Alone or All-One?
A Personal Update from Verena
& A Request for Housing Tips
If you have been reading between the lines over the past two years, you may have gathered that I was in the process of purging. Well I was and will continue to do so for the rest of my life! One major purge, however, included my 15+ year marriage. After much intensive coaching, personal work, and solid legal representation, we were officially and harmoniously divorced on 6/15/10.
My new status is not "single" or "alone" (except for my daughter).
I do believe I am instead, "All-One," as my coach Mahalene Louis calls it. I
have made a sacred marriage with my creator and am enjoying feeling complete unto myself. I no longer believe that I "need a man" (or a husband) to make me whole. How liberating is THAT! I never did buy the Adam and Eve story ever since I was a little kid. I drove my mom crazy asking why, in fact, did Eve need Adam in the first place? OK, relationships can be yummy and productive, literally, however, I do not believe I am defined by the man I keep or "by the company I keep." I chose to make myself good company by being 100%, as in, 100% in integrity, the whole purpose behind the Path of XPR!
On a technical note, I will continue to use my professional name, "Verena Visser Aibel." By the way, I have a few nicknames: "V" or "VV" and am also fondly known as "Verena Eagle Laughing" in some circles.
What about our great blue Dutch Colonial home with the "lemonade porch" you might ask? Some of you have had our coaching sessions there or joined me for tea on a sunny day. Well, as part of detaching from major ego attachments, and, as part of the property settlement, we are selling our marital home. We could be closing by Oct 30th. I'd like to keep my daughter in her local school (Fairmount) so she can complete her 4th grade year there. We have started the process of letting people know we would like to hear about local housing opportunities. See our Wish List below...
Please let us know if you hear of anything, even if it's through an agent! I am using our Realtor, Nancy Price of RE/Max, to show us properties that involve other agents. Call me at 201-487-6910 or 551-486-7365 (cell) or email me at Verena@VibrantCoach.com.
Verena and Delphine's Wish List for our next Home
- Location Preference #1: Fairmount District, Hackensack (Bergen Co.)
- Location Preference #2: another nice neighborhood in NJ (you can make suggestions if you like!)
- Size: 2 bedroom apt. in 2 family home, condo, townhouse, or home (we would consider house-sitting)
- bathtub & shower (need my bubble baths by candlelight!)
- porch & yard & access (obvious)
- "light" & clean environment
- nice views from windows
- quiet surroundings
- cats, OK
- Ideal monthly rental: $900-$1500/mo.
- utilities included or reasonable
- covered parking spot a plus
- Available Oct 1, 2010 or Nov 1, 2010
Thank you for your good wishes and forthcoming tips!

Quote of the Month
Life Never Fails by Hearts Deesire
I have fallen between the cracks
and landed in the spaces
where love never fails
Beloved, you are my captor
and I am bound by your love
I hear you whisper softly
don't speak. words fail here, just listen
churning on the seas of your desire
I am the rising and the falling
the beginning and the ending
the fullness and the emptiness
journey to the furthest point of your yearning
I am the anguish and the exaltation
I am the grain of sand awakening the pearl
I am the morsel you are tasting
be it bitter or sweet
quench your deepest thirst here
where you think I'm not
I Am.

Animal of the MonthDolphin
My daughter Delphine (which is French for "dolphin) suggested dolphin, a personal favorite.
In German: "Delphin--Kraft des elementaren Leben: Der Delphin huetet den heiligen Lebensatem. Er steht in Verbindung mit dem grossen Geist und wirkt als Bindeglied zwischen Kosmos und irdischem Leben. Astrologie: die Kollektiv Planeten, Uranus, Neptun und Pluto."
Translation: "Dolphin--the power of vital living: the dolphin guards the sacred breath of life. The dolphin stays in connection between the cosmos and earthly existence. Astrology: the collective planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto."
