“I hold all the colors within me and share them freely with the world.  I am the crystal.”  Sheryl Hirsch-Kramer, “I Am The Crystal,” 2002

What is a crystal being?

“Want to help others? Be yourself. You’ll inspire others to muster the courage to be themselves as well.” ― Kamand Kojouri

Emma’s mother couldn’t understand why her daughter defied the lunch ladies at her middle school and shared her cafeteria stool with a special needs child who was shunned by her classmates.

The lunch ladies had a strict one stool/one child rule.  The stools were stationary.  Emma wanted her friend to join her and her other friends; the only way that could happen was for Emma to share her stool.  The lunch ladies sent her to the principal’s office for breaking the rule.

Like most mothers, Emma’s mother wanted her daughter to be a good girl.  She was confused by Emma’s commitment to not being a good girl, at least according to her definition of what it was to be a good girl.  She felt embarrassed by her daughter being brought to the principal’s office for defying the lunch ladies.

Emma wouldn’t back down.  She couldn’t back down and keep integrity with herself.

Emma is a crystal child.  Emma has a mission.  Emma knows her love can heal the world.  The special needs child was lonely.  The special needs child was being treated cruelly by her other classmates.  Emma wouldn’t let anything or anybody get in the way of her mission.  She was going to share her lunch stool with the child who needed her.

“Let the beauty radiate from inside your heart to the outside world.” ― Imania Margria

I explained Emma’s mission to her mother.  I told her Emma wasn’t going to change into being someone her mother wanted her to be; in fact, she’d become even more committed to her mission as she matures.  I explained that Emma’s unexpectedly choosing a big bag of pretty rocks as her birthday gift over a new electronic toy was healthy for her, that the pretty rocks she kept in her room gave off a healing energy that helped her find peace when she returned to a rocky outside world.  I explained that Emma is a beautiful example of what is possible in life, not an obstinate child insistent upon getting her own way.

Emma’s mother thanked me for educating her.  Emma’s mother is now proud of her daughter instead of being perplexed by her daughter’s disobedience.

I understand Emma because I am a much older version of Emma.  I had a near death experience in the late 1990’s that changed me profoundly.  My basic wiring had been altered.  Energy healers looked at my energy system and wondered why my chakras were vastly different colors than the chakras of others who were my age.   Everything about me had changed, including my chakra colors.  My life, as I knew it, had died, and I very slowly have been transitioning into becoming this new person.  Part of my mission is to educate people about who we are and what we do.  We know we can heal the world with our love, and we stay committed to fulfilling our mission.

People often think we’re wimpy because we stand for love instead of conflict.  It takes an enormous amount of inner strength to stay committed to being a beacon of love in a transitional world.

“To shine your brightest light is to be who you truly are.”  ― Roy T. Bennett

The next time I see Emma, I will tell her how painful it has been for me to quietly walk away from longtime friendships with people I have loved and continue to love.  It’s not about my being right and their being wrong, or vice versa.   They all are wonderful people who have their own missions that don’t always mesh with mine.  It’s impossible for me to separate myself from my mission, no matter how much I love someone else.  I think it’s important for Emma to understand that life is a series of opportunities for us to define ourselves by the choices we make.  We are committed to healing the world through our love.

“Nothing can be more hurtful to your heart than betraying yourself.” ― Roy T. Bennett

Maybe you have a child who seems to be too innocent for this world.  Maybe your boyfriend’s extreme sensitivity doesn’t match your expectation of what it means to be a man.   Maybe you’ve become frustrated by what you think are your wife’s overly emotional responses to the cruelties of life.  Maybe people criticize you for needing to spend so much time alone in nature.  Or maybe you scare or confuse people because your healing gifts have made you different.

These people have bravely shown up here to help us all transform into a more loving world.  These people dearly want to be accepted for who they are.

I can help with this.

If you’re open to hearing a different point of view, I’ll soon be offering coaching sessions designed to help you understand, support and celebrate the crystal beings in your life.  Schedule one session.  Schedule a package of four sessions.   You’ll know what’s right for you.  Details will be posted on a new page on this website later this week.

“I find the best way to love someone is not to change them, but instead, help them reveal the greatest version of themselves.” ― Steve Maraboli

In the meantime, I’m continuing my break from the world.  This past month has been quite a journey, and I am noticing improvements in brain function.  I’m not all the way back, but I am able to do more things I haven’t been able to do since the spring of 2012.

I am thankful for each improvement.

Why is this new recovery possible five years after experiencing a life-changing stroke?

The answer is simple.

I am a crystal person.

That’s what we do.

If you want to know more about us, I invite you to contact me for a session.
