deny the fact that the principles behind and having your partner repeat back. its use really do work.

As was the case with your partner, you too must repeat back what you understood to their satisfaction, without defending or explaining your side. It is critically important to understand that a successful Talking Stick session does not involve trying to get the other person to agree with your point of view, it is about facilitating open heart to heart communication. Regular use of the Talking Stick will help you develop the ability to speak more honestly without blame, listen more impartially without being defensive and create a climate in your relationship of clear and open communication with mutual respect. Making your own Talking Stick can be a fun and enjoyable experience for you, your partner and even your kids to share in. It is made from a tree branch which you decorate with items from nature. There should be representations from the mineral, plant and animal worlds of Grandmother Earth. You can use things like crystals, rocks, seeds, bark, feathers, figurines and fur. Each item will hold the energy of the world it is from, along with the personal meaning it has for whoever is making the Talking Stick. The Aneis de Vida

Who would have thought that we would one day become the farmers of our own digestive systems? Where we have been lead to believe that eradicating our environmental and body bacteria will give us health and vitality, we are now finding out that living in harmony with the Microbiome is where our answer to true health lies. The irony is that our microbiome out number our human cells ten to one. This implies that microbes are vitally important to our personal well- being and the well-being of our environment. We tend to forget that the health of our environment has a direct impact on our life.
Now is the time for us to ask our organic farm growers what makes for a healthy soil.
Soil needs to be balanced with all the rich nutrients of decomposing humus, water, air and living organisms. This will assist the soil in; Aneis de Vida
Soil helps to retain moisture. This moisture is able to absorb and store nutrients. Soil requires the life force of soil organisms. All the little bugs and critters that live in the soil, which includes bacteria, help to convert organic matter and soil minerals into vitamins, hormones, disease suppressing compounds that support healthy plant life. The pH level of soil indicates its relative acidity or alkalinity. Most essential plant nutrients are soluble at pH levels of 6.5 to 6.8, which is why most plants grow best in this range.
Air A healthy soil is about 25 percent air. Insects, microbes, earthworms and soil life require this much air to live. The air in soil is also an important source of the atmospheric nitrogen that is utilized by plants. Water A healthy soil will also contain about 25 percent water. 44

timal condition.
An organic farmer will also explain that soil that has been subjected to chemicals, poison and erosion creates an environment that is nutrient and microorganisms deprived. Essentially this leads to a ‘dead’ environment. We would have to rehabilitate this soil to support further life.
So the next time you want to sterilize your environment with disinfectants, remember you may be removing the bacteria but you won’t be removing its spores. Learning to live in harmony with our Microbiome is going to be the way forward in Cultivating our Gardens both internally and externally.

Healing properties of the onion is nothing new, we just ‘’forgot’’ and have again come to realise the vital role this amazing little veggie can play in our daily health routine. Now it is maintained that the white and yellow onion work best – not that the red onion is to be written off – that is not the case at all.
Onion is a rich source of Quercetin which is a bioflavonoid common in the plant kingdom, but especially high in onions. Onions assists in thinning the blood and therefore a preventative measure against blood clots, lowering cholesterol and bronchitis. As the onion contains chromium it aids in regulating blood sugars and therefore helps with diabetes and even helps with hay fever. They are also a natural antibiotic and anti-inflammatory agent.
As a prevention against the dreaded flu, Mr Onion does need to be peeled and halved, then left around the house during the flu season.

November 3 Card Reading 1—10 November Starting off this month there is a call for you to balance your mental and emotional considerations. Be yourself at all times, stand in your truth and do not hesitate to get more information or advice should you need it.
11 –20 November Now is where you will find people are more receptive to your ideas and friendships and relationships overall deepen. Should you find that there has been conflict with others, the next ten days will be ideal to resolve the issues at hand.
21—30 November The beginning of the month’s advice was to balance your mental and emotional considerations, and we come full circle should you not have done so. Now is a good time to listen to your own inner guidance—the answers you seek lie within. You can trust yourself and your own instincts, but there is no rush to push forward, keep calm and take it a step at a time.

We are daily faced with the paradox of so many different religions and belief systems which all lay claim to the truth. Yet if we accept the idea of a single reality, this paradox can be explained in terms of a metaphor in which, what each of us, either as individuals or groups, see or understand of the world, can be seen to be only different pieces and shades of cloth cut from one universal fabric.
Perhaps I can explain this better by also using the analogy of a puzzle. If we present a 3000 piece, complicated cardboard puzzle to a group of small children, due to their immaturity, inexperience and limited ability to reason, it is unlikely that they could ever complete it. However, if we separate the puzzle into much smaller pieces and give each child a section to complete on his or her own, be it a corner, a border or a certain patch of colour, it is quite possible that they will all be successful in putting together their small sections. And later, as long as they agree to work together and combine their different sections, the entire puzzle will take form.
Many Beliefs One Reality By Jimmy Henderson Jimmy Henderson is a cognitive scientist and metaphysician. His books are available on Amazon.com (Jimmy Henderson) or via his website www.jimmyhendersonbooks.com Aneis de Vida
This analogy implies that each school of scientific, psychological, philosophical or religious thought in the world today could be said to be holding a small piece of the great puzzle of reality and have at least some answers to the mysteries of life and the existence of mankind and the universe. However, the problem at present is that each group believe that their small section is the completed puzzle and are prepared to vigorously defend their views. This leads to the ongoing arguments and strife we see in the world as to who is right and who is wrong. The groups are all unable to see that what they each have is only a small part of a universal, many-faceted and multi-layered explanation of Mind and reality

Yes…pleasure is what the second chakra’s energy is all about; and it is vitally important that we stop here and feel it. All of it.

emotions are experienced in a more balanced manner. New equilibrium is acquired through the spontaneous practice of CHAKRADANCETM and we become more conscious of our feminine nature and begin to take better care of our emotional well-being, and therefore our overall happiness.
Water is a powerful element to work with and symbolically connects us with the unconscious realms within – our ‘shadow’ as C Jung calls it – the positive and negative hidden aspects of ourselves that we have suppressed or simply not yet recognized. Connecting to this vast unconscious state using spontaneous dance produces a profound opening up and a free-flow expansion that brings a gentle healing to the Soul and a sweet and comforting pleasure. In CHAKRADANCETM you are encouraged to use your hips and move them in big lazy circles and slow serpentine movements and just like water, your dance finds its own level of expression. By allowing the pleasure to flow freely we find we can open up more easily to desire, intimacy and feeling connected. Pleasure is important! “E-motions are the energy of motion. If they are not expressed, the energy is repressed. As energy it has to go somewhere.
Come and dance into effortless meditation with CHAKRADANCETM!
Emotional energy moves us, as does all energy.” ~ John Bradshaw
Repressed emotional energy has dire consequences on our lives. Feeling disconnected from others is a painful experience. Not being able to give and receive creates a severe sense of lack of self-identity. The two archetypes of the orange chakra are the Monarch – the epitome of self-identity; and the Martyr – woefully deficient in maintaining personal boundaries and allowing others to take away all pleasure. Having a healthy sacral chakra creates a sure sense of who we are in the world and both the positive and the negative aspects of our life are accepted and allowed to flow and find balance without losing our sense of dignity and composure. The result is an integrated sense of calm and Aneis de Vida
CHAKRADANCETM is a dynamic form of movingmeditation, developed and perfected by Australian Natalie Southgate and is primarily concerned with reconnecting to our true essence and hearing what it has to say.

Every evening
as she walks through the waters of grief her hand extends into the unseen world A hand is extended in return touching the visible world
So they walk Hand in Life
Hand in Death joined in mourning the waters of grief a silent witness to new beginnings in waiting
There was a time
Every evening she walks through the slow and patient waters of healing closer and closer to a new day dawning with the love in her heart of remembrance that will never part with the living With each painful experience, we uncover another layer of our souls. Caroline Myss, in her audioprogramme titled: Transforming Trauma with Dr. James Finley said: “Often we must be traumatised on the outside, in order to switch on, on the inside. The life-death-life cycle continues on in Nature every day. We see it in the change of seasons from winter to spring. Death occurs in countless forms and ways. We die and rebirth so many times through our natural life -cycle. Through life’s experiences parts of our identities will shatter, die, re-define, transform, shift and be reborn. LIBERATION

I lived by the rule of certainty Of what I thought was the book of life Convincingly a rule I thought was there for protection But instead acted as oppression judgment and condemnation A state of self-righteous contempt an utterly despicable order of Soul-suffocation Until a day I met in the darkest of night the vulnerable face of what was left stripped bare of the mask of protection Surrendered to the dark night Soul emerged flooded in compassion transforming self-definition relinquishing fear of rejection Darkness disappeared with the river of tears November 2015

When we accept that we are a complex confluence of ever-evolving energy and life is as such, we can accept that we will consistently move through the lifedeath-life cycle, albeit psychologically/symbolically for that is the nature of Soulcrafting.

For me, soulcrafting essentially means to make earnest the connection, alignment, conversation with one’s soul; to bring forth, to manifest, to free up, to show up, to artfully, yet diligently and patiently continue to sculpt and craft from the energies of one’s soul. This is perhaps the most important task we have on earth.

SOULCRAFTING
in a fluster of whimsy to call the jester aboard splashing its creation with a myriad of colour spreading its version larger than life over the walls but that too is a temporary state soon it is drained
to a translucent white the remnants of a memory Soul crafting painstaking and tiring engaging inspiring just down-right scary the art of crafting madness with an austere exterior whilst the interior remains smashed into a million fragments
Slowly meticulously sometimes carelessly daily momentarily Soul is crafted
So every second of every hour
Not sparingly but lusciously elaborately with the use of a complex methodology Life’s journey
of every day of every year the soulcrafter
must gather and muster
The crafter pulls and folds presses and holds rolls & flattens carves and polishes Soul sculpture
all its courage to once again carefully selectively start picking from broken stone and glass building re-crafting a creation carrying a memory

are. It is unproductive to continually question (now with the clarity of hindsight) why we ventured blindly into painful situations. If we accept that every experience is meaningful, we accept that in every experience we may find another piece of the puzzle for the question: WHO AM I? So perhaps the only question we must ask subsequent to such an experience is: WHAT DOES THIS EXPERIENCE TEACH ME ABOUT ME? Followed by: HAVE I EXPERIENCED THIS BEFORE? WHAT WORKED & DIDN’T WORK? WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO SHIFT or break the cycle/pattern and move to the next level of consciousness? What is the hidden gift of this experience?
yet carries its own in a rather complexly arranged order such as the pieces of stained glass in a majestically wrapped window inviting playing with the light letting it chase a shadow or two on the ground and so it goes slowly very slowly the days and nights of soulcrafting
Making ‘Mistakes’, are often one of the methods by which we ‘die’ in the process of soulcrafting. Why we define an experience as a ‘mistake’ has much to do with our conditioned beliefs of the world and self and less to do with the soul purpose of life. If we choose to look at our traumatic, negative, bad, unfulfilled, disappointing and sad experiences through the lens of traditional socially conditioned and sanctioned constructs as mistakes or failure (or sometimes even punishment) we block ourselves on the path of authentication. Using every experience as an opportunity for growth and connection to our authentic selves, even if we do not understand its meaning and purpose at the time, will eventually defy the boundaries of social conditioning, definition and labelling and help us shed its accompanied friends shame, guilt, self-punishment and judgment. When we define our experiences, choices etc. as a failure, we are in effect rejecting our unfolding. The energy we are supposed to channel into the process of becoming, gets stuck and we become immobilized by shame. Self-rejection does not serve us or any other on the journey. This journey is after all an experiential one. Every experience holds valuable information on WHO we really Aneis de Vida
Shedding the label of a decision or action that didn’t turn out the way we planned or had hoped for as a mistake/failure is liberating and empowering. Selfforgiveness is not about invalidating the pain of the experience (for oneself or others), but more about accepting and integrating the teachings of the experiences, allowing it to deepen our soulful participation in this world.

THE PROCESS OF BEING
when we honour the process of being we permit soul to wake up into full being as the task of soul requires we walk again and again through the passage of discovery uncovering the dirt carefully excavating the sediments of soul as such we sink with every inch deeper and deeper
If we deeply honour the process of being BE with the felt tone in the spectrum of feeling seek the fractal dimensions in seeing flow with the currents and tides of sensory experience
into the earthly soil of our being thus the archaeology of being if we honour the process of being with every breath our connection to the mystical is deepening
opening the heart to universal listening the voice of collective sharing from the trees of wisdom
we allow movement into being
and guidance
if we honour

there will be no exemption and there may be no desire to bypass it anyway Throughout this ensouled and embodied journey, ‘death’ in its varied physical and spiritually symbolic manifestations, is a necessary prerequisite for soulcrafting. Nature elegantly accepts death as a regeneration and renewal of her essence. Nature rebirths her truest form an infinite number of times each day. To ‘die’ is often to be emptied out and float in the nothingness of being…
spill through the cracks of my fragile exterior walls I waited at the edge of my stormy heart Hope, the cup of golden liquid I held for warmth between my frozen hands Unable to hold on the cup fell and shattered on the iced-over ground I desperately sent a whisper across with the wind Please hear, I silently pray this deep, lonely cry from within Shakily standing at the edge of the abyss staring into the unknown No turning back it seems Tell me… Where am I to go from here?
THE NOTHINGNESS OF BEING
In that moment I have nothing but surrender I sink below the watery mass of nothingness Floating nearly life-less underneath the surface frozen in time and space My body refusing to return from that inbetween space Drowning in this nothingness I waited at the edge of the storm to hear a voice once familiar Instead… the howling windtrail of emptiness met me there at the stormy edge of emotion
I give in and give over So I drown and drown Time and space no longer exist I am engulfed But then… A voice once familiar calls softly clearly from the depths
It cuts through my skin and penetrates deep breathing cold iciness into the walls and corridors of my heart Echoes of nothingness Aneis de Vida

the dark shadows of despair and unveils the light
soulcrafting. Reframing of what we often perceive as ‘negative’ and to be avoided at all cost into an understanding of the paradoxicality in the process. A comfort, maybe, to all on the journey, that having to go through the darkness of despair, nothingness and emptying out of self, is ultimately the pathway to soul. Something inside of us needs to die, before it can be birthed into truer form. We must FEEL our way through it.
The nothingness falls like a worn-out cloak to the ground Light enters my being filling my cells with a golden liquid of living warmth In that moment I know I know I had to disappear into nothingness to once again appear in truer form The self I knew had to be emptied out from fear I had to be stripped to the rawest version of self In order to be filled with a love so dear And as always my soul was near waiting at the stormy edge for me to journey through darkness into the light of being for me to rebirth and appear with less fear
THE RIVER OF MY EMOTION
Here I am I am of this world As I am also not Love is all I now feel Through the process of soulcrafting this is often the space between death and re-birthing we encounter. It is this frightening, painful, despair-filled, very uncomfortable space we journey through. It is nothing but sacred. I wrote this piece as a validation of the experience as a necessary space in the process of Aneis de Vida

I allow the river of my emotion to run inside of me I allow the river of my emotion to create its own path within me I allow the river of my emotion to run freely I remove all obstacles to the river of my emotion I allow the river of my emotion to wash the interior of my landscape to purify and cleanse the cells of my being I allow the river of my emotion to flow through me and out of me where it trickles down to find a stream on the exterior landscape of my being I allow the river of my emotion to join with the earth beneath my bare feet I allow the river of my emotion to join with the streams, rivers and oceans the exterior landscape of earth’s surface I allow the river of my emotion that pours directly from my soul November 2015
to pour into the body of the soul of the universe this is where I become one with all… “Much of your pain is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.” – Khalil Gibran Re-birthing is the rejection of apathy, resigned living and emotional strangulation. It is the act of regenerating hope for life when loss, disappointment and betrayal have spent the fuel of your fire. Somewhere in the ashes a smouldering ember can and must be found. The soul-fire of true passion never dies. I trust that every experience is an instrument of Soul’s design…carving out a path to authentic being… urging the necessity of soulful living.

Hello everyone, welcome back to the Barnyard Sanctuary, where all life is precious, all creatures’ great and small are loved equally.
their home forever? Mrs Piglet became afraid, would a big truck, even a little truck come for them? Shoot them with tranquilizer darts and take them away.
Betsy saw how agitated her Mum had gotten from the questions. Betsy went over to her Mum and hugged her, and said “Mrs Jen will tell us the truth”. Betsy promised to come right back from Mrs Jen with the news about their piggy home.
Betsy shoved Jetsy out of bed. First he had to have breakfast. Betsy had eaten while her Mum was fussing with the question of where their real home could be. After Jetsy had finished his breakfast both he and Betsy brushed their teeth. Wiped their faces. Off they went to collect the ‘gang’
Arriving at the farmhouse the ‘gang’ saw Mrs Jen sitting outside on her stool, sobbing her eyes out. They all rushed Mrs Jen to comfort and love her. Mrs Jen smiled at them through her tears saying she could imagine how stressed Shewhobefree was feeling. In the special cargo hold of the airplane on her journey back to her homeland to a tribe Betsy woke up feeling very sad, Shewhobefree had of Elephant that would accept her and make her one gone home. During the excitement Betsy had forof their own. Mrs Jen explained that a special handler gotten to ask Mrs Jen about the travels of the journey was travelling with Shewhobefree, with the necessary home, and to tell her, and, the gang all about paper work. Humans have passports and any necesShewhobefree’s home land. sary innoculations to travel to exotic destinations. As Shewhobefree was special cargo there was no quarantine either before the flight or after the plane Betsy asked her Mum where their real home was, if lands. A small consolation as the quarantine quarters they had their own home land. Would they be rewere just a jail to a wild Animal. Mrs Jen explained turned to their home land one day? she this is why she was feeling sad. Though half the tears were also of joy that Shewhobefree would be in her own home land at last. Mama Piglet was shocked, she really didn’t know if there was a home land for them. If there is a home land where on earth it would be. Mrs Piglet was a Mrs Jen looked at each of the ‘gang’ with such a lovbaby piggy when she arrived at the Barn Yard Sanctuing face. Told them that she loved each and every ary so thought this was home. Now Mrs Piglet was one of her Animal family. They were like extended curious. She loved the Barn Yard, gotten married family to her. Though each of the Animals had their here.

Mrs Jen then explained that domesticated Animals, such as Chickens, Goats, Sheep, Pigs and Cattle were classified domestic as they lived on ranches, farms or small holdings. That they were owned by the people whose property they were living on. Yes, domesticated Animals are bought for various reasons.
Betsy knew to let Mrs Jen finish telling her story about her love for them. When Mrs Jen paused, Betsy couldn’t contain herself “Mrs Jen, do piggies have a home land”? Mrs Jen burst out laughing and said “Yes, you do, it is right here! Why do you ask Little One”? Betsy explained how she had asked her Mrs Jen, still smiling broadly, explained that the Mum, Mrs Piglet if they had their own home land, ‘gang’ would grow old on this very property. Here at then explained that she had upset her Mum with the the Barn Yard Sanctuary. That people for a fee, could ‘adopt’ one of the Barn Yard residents, they helped pay for the food, fixing up the little homes that housed the Barn Yard residents, and in turn they could visit the Barn Yard whenever they wished.
Mrs Jen promised the ‘gang’ that she would let them know every step of Shewhobefree’s journey home. That the handler would be taking photos to send to Mrs Jen. When Shewhobefree arrived at her final destination, the handler would take lots of photos of the new family of Shewhobefree. The handler would then inform the caretaker of the herd of Elephant, about Shewhobefree’s journey and, that would stay on till Shewhobefree had settled in and settled down in her new home. All the information the handler could get would be written into a journal for Aneis de Vida

Mrs Jen said next on the list to go home would be King Stripey the Tiger. He needed a wife, and to repopulate the jungle with new blood. Once the Barn Yard knows that the residents can be returned to a safe home. A safe home land free of hunters and poachers, would they set off on their final journey back to their own home land.
Mrs Piglet cried when Betsy told her the good news. Barn Yard was their forever home. That they would all grow old together here, their very own home land. Their very own Barn Yard Sanctuary.
Mrs Jen said the sole purpose of the Barn Yard Sanctuary was to protect all life, domestic or wild. That each resident was treated with respect and that one day they will be given the freedom of living in their own environment.
Mrs Jen patted each of the ‘gang’, tickling their chins, scratching their noses, saying “we will grow old together, here at the Barn Yard”.
Betsy was in quite a hurry to get home to Mrs Piglet to give her the good news. That the Barn Yard was their home and their very own home land. Betsy loved the Barn Yard. Betsy loved the ‘gang’. Betsy adored Mrs Jen, who was always so happy to see them, listening to their adventures and sharing Barn Yard adventures with them. Betsy loved the lovely treats Mrs Jen spoilt her and the ‘gang’ with each time they visited. Aneis de Vida
