My resolution for 2022 is simple.

It is to not let a day go by without singing at least one song.

That's it! Nothing more, nothing less!

Happy and blessed New Year!!!

 Operacion Consegracion

Saturday, December 11, 2021
8:36 AM

Buen dia! Se dan cuenta que mi operacion de histerectomia coincidio justo con la consegracion a la Virgen que hicimos por 33 dias con Graciela? Y justo me operaron en el pueblo de la Concepcion del Uruguay donde celebraron bastante El 8 de diciembre! Para mi esto significa muchisimo! Yo habia hecho todas las oraciones y reflexiones cada dia pero con ciertas dudas e inquietudes sobre todo eso. Esto todo me impacto mucho y me renueva bastante!  

Me operaron el dia 7 de diciembre y ya el 8 hice la consegracion por whats app. Me bajo la presion muchisimo en el momento cuando me llevaron a la sala de recuperacion y era un momento de susto y muy delicado. Pero no era mi final, si no un renacimiento! Ya a cuatro dias estoy recuperando mas rapido que se podria imaginar. 

Buenos Augurios!!!

Feliz Navidad, 2021!
 

Golpe de corazon!

(Por: Karla Wagener)

Nada puede movernos como la palabra.
Todo Esta dicho en una profunda cancion.
Sentido mas profundo, reside en el corazon.

Cada latido tiene su historia.
Lo vivido cuenta del mas alla.
Deseos lindos sobreviven
En futuros que vendran.

Mi alma canta a tu porvenir,
Esperando tu presencia.
Cada dia un suspiro
Apagado a tu ausencia.

En la necesidad, el regocejo
De una esperada reunion
Que culmina en musica
Y una nueva cantico o cancion.

Tarjeta Navideña para todos.

 

EL ESPÍRITU NAVIDEÑO

(Por: Karla Wagener, Miércoles, 1 de diciembre de 2021

12:01 p. M.)

Podría tener muchas dudas sobre en qué creer, detalles de religión, o lo que me han dicho que es verdad. Una cosa de la que no tengo ninguna duda es del espíritu. Esto es tan obvio para mí y algo en lo que realmente me sumerjo con mi mejor energía y aspiraciones.

La Navidad es una época del año muy especial, conmovedora y profunda que imita el renacimiento y la aspiración. Junto con el tiempo de Pascua y Pentecostés, es cuando se promete especialmente una renovada energía espiritual.

Es recomendable aprovechar esta época del año. Me encanta especialmente la música navideña y esta siempre anima a cualquier ambiente. Hay una gran variedad de esta música con muchos estilos distintos.

¿Qué puede ayudar a atraer el espíritu más de lo que pueda la música? Todos los medios positivos son buenos.  La contemplación es útil, el corazón abierto y la disponibilidad todo esto crean las condiciones ideales.

En un momento en que la renovación espiritual es más necesaria que nunca, envío mis mejores deseos al mundo y deseo a toda la humanidad, diría a toda la creación, ¡una Navidad especialmente espiritual y bendita!

      Con cariño, Karla Wagener (alias "la kar nada")

¡VEN ESPIRITU!  TE NECESITAMOS

My Christmas card for youse 2021

 The Christmas Spirit

(Wednesday, December 1, 2021
12:01 PM
By: Karla Wagener)
I could have a lot of doubts about what to believe in, details of religion, or what I have been told is true. One thing I have no doubts about is Spirit. This is so obvious to me and something I really plunge into with my best energy and aspirations.

Christmas is a very special, poignant and deep felt time of year which imitates rebirth and aspiration. Along with Easter time and Pentecost it is when renewed spiritual energy is especially promised.

It is advisable to make use of this time of year. I especially love Christmas music and it always livens up any environment. There is such a large variety of this music and it comes in many different styles.

What can help attract the Spirit more than music? All positive means are useful and quiet contemplation, an open heart and availability make for ideal conditions.

At a time when Spiritual renewal is more needed than ever, I send my best wishes to  the world and wish all of humanity, shall I say creation, an especially Spiritual and blessed Christmas!

      Love, Karla Wagener (alias "la kar nada")

VEN ESPIRITU!  COME SPIRIT!  WE NEED YOU!

 

Time to wake up guys!

 Songbird

(By: Karla Wagener, Tuesday, November 30, 2021
5:15 AM)

I wake up in the wee hours,
Just before the light of dawn
With my sibling songbirds
Chirping out the new light's songs.

We begin little by little;
First one, then others join in
To form a symphony
Letting joy and hope begin.

It fills the air.
It enters hearts.
All the creation renewed,
And my greatest concern

...Is that it mobilize you!
 

A song poem for Christmas.

 Just another Christmas Song

(By: Karla Wagener on Thursday, 

November 18, 2021, 2:29 PM)

Just another Christmas song,
How can it be made real?
All the hopes of humanity,
All that history can feel?

Just another chanting verse
To be hummed or sung
Another decorated tree,
Gifts in stockings hung.

Just more Christmas cards to write.

Gifts with love wrapped up real tight.

With sharing and such good Will,

We bring on Christmas's light.

Each new year brings renewed aims;
The purposeful plan to pursue -
That the faithful Christmas star
Will lead needing souls to be renewed!
 

THE CUSP OF DAWN

 THE CUSP OF DAWN

(By: Karla Wagener on
Friday, November 12, 2021
7:17 PM)

Awakening at the perfect moment,
Just before the breaking of light;
Anticipating what everyone needs;
Being able to transmit it previous
To any imagined hope

Like tiny buried seeds!

Are you with us
In this great darkness?
Your presence can be felt
Even in the dark that envelopes
All expectations...

Awakening immediately before daylight
To proclaim it's promises and glory!

A surprise poem

Someone who helped us out most (and others too) in times of trouble was Uncle Gregg Wagener. Today is his birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Gregg!

LITTLE BIRDS
(By Karla Wagener)

Waking up at 3:00 a.m. from dreams,
To insurmountable problems
And facing old age,
Which seems to have no solutions...
The deepest, darkest part of the night,
The mind reaching out
To anticipate the dawn and light.
The solutions will come...
The previous sound of music of little birds
Reaching out to my ears
Delving into the deepest regions
Of all the mind can offer.
Conclusions form
And trust in the formation
And promises of light
Give solace even to
The most dire fears.

Words of hope, actions building hope!

 My message today for Pope Francis!

(By: Karla Wagener on
Thursday, October 21, 2021
3:45 AM)

You seem to be asking for
some words of comfort.
What can I say to you?
I can tell you how I went on a
Long, long journey, far from
My birth place, many many
Years ago
Almost the farthest
It was possible
To go!
But the most treacherous journey
Was the inner soulsearching
That I realized along the way.
I went past insanity, jealousy,
Hate, rancour, and all sorts
Of evil spirits,
To come to a state of mind
At peace and reconciled.

It is not so much the
Physical environment
As the healthy wellbeing
That allows me to say,
"There is a renewed hope
That is possible".

I believe all of humanity
Will achieve this wellbeing.

Well, I am going
To drink Mate now
Here in Argentina
Far away from my birth country,
The United States.
It is here where I was able
To meet you
And that makes me very happy,
More happy than you
Can imagine!

I love many people I left behind
And I don't know if
I will see them again.
Thanks to technology
I have communication
With them,
And with you
So far away in Rome.

So I feel we must do
What we deeply feel
And trust that all things
Work towards
A higher purpose.

An early birthday poem present!

 

A Birthday Song for my daughter!

(Thursday, October 14, 2021
3:57 AM, By: Karla Wagener)

I closed my eyes
And saw light gently growing
From some kind of seeds
Out of the darkness.

It didn't let me sleep
And the light turned into
A sort of sound of silence.

It surely is hope growing!
It surely has all the answers
To everything, for everyone
In the universe!

So I got up
To tell you about it
So you will know
When you wake up...

To a new day.
 

HIGHER GOALS

 (By: Karla Wagener on September 7, 2021, after reading the final chapter of Cristina Kirchner's book "Sinceremente".)

We can only reach higher goals through higher energies. 

Put the name you want on those 

energies or abilities. 

I am Catholic, which means Universal, 

but I do not limit my spiritual beliefs. 

There is much more to them than can now be imagined. 

In time they will be revealed through 

great faith and the Paraclete (spirit).

A necessary element for being able to reach higher energies 

is to be open and also upfront. 

Upfront means to be bold, honest, frank. 

An open mind is receptive to new or better information.

A positive self fulfilling prophecy 

through discussions and efforts 

will bring about the conditions to form 

a common body-soul of humanity. 

Music plays a fundamental key to attract 

the higher thought needed for this promised realization. 

So sing a new song! 

Sing many a new song!

September 7, 2021 marks the 100 year celebration of The Legion of Mary 

which is a group that exists like a single voice of love, compassion, and good will. 

My high hopes and efforts go out to 

the whole of humanity on this day!

Sweet dreams!

 

Dream's Prophecy

Thursday, September 2, 2021
5:08 AM

(Lyrics By: Karla Wagener, waking from a dream about Paul McCartney)

I don't know what's gonna happen.
I don't know, no I don't know.
Rain is bearing down,
hurricanes,
Fires all around,
Some 40 wars in the world,
No one knows,
No, no one knows!

I do not know what's gonna happen.
I have read of lifelines and good promises.
When storms, hail and thunder diminish,
A rainbow shines from within.

I don't know what can happen,
But I trust, have the experience
And I can tell you this:
That for the promises and prophecies,
Despite all we're going through,
Peeking from my own front door,
It will be good.
It will be good!
 

The Nighttime's Whisperings

The Night-time's Whisperings

(By: Karla Wagener)
They want to help me!
Hahaha!
It makes me laugh!
Help the stars!
Help the moon!
Do for the hidden beings
That hide within my shadows.
Help my siblings
Or those who have desperate needs;

That is if you want to do for me.

So they want to help me!
Hahaha!
Do they not see
That which brings on
The dawn's first lights?

The poor, we are not the problem!
Rather, give to the rich ...

A pure soul!
 

Perceiving the first flashings of light!

 The Death of  the Night.👻

(By: Karla Wagener)

It keeps getting closer.
The vibrations moving in.
It continues to approach,
Intuition or perhaps it's twin.

Someplace where life begins,
In another dimension, or is it a place?
We grope, flitter, intensely aspire
For the ability to be face to face.

Somehow to spar and win over
The light of a new beginning!
 

THE TECHNOLOGY OF PRAYER

 It has been proven that prayer (any kind of positive thought, whether meditation, chants, songs, written prayers, standard or repeated, even personal expressions, and of course ceremonies and gathering in unity) all have good effects on the brain. 

Even when a person has many doubts, disbelief, anguish or a total loss of faith, doing these technical exercises will bring results more than hoped for. This can calm oneself even in the most dire situations. Believe me! Put it to use! After a long life of many trials the results are in! 

We can attest to the knowledge of the power and greatness which goes beyond all existence. Please note that compassion and appreciation have the highest regard.

Use this technology and you will surely reach contact to higher realms, opening solutions never before imagined and discovering what a true best quality of life can be.

A poem for Paul Wagener's birthday.

 

MATH QUIZ

(Written on May 10, 2021.  By: Karla Wagener. This poem is for my brother Paul's birthday.  I remember once Paul and his wife, Debby, came to Albuquerque, New Mexico, when I still lived there.  Paul said, ¨I'd go to the Sandia Crest in the tramway if you go¨.  For some reason I said no, even though I really wanted to go.  I don't know why I said no and I thought about this many times.  It was an opportunity I had lost.  Paul is a person who I believe has been very successful in life.  He has reached the Crest!  When I think of Paul I think of a person with a good sense of humor and who is terrifically good in Math.  A good sense of humor is a most privileged quality to have, (and is what real success is all about!) Math has got a good name too, but since I don't plan to build many bridges I leave it to the experts!

What about?

All the things we missed out on?

There must be something left unsaid 

or undone?

Patience.

We need patience.

A million, a billion, an eternity

Lay out before our existence -

Calling on us to just simply believe…

And to be pure transmitters

Of all that which goes beyond.

 

So this song goes out to you

With great awareness, admiration, 

and feeling;

You can transmit your knowledge too.

 

Busting out in song and jubilation.

We can find the resolutions

To life's mysterious equation!

Today I have found what my purpose is! It is to help us through this darkest of nights!

 

OH, DARKEST NIGHT

(Written on April 17, and finished on May 13, 2021, by: Karla Wagener)

             ¨Help me make it through the night"                            Chris Kristofferson

     

When this is all over

And the promise of rainbows 

return and abounds;

The sun shines once again;

A greater force flows to heal 

all the painful wounds…

 

When this is all over

And humanity learns

To be better at solving mistakes;

After this darkest hour of intense 

hurting and aches…

 

Never rush a poet's expansion.

Let the instinctive river flow;

¨To everything there is a purpose".

Soon to be seen through 

such darkness 

the son's rising glow!

 

When this is all over,

¨The Meek shall inherit the World".

About the best I can do is for you, Facu!

 

A HUMBLE FAITHFUL HELPER

(By: Karla Wagener on May 7, 2021, Happy Birthday to Facundo, it must be for him on his day!)

The decision to cure is half of the battle.

Belief in eternal life makes it all so refreshing.

 

We don't need to do anything 

particularly extra special.

 

We need to begin to move with compassion like a same single body.

Like I bought a couple of pens 

to be able to write.

Like I woke up this morning 

from dreams as if from flight,

Prayers in my mind, the right words to find

To express and address…

Your attentions and tenderness!

Being and doing for those closest to us.

Making a chain,

Becoming a solidary accord of a gang;

Like musical instruments able 

to survive and play

Sounds arranged amicably 

in a colorful array.

 

In connected harmonious bubbles.

Despite what seems 

insurmountable troubles.

Musical sounds of care, of survival.

Calling upon destiny´s 

most exuberant arrival!

¨You saw me standing alone¨...

 

PHASES OF A SUPER MOON      

(April 28, 2021- 

By Karla Wagener)                                     

             ¨Blue Moon¨    (Mom´s favorite song)

Have you ever seen the full moon?

There are many:

They rule over oceans, storms, madmen and even volcanoes.

The Wolf moon, snow, worm, pink

Flower, strawberry, buck moon,

The August Sturgeon moon…

Many were given names in ancient cultures

Like the September/October Harvest Moon,

Corn or Hunter's Moon,

December's ¨Cold¨

Some years have 13 Full moons.

At least one of them named a Blue moon.

A Black moon defines February's 

Lack of a moon about every 19 years;

A moon which does not fit in

With the equinoxes or solstices.

Eclipses cause red light and a Blood moon..

The full moon has many names

In many different parts of the World.

Yet it is the same full moon.

It occurs when the Sun Earth and Moon 

Are aligned.

They are all the same Full moon.

Each one distinct, beautiful and so powerful!

We do not observe the moon.

She looks over us!

We have her there; can´t give her enough names...

Or capture her fleeting beauty.

She tells us all about time 

And whispers to eternity.

Got it!!!???

 

Reflections on Healing

Sunday, April 18, 2021
8:39 AM

(By: Karla Wagener)

What heals is right in front of us.
You have to believe in order to be open to it. 

Believing helps you apply new remedies.
It obviously goes beyond us. There are more understandings that can and will be revealed.
It certainly surpasses my understanding.
Just like the circulation of blood cures what ails,

so the circulation of spirit heals and cures.
Some ills like skin disorders are not healed 

but can be controlled with patience and consistency.
Old age is inevitable and best permitted to happen, 

and it is best to pace yourself in any task.
When the soul heals, the body heals.
When all else fails...
A little soul searching helps heal what ails.
With a little luck
Someone could come along to save you,
Like when we watched in horror
As a man ran to save a homeless dog in the river,
To discover the dog was only happily  swimming.
So the man took the dog home to be his pet.
Needless to say, they were both healed.
When you heal others, 

You are also more receptive to being healed.

Get it!

 

PIERCING

(By: Karla Wagener on April 15, 2021)

The river within is running through the arteries,

Bubbling and boiling,

Energetic and hopeful;

New life, new beginnings,

Possibilities presented.

 

Feeling the river intensely inside;

Being one with it.

Experiencing its powerful, vital force.

One with the river,

A threatening virus looms over the entire World,

As the appointment is set for the tomorrow´s vaccine.

It is all so very clear;

A transfusion,

An injection of antibodies,

Something must be done!

A necessary change.

Changes to be made.

All of humanity whimpers

At the needle prick

In the dense veins.

Surprise poem!

 

FELLOWSHIP

(By: Karla Wagener on April 13, 2021 at 5:30 a.m.)

A place where I can clearly see rainbows;

Where the river flows smoothly to the sea;

In a point of life

In which we all can be free.

A site that encourages success,

And the profoundness of the soul can express

The perfection of our latent love.

 

It is this place.

We have finally found it.

It is our place.

We have searched so much to find it.

It appears when least expected,

And flutters like the wings

Of satisfied humming birds.

It is here,

Where we are.

Today!

The dreary rain has produced 

Our colorful rainbows.

Celebrate!

 

HAPPY MOTHER´S DAY, 2021

PAT

(By: Karla Wagener for Patricia Screiner Wagener and Mother Nature!)

She loved geraniums, healing aloe, 

all plants and flowers.

Used to pray for everyone, everything

for hours and hours.

Had a special love of antiques, crafts

and humming birds.

She liked to share a drink

Liked to have fun,

Frowned upon excesses or abuses 

which she would shun.

Was so brave against Cancer

But couldn´t be cured.

Humbly died as I held her hand

Without a whimper or cry.

Deep inside she was so very tender.

Till some days when anguish boiled over…

A woman of faith.

Funny witty and bright,

To the point, with few words, 

she would set us all right.

Attempting to give always a good example.

In spite of Wars, economic hardships,

Insurmountable problems, or Old age…

She fought inner devils

So that others could be free,

Named after a Patron Saint 

to whom she could plea.

A so sick, violent world called her insane.

We called her Mom!

For MY dear Pope Francis in memory of my mom and dad!

 

SCRATCHES ON THE SOUL

(By: Karla Wagener on March 31, 2021)

Scribblings turned to song:

An anguished soul

Encouraged to hum along.

Where do sad songs come from?

If not from much hurt and pain.

What takes it to grow gorgeous flowers…

Thunder, storm and rain?

 

Scribblings on my heart

Start to form.

Cannot see Faith's door opening,

But I can feel it.

Feel it!

I have felt it peeking forth.

The presence can be sensed

Of an everlasting peaceful song of hope and love!

An early Happy Birthday to my nieces Jennifer and Robin!

 

GOOD OLD AGE

(Happy Wedding Anniversary No. 45 on April 30, 2021).

(By: Karla Wagener on March 24, 2021, Day of the Memory in Argentina).

    ¨Should I stay or should I go…

      Some things are meant to be¨.

           Song by the Clash.

Receiving others.

Collecting goods.

Harvesting after great efforts.

Sharing plenty.

Reaching a place

Of peace and wellbeing.

Reaching the end of the journey

Laden with gifts to administer.

 

Knowing few arrive

To the maximum goal.
