Who is the most famous or infamous person you have ever met?
From Strictly Come Dancing.
On Strictly he had a persona, his laugh will remind you of the upper classes at times, whereas he’s very much an ordinary guy from an ordinary family.
A guy who despite his positive, life affirming attitude, had a childhood and youth that could have easily led him to petty crime at the very least. Not because of his mum, the love and gratitude for her is very clear.
When asked about his youth during a TV interview that reveals the person behind the star, his mantra was ‘just keep moving forward, just move on’. He didn’t want sympathy, he was making his life work and didn’t look back. I took a lot from that.
He can get cross though
I met him at a charity fashion show he was co-hosting with a far less famous newsreader. Although his humour is playful, he didn’t play the big star, he made sure he didn’t dominate, he was respectful.
I was sitting at the end of the cat walk, and he chatted on and off all evening to me and a young boy at one side. Not for too long though, that would have been rude.
I took some images for my happiness book, he asked if I was videoing him, I said no just a couple of photos to remind me of tonight. So he said I’d need his far away, enigmatic, thoughtful, pose. Then proceeded to floor the audience, I was laughing so hard I blurred the first image.
It was genius because I smile every time I see it, which was of course the intention.
What made him cross was the attitude of the organisers at the end, some of us stayed to meet him, and he came straight over. He was talking to us when they started calling him.
He called back that he was just talking to some ladies and would come across shortly, but they kept calling and demanding that he come at once because the mayor needed to leave.
He apologised to us profusely for such rudeness, and said he would not be a moment, pointed to me half way back in the queue and said “And you! Don’t go anywhere!”
The ladies were all round me asking if I knew him, I said no, and they said “he’s really enjoyed chatting with you then.” I had a real pre-menopause moment reaction, a flash of the youth that never attracted that kind of attention. 🤣
It was quite the lovely moment!
He was quite sharp with the organisers “You can have three photographs and make it fast. I would remind you that those ladies are the reason I’m here, they and people like them are the reason for my success, and I don’t expect them to be treated like that.”
When he came back he apologised again and told us how much that kind of thing upset him, when he owed us so much.”
Behind the star
Lies one of the most beautiful human beings I’ve ever met. I’m what we in the spiritual field call an energy worker, we are extremely hard to fool. It can happen but we’re far more likely to have a person summed up actually within moments. I’d give most of us a 90% accuracy rating.
No, we don’t see the bad, we often instantly like those we meet, can see beyond the hurt and stress, and tell you how incredible you really are. People often go away stunned and strengthened by what we see.
I read energy. Anton du Beke is something very special. The hard times have given him an awareness of others, and like many of us out there, a desire to be a better human being. In other words the polar opposite of those who hurt us.
None of us are perfect. But he’s an authentic human.
Nothing special
The ability to read others like a book was well known to my grandmother, mother, and father. Is probably very familiar to you.
People who choose my calling just know about it and hone the ability. It’s one that comes with a great deal of responsibility. The vast, vast majority of us take that extremely seriously; no matter what you may hear.
We have idiots who think they know more than they do, and get caught up in the glamour of being different, but they’re few and far between. To most of us ethics are everything.
If you have that ability, don’t call yourself judgmental, test it, notice how often you’re right, and if you’re consistently right never talk yourself out of what you know.
I married the wrong man that way, and worried myself too often when I knew I was right. 😉
Have a great day

P.S. Politicians only rule life if you let them into your mind. Generally they can be circumnavigated. Big love if you’re struggling at the moment.
