Santa-John’s View from the Bridge
by Santa-John McDaniel
The View from the Bridge is an opinion piece which explores how political, societal, and other changes may impact the future.
Welcome Back, Actor-Artists of the World!
As we’ve previously explained, we are all artists who are experiencing life on this magnificent planet we call Earth.
What we added last time is that in addition to being artists, we are all also actors performing on stage.
William Shakespeare reminds us that all the world is a stage. We transition onto this stage at birth and transition off stage at the death of the body.
Stoic Roman-philosopher-king Marcus Aurelius, reminds us that death is as natural as birth. This seems to agree with Shakespeare’s “stage” assertion.
Finally, there are the numerous near-death experiences reported that demonstrate that death is simply a transition to another realm.
We then plan our next performance. In essence, between incarnations we meet with our soul family, visit with friends and family, and collectively plan our next incarnations on Earth.
How is Santa John doing?
As I reported last time, the dogs and I found sanctuary at a Psychic School, the Home Spiritual Center in Salem, Oregon. We were given permission to become night watchman with dogs.
The unexpected answer to prayer.
A little background. Our two companion dogs, Charlie and Chacha, are very disruptive. They have caused us to move a number of times.
The last two times we had no way of moving the 5th wheel motorhome we are living in. We don’t own a truck. We hired a moving company to move us to the location we are currently in. A very nice park that is close to our church.
Within a short time after moving in, our dogs were disruptive and banned from the current RV park we are in.
As a result, Holley and I thought that the best solution for all was for us to rehome the dogs.
To be honest, I resisted that decision. I hoped to be able to train Charlie to become my ESA, emotional support animal, and eventually my service dog. I am losing my hearing and have a doctor’s recommendation for a service dog.
Charlie was a 35lb Golden/Shepherd. That is what some call a designer dog. A high energy dog that loves to run. I concluded that Holley and I were not going to be able to provide a suitable home for Charlie. Holley had already reached that conclusion.
When I stopped resisting the notion of rehoming Charlie, I told him I loved him, and that’s why I was working on his behavior modification training.
At the same time both Holley and I were praying for the most benevolent outcome in finding Charlie a new home. However, we found that most shelters would not take him because of his nipping history.
That’s when shock and awe happened. Charlie broke free, ran into the street, ran into a car, and died instantly. I picked up his lifeless body, took him to a vet, who pronounced him dead.
I took him home and broke the news to Holley. She was devastated, to say the least. The following day we took his body to a funeral home to have his body cremated. Then, a few days later we poured his ashes into a flowing river he loved to play in.
All of these actions have led to a series of blessings we’ve received. More on these blessings next time. They are still coming.
Why?
Why are we sharing these events? To point out that the Universe is in control, and we should not limit how we receive blessings. Remember, all things work for the good, even if I don’t see the good immediately.
With that in mind, my prayer is “I request the most benevolent outcome for the 2024 election for all contestants in all races. Thank you!” Now I will do what I can, and vote. Attention guides and angels, you have your marching orders, spread the love!

What is Coming to the View
- More how-to videos. Some updates from the archives.
- An update to past articles in past issues.
- Some focus on the future of transportation, EVs in particular. Let’s not forget that starting 1/1/25 all new cars offered for sale in California must be electric.
Summary
Everything is a creation of the One-Force. So, if you love God’s creations, be sure to include yourself in that love.
Do not fear the future. It’s being handled by forces much more powerful than any of our latest, greatest weapons.
During an election year, I ask any politician that asks for my vote, what’s in it for me and my friends struggling through this life. Why should we vote for you? What’s in it for us and the World we live in. Oh, and stop whining, just answer the questions!
For us, just get out the popcorn – watch the show – and vote! Be assured we are living in a Hallmark movie with a happy ending!
In Short
We know all things work for the good, even though we might not see the good at the time. We also know whatever we plant in this realm we will harvest. Plant corn seeds, harvest corn. Plant fear in others, harvest fear of others. Moral – plant and harvest Love.
For now…Thank you for your attention. Keep in mind that we don’t know what we don’t know. So, don’t take our word for it. Meditate and find what is right for you.
Sorry this article is so long. To quote Mark Twain, “I didn’t have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.” circa 1871.
For 2024 and beyond, we pray for peace.
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, we will know peace.
