    I know exactly what Edna was talking about when she knew she had to write her book. In 2005, I was working with Reiki and channeling. After a year of writing, I realized that I had created a book. I knew, with my entire being, that I had to self-publish a book that would be controversial. Despite my family and some friends shunning me and telling others that I was crazy, I believe my book, "Conversations with Nature," is one of the greatest achievements of my life. Sending loving thoughts to everyone.
