Letters to the Editor
Angels in disguise
Editor:
I’ve always seen life just a bit different. Well, maybe more than a bit if we’re being honest. Seeing into the soul of someone, the truth of a situation, is a little challenging when others are content with admiring window dressing. Sometimes though, just sometimes, it’s a little sweeter to have such a gift.
And if you promise to listen, I’ll tell you a secret. A story, really. Years ago on a warm morning, a young man browsed through my books on spirituality — one of many attendees for a garage sale. When he turned and we locked eyes, I somewhat gasped.
“You’re a crystalline soul,” I said because I tend to lack a filter.
I’d met crystalline children before but never adults, and his energy was so refreshing. The term was unfamiliar, and so I explained that he likely held crystalline and indigo DNA codes — a unique mixture.
“As a crystalline, people always want to be in your energy because you naturally heal them. And as an indigo, you feel a special mission, even to save the world,” I added.
His parents, who’d stopped to listen, started to smile. And it was the mom who admitted how people always gravitated toward her son. Chiming in, the dad said his son did feel a responsibility to help make the world a better place. Deeply so. The couple, though of a different vibration, were supportive and so theirs was a safe space.
This delightful meeting chanced on a Saturday morning in Albuquerque; and I share it here because something similar has begun to happen in Belen.
I’ve met a number of children over the years who hold a higher vibration — as if our world is now being blessed with the pure of heart. But recently the adults are starting to shine. I remember leaving Rutilio’s when a Catholic woman stopped for a brief conversation — her energy so angelic that it was beautiful to behold.
But soon the men of Belen started to shine, for it’s the only way to describe such a curious sight.
One day, I watched at Yucca Veterinary as a man handled his pack of dogs and ponies with ease. But the defining element was his energy body — as if burdens had vanished and allowed him to be divinely masculine.
Men and women around the city, and even the world, have started to spiritually glow from within, to emanate a purity of character, and to almost age in reverse. I am beginning to hear people say of each other, “You look 10 years younger” or “You’ve lost 20 years.” And it’s not the effects of a surface beauty regimen but an internal glow-up that is transforming people to their energetic core. A crystalline consciousness like Christ.
More and more, people of a different nature are starting to reveal their truest colors. And how delightful that I see it in Belen, the voice of Bethlehem … the birthplace of God’s child.

Things are changing
Editor:
The latest spending figures are out and it seems that Black Friday and Cyber Monday revealed that billions of dollars were spent.
So, it really wasn’t about the economy. Was it? It was about hatred, White supremacy and plain old racism. Now we can stop complaining about the price of eggs, right?
It seems that discretionary income isn’t for emergencies. Rather, it is for living beyond one’s means. Now, we all are going to have to tolerate all that is going to hit us, including the cruelty of family separations.
While on the subject of hypocrisy, True New Mexico or the tourism industry is running an advertisement glorifying the agricultural benefits in our state.
My question is how are these mega farmers going to survive when the deportation process begins? After all, many of these people voted for him.
