*I sung with you this morning as you awoke and I walked with you in the forest. I will bring a joyful whisper in your ear, a tickle, a hug, a kiss, because I love you.*

Oh, our friend is so serious. Such doom and gloom. Know that you are in the Light of God's Love, my friends, and that your life has much joy in it, so many blessings, so much to be thankful for. I continue to be with you. My friend, I sung with you this morning as you awoke and my friend, I walked with you in the forest. And with all of you, I have touched you with joy and love and will continue with each day that you are together. I will bring a special blessing, an uplifting light, a joyful whisper in your ear, a tickle, a hug, a kiss, because I love you. I am with you. I love you. God bless you.
