All Things Being Equal…
Was a saying that my mother used constantly, I’m not sure I ever really understood it whilst I was younger but certainly as I have come into adulthood I recognise that balance in all areas of life is essential, even if it doesn’t come as you expect it to.
Last weekend I had the pleasure of working on a beautiful, remote Island in the Outer Hebrides, called Barra. It was quite a trek to get there, I had set off from home at 4.30am and then I had a demonstration of Clairvoyance and Mediumship to do a couple of hours after my arrival. By the time Saturday ended for me around midnight I was pretty tired.
The following day I did 21 private readings and was completely overwhelmed by the responses from the previous evening. People were so kind and made me feel so humble that it was such a privilege to work there for Spirit. The next day was Monday, the day I was due to come home. Circumstances beyond my control prevented that happening. For the first time during the summer months in 30 years the little island hopper plane that should have taken me back to Glasgow airport was grounded due to fog!
The hospitality of the people again on that day was wonderful. I was taken for a tour of the island and shown the true, natural beauty of this fantastic place. The manager of the venue I worked in asked if I would like to have dinner in his home with his wife and family. It was the end to a lovely day.
My journey home on Tuesday was far from uneventful, I had a 5 hour ferry journey, followed next by a 2-hour taxi ride before boarding my flight back home. To my astonishment the taxi journey involved taking in some awesome sights. What a pleasure it was to see the Aberdeen Angus cattle drinking on the edge of Loch Lomond! I could hardly believe my eyes. I of course made it made home and was very pleased to see my family but what an adventure.
Isn’t it strange how things balance out in your favour sometimes from circumstances that you least expect. What could have been a difficult and tiresome journey turned into a wonderful adventure that I will have fond memories of.
Join me on the show today and let me know what adventures you are experiencing in your life currently and whether you think the balance is right for you.
Hi Litz,
Sounds like you had a lovely weekend, I’ve never heard of the island Barra before. How fantastic for things to work out that way. I quite like the thought of things balancing out in a good way!
I’ve been working lots, I’ve done two 14.5 hour days and today I worked 10 hours and should have had tonight off but had to go and pack and move my stuff out of halls and move completely back home (as much as I didn’t want to, I’ve had no choice). So had another long night and not been in long (o no it’s 2. am!!). However, I did get to have tuesday off as I went to see Take That in Manchester. I know, they’re not everyone’s favourite but they were fantastic, better than I ever imagined. And being in a crowded place and feeling quite anxious to begin with barely matter after a few hours. We were there for 8 hours in total, with plenty of singing, dancing, laughing, a lot of rain at one point and then beautiful sunshine and a clear night sky. Now if I’d have read this blog on tuesday I would say that yes things were in balance in this area of my life. I was working hard but I was also given the opportunity to have a lovely day. However, now I have to say I think it’s out of balance. The thing is I was supposed to be working a 5 day week (yes all averaging about 10hours a day). I’d totally forgot about the concert, so had to anounce on Monday I wouldn’t be in. I thought I’d got away with it but I think Karma has come to get me because my ankle and foot have swollen up really badly and are very painful. I torn the ligaments in both when I was 14 and did it twice last year as well, so I think all the jumping up and down has done some damage! Ops! So I suppose I’ll have to work extra hard to make up for it now although I’m having to hobble round so that might be difficult!
I’ve not been on many adventures this week
As for everything else, I don’t think it is in balance is it? Not yet anyway. And I seem to have selective amnesia! I’m forgetting the things I said I would do. I’m trying to write it all down but what with working so many long hours I’ve not had much of a chance…over loading myself again aren’t I? I know I need some time to figure things out but now I don’t have uni work occupying my time it got really difficult (I’m struggling and failing – I’ve not even managed a week of determination!) so I’ve filled it with lots of work. But I don’t think that is going to help, although the money comes in handy because have to pay rent at home.
I’ll try and rethink it. I suppose I am going on quite a big adventure really. I’m trying to sort myself out and get through this difficult time. It’s not easy but it is balanced out by a few things; I’m learning lots of things about the psychic world, hopefully I’m going to start rediscovering and doing the things I enjoy, and I’ve spoken and had help from some of the kindest, sensitive and enlightening people I think I’ve ever met/known.
Hope you have a good morning and hope to speak to you soon.

Hi Litz!
Fantastic inspiring blog, looks like a lot of fun, beautiful place, lovely people! I’ve had a friend who’s gone somewhere a bit remote recently…last night I dreamt of that song ‘Riders on the Storm’ but the lyrics were changed to ‘Carnies from the Sea.’ I wonder if she’s come back strangely changed…
