EASTER MESSAGES

Easter is upon us again. It's a time for Christians to remember the important messages that this occasion brings to us. It is also a lesson for us all.

The primary message is that God loves us, the spirit is eternal, and that all is forgiven. We are all worthy of heaven. Whether or not you believe in an afterlife is not important. Heaven is here for you now.

Jesus' final commandment to his disciples was this – to love one another. This is the message he preached throughout his ministry. It was described in detail in his sermon on the mount. “Love one another as you would have another love you.”

Isn't this an important message and lesson for us all! Love is the greatest power in the universe. It is ever-increasing and multiplies as we pass it on. It is inspirational and contagious. The gift you give to another is the gift that will return. It is also the biggest gift you can give yourself.

Jesus taught us that this life as we perceive it is but an illusion. We may be in this world, but we are not of it. Our real nature is that we are spirit. That is the spirit of love.

Love is without any conditions. It extends and multiplies. It does not recognize any fault in any other. It simply is our natural state of being and is for all.

Whether or not you are a Christian, you can look at the lessons of Easter in a figurative sense. Whether or not Jesus was resurrected is not as important as remembering the lessons that he imparted while he was in his body. Love is the greatest healing force there is. There is no separation from the source of our being. We are all brothers and sisters. We are one.

To those who believe in the resurrection, there is a message of hope for all. That message is that life is eternal. There is no death.

This is a time to remember great joy. Joy is the essence of your being. It also multiplies as you extend it to another. To follow that path will only lead to a sense of well-being and create the reality of heaven here and now.

Easter is a time of personal connection to what you believe to be true. The answers are within. Whatever you believe will necessarily manifest. Let that be love, joy and peace.

Let go of your strife and suffering. Embrace what makes you feel good and whole. As a human, you may feel broken, but love is the answer. It will create your wholeness or holiness.

I encourage each of you to dig deep and to allow goodness to flow to you and through you. That's all God wants for any of his children. Choose to allow only that which is love to express itself. You are worthy and you deserve it.

Meet All the Colorful and Entertaining Characters of Buscksnort!

Lights! Camera! Action!
Roll Bucksnort!
Here are some zany, fun-loving townspeople you will not soon forget!
You’re guaranteed to laugh, at times even uncontrollably, but you’ll come away from the Sister Mary Olga Series with a definite smile on your face wanting more.

Bucksnort is a little community tucked away in Wisconsin, like any other little town you would find somewhere across the country. It is filled with individuals who offer their words of wisdom, lifestyle, and beliefs through hilarity and laughter. They may not all get along or agree with the same personal views, but they may surprise you with their actions.

Here’s only a few of the characters you’ll find in I, all without spoilers of course!
Sister Mary Olga FortitudeShe needs no introduction. She’s the holy glue that holds the town together. Well, you might be surprised that she smokes Marlboros and swigs some of the unholy Bourbon cleverly hidden in her crucifix.

Sister SamanthaThe sweet, cherub faced sister with a lot on her mind. She had confessed her love to someone close. Will they reciprocate her love?

Reverend Mother Carmen
She knows that there’s something a foot in the convent, but not sure what it is yet. She’s going to get to the bottom of it.

Father Cowberries
He and Sister Mary Olga have much in common and have show and tell quite often.

Randy Cowboy
He’s the convent’s chef and has some serious decisions to make about his life and relationships. What shall he do?

Diddles DinkledorfTrying to keep his mind from his troubles and from a man by the name of Mark Mayhem, he busies himself by making crucifixes for the local sisters.

Lilliliver LipstickShe easily spreads gossip throughout Bucksnort. But will she be redeemed?

Dr. Wally Wacky-Wacko
He may be a doctor, but rarely wants to engage in any real work, he only looking for his next victims, oops, I mean clients. He’s been bribed to declare one of the townies to be not fit to handle her money. Will anyone catch on to his shenanigans?

Priscilla Bunhead
She has sounded a great alarm and arranged a meeting of Citizens United for Decency and Citizens for a Better Bucksnort on Dinkledorf Drive. It’s difficult to keep a secret from this busybody. What will she do next? Will she turn the entire town against them?

Dimples MayflowerShe has only her own personal fortune to look after, namely her spent inheritance. She’s on the rampage against Reverent Billy-Bob Blunthead for taking her mother’s money. It should have been hers! She’s going to seek the help of the law firm of Fiddledee and Fiddledum.

Reverend Billy-Bob BluntheadBucksnort has been blindsided by this fast taking, theatrical reverend and the Born Again or Burn Forever Disciples for Jesus. Will his words of burning in hell convince the town to run out all of the so-called “undesirables” and “gay menace”?

Pinky Poo Blunthead
The lovely, exuberant wife of the reverend that adds drama to the sermons as she is dressed in brightly colored pink suits and faints, at the most appropriate time of course, with the most melodramatic flair.

And last but certainly not least…

Fartley Dinkledorf
Well… I think that he is fairly self-explanatory.

What happens in Bucksnort will stay in Bucksnort until you turn the funny pages of "The Misadventures of Sister Mary Olga Fortitude" (book #1) and "Babes in Bucksnort" (book #2).

All this and much more laughter to come from Author Davis Aujourd'hui !

Unforgettable Fun & Laughter in Bucksnort!, Book Review By Author Jennifer Chase

Review By Author: Jennifer Chase "Author of Dead Game & Compulsion" (San Jose, CA)
Rating: ***** (5 out of 5 stars)
Book: "Babes in Bucksnort": Sister Mary Olga Fortitude Book 2 (Paperback)

You won't be disappointed with "Babes in Bucksnort" because all of the outrageous, fun-loving characters are back in book #2 at the steady direction of loveable, chain-smoking, bourbon drinking Sister Mary Olga. She has taught readers, along with her town of parishioners of course, that sometimes it's important to take a good look at ourselves in order to make a positive change.


There seems to be conflict brewing in Bucksnort due to the range of truly unforgettable characters and their diverse activities. This time, Priscilla Bunhead along with her group of town nosey busybodies with the help from Reverend Billy-Bob Blunthead are determined to run out of town who they feel are perverts and undesirables. Following, is outrageous behavior and fun filled chapters that will keep you turning the pages to find out what happens next.


Aujourdi'hu has managed to create a satire series that will definitely give you mountains of smiles and giggles, but he has also masterfully woven important teachings of kindness, forgiveness, and true acceptance. The characters are vivid and it's highly unlikely you'll forget their names any time soon. There's a delicate balance of satire and reality that I feel that "Babes in Bucksnort" has accomplished perfectly.


If you want a fast weekend or afternoon read that's guaranteed to make you laugh, I recommend "Babes in Bucksnort".

I look forward to the next installment to see what Sister Mary Olga has in store for her and the town of Bucksnort.

SPRING INTO BUCKSNORT

Spring is here. The sap is flowing and the temperatures are rising. Your temperature will rise when you spring into the fictional town of Bucksnort. There, you will meet some memorable characters with whom to further warm your hearts through the gift of laughter.

Start your journey with "The Misadventures of Sister Mary Olga Fortitude". Then continue to laugh your pants off with "Babes in Bucksnort". My zany characters are meant to purely entertain, though you will encounter nuggets of wisdom along the way.

Sister Mary Olga loves her bourbon and her Marlboros, but she also loves to teach classes in Advanced Holiness. Not all of her students embrace her teaching. The lecherous Poopsy Dinkledorf is constantly making passes at her other female students. Meanwhile, his great grandson, Fartley, causes an uproar in her Beginner's classes while he takes perverse pleasure in passing gas.

The ornery town prude, Priscilla Bunhead, wouldn't be caught alive in any of Sister Mary Olga's classes. She has her mind made up about everything. The poor dear wears her hair in the most unbecoming hairstyle. It is tied up in a tight little bun at the back of her head. It's so tight that her mind is closed shut like a steel trap.

She finds others who like to have someone else do their thinking for them when she founds an organization called BUN – Bunheads Unite Now. Together with the Reverend Billy-Bob Blunthead and his Born Again or Burn Forever Disciples for Jesus, they embark on a mission of judgment. Through the use of fear, they trap other vulnerable souls in a spider's web of delusion.

The characters are zany and the situations are outrageous. You will encounter one hilarious misadventure after another. Take a break from your cares and enjoy an escape. Visit Amazon.com where you can purchase both books in either paperback or kindle format.

 You'll be glad you did!

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR LIFE

How many of you have just been an observer of life instead of a participant? Life is meant to be lived. If you sit on the sidelines, you will miss out on whatever opportunities may come your way.

Maybe you don't know where you would like life to take you. At least you have that awareness. The question is, what can you do now? Try to imagine the life you would like to have. Think of whatever dreams you may have had along the way. That's a good starting point. Where do you go now?

Whatever brings you joy is the path to follow. The writer, Joseph Campbell, said to follow your bliss. That is the way to freedom. That is the way to finding the life you wish to possess.

It's not to say that you won't have stumbling blocks along the way. That's just life. The question is what can you do with those in order to keep heading in the direction you desire.

Start by appreciating whatever blessings you currently have in your life. There is a spiritual law in the universe that, by starting with appreciation, you will attract more blessings into your life.

Replace doubt with faith. Let go of your fears. They are the only things stopping you from moving ahead.

Try journaling. Just let your thoughts flow. It will be amazing what you may uncover.

Focus on whatever goals you may have. If you don't have any, consider the gifts that you possess. That is a good starting point. We are all unique and we all have our own precious gifts. We are creative energy just waiting to express itself.

Resistance is not the answer. You need to allow life to unfold. Stop judging yourself. That's not to say that you shouldn't take a look at whatever obstacles have prevented you from moving forward. Perhaps you have an addiction. Perhaps you are unknowingly allowing your past to repeat itself.

There is a solution to every problem. In fact, there is usually more than just one. Live in the solution instead of the problem. That's the way to find freedom.

Pray if that is your habit. Perhaps you might meditate. Talk to others and ask them to point out your strengths. Focus on the positive. The more you do so, the more you will move in that direction.

The important thing is to affirm whatever qualities you possess or wish to possess. Believe that you possess them now. You will be amazed at the results. Nothing will happen unless you apply yourself. You deserve it.

Stop your complaining. It's time to live. Take responsibility for your life. You are worth it! Dreams do come true.

LET YOUR SPIRIT LEAD THE WAY

Why let your ego with all of its insecurities get in the way of going with the flow? Let your spirit lead the way. It is a matter of letting go of doubt and embracing faith. Let go of fear and let love be your guiding force.

All too often in life, you allow yourself to fall into negative patterns that perpetuate themselves. What you put out, you attract. You can break the cycle. Just remember that grace is always flowing your way. It's up to you to claim it for yourself.

Practice awareness of your thoughts. Observe them without judging them. Allow yourself the freedom to choose the ones you want. Take responsibility for your life.

It all starts with your thoughts. Discard the ones that don't serve your spirit. Embrace those that enhance it. Then you will send forth rockets of desire that will manifest those things you wish to possess. Positive thoughts will bring positive results.

Now, it's time to put into practice the principles you are learning. You are not in this life alone. As you let your spirit and love be your guiding force, you will attract more of the same from others.

Do not attach any conditions. Appreciate what is and do not dwell on what has not yet manifested. It is all a matter of accepting that life and people are inherently good; so are you! Remember, the Source of your being only wants the best for you. It is up to you to believe that.

Consider the following. Will you be empowered by a particular thought or action? Will you feel “good” about it? Is it a loving one or is it based upon a selfish thought or desire? Are you following The Golden Rule which is to do to others what you would have them do unto you? If you can answer yes to the following questions, you will be coming from a place of love.

You have the choice. You can create heaven for yourselves or you can create hell. Why would anyone choose to create the latter choice? Heaven can be yours now.

What I am speaking about is leading a life based upon spirit. It does not necessarily have anything to do with religion. All you need to do is to believe in yourself and that there is a benevolent power in the universe. This power only wants the best for you. Yet it will not manifest if you don't put into practice the principles of which I am speaking.

There are only two forces operating in the universe – love and fear. It's up to you to choose. As it's been said, there is nothing to fear except fear itself. Let the power of love be yours today.

Remain aware and do no wrong. If you make an error, remember it is correctable. It simply means it's time to admit you are wrong and to forgive yourself. Practice the same love for yourself that you would extend to another. Do not be your own worst enemy.

Stay in the moment. Affirm and practice that which is positive. Always let your spirit lead the way. The results will be amazing.
