June, 2025- Mid Year/ Post Memorial Day Greetings!

Another challenging few months earlier this year, but I am feeling grounded –‘in a retired life with David G., my cats, my friends, my art and music (choir) and family…and healers guiding me in person (and in astral!!!).

Finances seem more under control- thanks to careful multi-year individually categorized spread sheet as skeleton for spending calculated for the next 20 years or so. From my younger sister Pam’s daughter, Samantha. And reminders and tips from sister Pam. Brother Malcolm is keeping tabs on most (major) household upkeep and estate and stock and trust finances.

I am becoming more accustomed to not having my father, nor my mom, nor my older sister Bekki in the physical. I am learning to be more on my own- after living 6 years as the residential family caregiver/supervisor at 3 tiered (independent to assisted to skilled care offerings/accommodations and activities) at superior Beaumont Retirement Community in Bryn Mawr.

I am placidly back at choir and enjoying it. My first concert back (I missed one) next week.

I have been working on the above portrait of eldest for their generation Bennett and Nicole- mother and child in a wild (in my picture) Vermont apple orchard last fall.

Also worked on my metaphysical wave abstract organic sculpture at PAFA under Maguerita Hagan…a wonderful human being and teacher…right up my metaphysical alley.

Return to portrait painting at Main Line Art Center was with Bonnie Mettler and she and I and class were so pleased…after much input from all. ‘ Also a sweet, dear, and knowing person and artistic guide.

Two kitties doing great. They are my in person built in family to come home to everyday after afternoon adventures to chinese food, thai food, diners, etc. and nature parks and lakes with David G. Throw in museums as well when we get a chance.

For a couple of days/weeks or so was committing to ourselves and our makers via statements/private ceremonies/ vows to each other. Said by me. Blessed by David G and me in various natural sites. ‘Sounds goofy/ crazy and unreal, but were heartfelt and real in our minds, if not on a legal paper yet.

A few days ago, had a very peaceful presence, with large thanks to my spiritual psychologist ( multi-decade international holotropic breathwork leader- with concentration in Europe and locally and recently, decade in and with China Chinese). ‘Coaching me to rely on my own inner strengths and giving me tools or leading me to find my own inner tools to cope with what arises….as she believes the dark and light are everywhere in so many worlds.

In this respect, I am especially bound to Jesus. I am alive because of Jesus holding me up/holding me by my side and leading me from my past psychological/spiritual/emotional journey- below, above; back and forth- and back now here to a center which i probably never had before.

Before I wrote, I thought you had to accomplish to be justified in your existence in the world or you were to all essentially nothing. Now I was feeling, I guess, whole. Maybe for the first time in my life.

Awaiting God’s will… ‘Growing like a blade of grass.

I wrote I felt still and silent. ‘Not empty, but silent-awaiting the word of God. I did a several minute channeling in counseling zoom presence- my own advice from the greater wisdom containing answers/ statements as to my day to day life and where i should go next and how I should approach things. It was clear, calm and wise beyond my own (of this plane) understanding.

I felt clear then. spiritual counselor suggested I record these words on the phone to refer back to.

Thank God. I am more understood now. Finally.

In my self I AM.

As I wrote, I felt as one.

Felt so clear. Was comforting.

One step at a time.

If not from this lifetime, I am told it has been my path as a widespread wise woman/ oracle of sorts in a past life…in Africa? …-Over a somewhat large area as the conveyor of messages from beyond.

It is what it is. I am what I am.

Finally not hiding my gifts which were misinterpreted.

Are the trials behind? Have I found myself and finally coming home?

I hope so.

So with peace, I greet you. Finally, as I write.

But, I expect the path will “never” end. There will always be trials.

Maybe future challenges in this lifetime for me will be spiritual ones, more than what has been at times (in the past?) almost unbearable emotional trials.

My path to light was interpreted and I integrated interpretation as shadow or sick or dark.

That was me- laid bare. Hidden for 40 years and before. Maybe not so unholy and unlovable at core after all.

And so I walk forward- wishing blessings and the right path of Good Will to all.

If there is evil in you, may you find guidance and turn away to the light which will ultimately conquer all and really is All. You… each of you… are not so insignificant. Great or small. Each hair is precious on the all. There is purpose and meaning to each of you and your every move in, I believe, is the march toward eventual cosmic goodness. Heaven is it called? On Earth.

I believe and writings and teachers including my most constant one of late th believe this is the time of darkness and light head to head.

Side with the light. Grow in the light.

If you do not know what it is, find it and make it yours and make more of it.

I have recently heard the Honorable Dalai Lama orginally of Tibet is very old now and winding down in his activities because of it. (I think.) This confronts my fears and old brittle beliefs of death as final. I pray I am not deluded in my beliefs and “knowing” of the hereafter and life after that. As I contemplate the passing of loved ones and the seeming finite prescription for us humans in physical embodiment and presence, I do pray there is life after this- life after for all as they choose and as is God (the Universe) ‘s Will.

I pray that I can do justice to the life and blessings I have been given, integrate the teachings which this life has taught me and shed grace upon “The Land” and its beings great and small.

May my Oneness with the Divine and Yours, as well, slowly increase and multiply, and may we be a blessing to ourselves, each other, the Earth, Sky, and Wind, the Sea and her beings- also great and small.

Grow in the light. Be in the light. Which grows as you nurture the peace- the God Flame within.

Light the Fire of Deliverance.

Of all Humanity and earth and earth beings to Humanity and Holy Deliverance.

Set your being afire…in peace and stillness, let the blaze grow.

This is our hope. This is our Path.

Allelujah. Amen. Glory be to all.

,,. praise be to all.

with quiet burning love.

Valerie Wha Lin Lee…

“Spiritual strength ” “Chinese Lotus (rising from the Mud to purity)” “

“Itinerant branch or root”

“val.”- hoping for the brilliance of Vincent.

Channeled Message/Transmission-Following… first time public.

Yes, dear one. Greetings, all.

This dear one tries to convey to you she has been through quite a life. ‘Reluctant to share her depths, she edited it.

She has been through what few could bear and even brought her physically and mentally near the brink of death …most recently in this past year.

She knows outwardly she has lead a “charmed Life” as she labels it, but mentally, spiritually, and even some physically now, it would go by most as unfathomable to come through.

In this …through this… she wishes you peace, but we tell her, know and you all know in your hearts that the greatest is LOVE. Abiding silent, calm, true love. Not the love of hollywood romantic solutions which may eventually fail all as we are all human…Spirit Love.

That is all we have to say now…as this one is tired having poured out her soul and touching the darkness and light through darkness and this has left her weary where she was calm and at peace.

“Peace Be With You…in All Ways” ….LOVE. She ended it.

We agree. Take good care of each other and the earth and her beings which are your stewards. Love is the light. The light is LOVE.

Let your light so shine before “men” as they sing in her beloved spiritual musical, “Godspell”.

“Prepare ye the way of the Lord”

And the way of The Lord is LOVE. Simply.

Love never fails.

In Blessings. Amen.

Val- I am done. I wish I could have said that and know that. Maybe I WILL.

Later… Val- Then perhaps this is all hooey except for words of love and I should “return to the world” more. Again. . Who knows?

Greetings again, Beautiful Beings

It’s been quite the year. Dad (Raymond “Mun Hay” Lee) ascended on March 8 this year. My closest uncle (Jack Chun, Harvard travel award winning architect) then after, ascended on June 29. As also did our closest old neighbor, of Beaumont Senior Community in Bryn Mawr.

In mid June, significant other David G and I traveled to the Pacific Northwest– between impressively cool and charming Seattle, the San Juan Islands (orcas and sea lion country) and diverse urban and ecological Vancouver. In my metaphysical consciousness, believe it or not, I was “told” our orcas, whale, sea lion, bald eagle, etc. boat tour around the waters of Washington state’s San Juan Islands was my/our metaphysical joining in wedding of sorts. I almost threw up and got sick to my stomach. As I had always feared for my ultimate joining ceremony in this life. Fortunately, there was no one there to witness this, except marine biologists, said orcas, eagle, sea lions, grackles (?), and unacquainted other passengers. With the kindness of a female guide’s ginger candy and ginger ale and gradually melted Dramamine from a fellow passenger, the speed and ferocity of the outgoing boat let up, and we were soon home free on our Pacific Northwest passage.

Later, I did find out about my Uncle Jack and my neighbor. I went into a tailspin mid-July. It has happened before earlier often in life, but it has been years since I went through so much. Maybe never been through so much.

I’m mostly ok now. Friends, neighbors and family were quite worried about me and seem gradually relieved…. I think my family was still holding it’s breath though and had fingers crossed.

On the up side, after this, David G. and I appreciate each other more than ever. I am learning to live without a Dad in the physical… to come home to and confer with and watch over me. I did not realize what a structure and framework he had given me during my 64 years of life.

Fortunately, now and again, if I concentrate, believe it or not again, I channel. Get sentences, a phrase or two or three or more in my “transmissions”. I used to type pages and pages to myself which dad would read, at times- from ascended guides and masters. Began “training” myself or was called to train myself after deep meditation and epiphany experiences starting at age 18 or so, in the meadow in the nature park (deep woods alone) across the street from home.

Anyway after 45 years, I’m coming out with it. Starting to accept it is as a reality and being told by professionals, it is a (sacred) gift

So, from my website, you can see art is my thing also- ‘Painting classes, but have also taken to photos as a habit of sorts when I take day and other trips. I have only taken one (cell) photography class. I want to keep this pure from my eye and heart without academic intervention. Although, of course, in composition, especially lately, and viewing contemporary photos in galleries, I am being influenced more and more.

My last two classes- presumably second to last course of my PA Academy of the Fine Art CE Core Curriculum certificate program, I was finishing my distribution with a Print Making class. The sunset print on this cover page is from this class. I also took a Colored Pencil with oil and watercolor wash and details class at Wayne Art Center. Outstanding teaching also. These also appear on the top of this page. So so pleased with all of these. Some of my best work.

For Christmas, instead of spending thousands of dollars on airfare and car rental to Paris, we took a quick jaunt to very French Montreal and Quebec city. ‘Stopping at our family “reunion” stomping grounds Silver Bay on Northern Lake George, a quick drive to see niece, wife, and grand nephew in Vermont and then on to Canada, and back through Mass MOCA museum. (Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art…. giant converted factory buildings filled with huge and not huge current art- by groundbreakers.)

Pam and Malcolm and David H. and kids were with in-laws and family in San Francisco and outside LA or others in New England. David G and I drove down from Mass on Christmas and I stopped in on local friends again for good cheer, but after 6 hours driving that day came home to my new kitties for dinner. Hope to see more local friends to celebrate in the coming days..

Snow? A little in Canada or Silver Bay. so driving home we did have a white Christmas. Some beautiful countryside on the way up and back. The freezing cold did not feel like freezing cold after the first night in Montreal.

So, may you and yours have a happy year. I hope this past year was fruitful for you and you are finding contentment here and there. My new aim in life – simple contentment.

‘Am still thinking of volunteering with local toddlers &/or preschoolers. Art (smearing and scribbling?) and some singing if they do that. ‘Thinking of returning to Main Line Singers- after a semester break. Have stepped down from 5 year chair/ 1 year co-chair of the Outreach (Charity/Donations) committee to be a regular outreach committee member.

At 64/65, learning to grow up. Brother Malcolm and sister Pam have been Godsends as have Pam’s daughter Samantha and other nieces and in-laws. Trying to get a handle on my financial independence. I have to get a handle on this stuff. Next step. Hope to wrap my head around more of this tech stuff, too. It keeps moving forward. Gotta do my best to keep up.

Oh yes, Thanksgiving eve I was offered a 5 month old “Baby Cat” and 1 1/2 year old “Momma Cat” and cat-sitting for them when I travel and I jumped at the chance in 20 minutes. With second thoughts now and again as to my intuitive decision, I think I will be keeping them for life– mine or theirs.

Thinking of you all i know- friends, family, healers and those yet to meet!

Well-

Peace, Joy, Light, and Love to You and Yours!

Hoping your days are Merry and Bright!

Wishing you comfort in the hard times and as losses bring change.

Amen. Namaste.

(Shalom. Salaam. Paix. Om, A-ho)

In Christ Consciousness..as I can be…

val.

Love You. (Much.)

Greetings, Dear Beautiful Beings:

Hope your year was good!

These are tough times for many and my faith in humanity has been shaken, but on a metaphysical level, I still know and feel we are all blessed beings no matter how our karma may be manifesting now or the karma we may be incurring. Yes, there is a great and greater good and purpose and energy to all, although we may not be conscious of it at the present.

So, despite this, or reflecting this, it has generally been a good year for me, personally. I recently moved on my own and though this is probably temporary, I am content. My 98 year old father was nearly considered for hospice care 2 or 3 times this year but appears generally content now and at least in the present is in a stable, quiet, more peaceful period.

Artistically, want to do more independent and original work, so, although attending portrait classes this summer, I have been taking many landscape and other photos when on mini breaks during the week or on vacation. Attempting to create more with “professional” markers, (non-fading…keep their value over decades… and had been told by one Fleischer art instructor that this style and medium is my best and most original work). Trying to have fun with it more- without professional academic input. (Although will try to finish my CE Core Curriculum Certificate at noted Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, (painting concentration) with courses in sculpture (foundry) and printmaking by this summer.)

Otherwise, I am Chair/Co-Chair for 5th year or so of the Outreach Committee of local pop/ rock/ Broadway/ jazz community choir, Main Line Singers. I am acting as head of our third donation drive in conjunction with MLS’s seasonal concert. Previous donation drives included a food drive for Love Works food pantry (Montgomery County), pet supply drive for no-kill Providence Animal Center (Delaware County) and now Main Line Art Center (Haverford, Montgomery County)-featuring new art supply donations for community art partnerships and accessible art programs.

So, as you may gather, I am more content- feeling starting to be doing what I was meant to do. Starting 12th year with significant other, David G. Though unspoken, I think we are both enjoying my greater independence, free time, and hope to be able to travel further and farther- say twice a year. We’ll see. (Will have to economize if this is the case).

Feel retired. Occasionally caregiver/sitter for now 19-year-old special needs young man, which I did most pre-covid, and assistant taught at Main Line Art Center since he was 6 years old. He is so sweet and charismatic. He is a gem of an individual!

I am told by spiritual guide/teacher these are to be wonderful years for me. I am to be conscious and acting for my physical health, though- which I must get better at. (Your support is appreciated, if you know me).

So, once again,

PEACE AND LOVE AND BLESSINGS TO ALL.

MAY YOU BRING AS SUCH TO THOSE AROUND YOU… AND IN THESE TIMES, BE A LIGHT OF TRANSFORMATION.

LOVE HEALS ALL. Peace starts within and then can spread.

know peace, val.

P.S. At 7 months, Dad’s first great grandchild, Bennet, is doing well and kicking!

PEACE, LOVE, AND JOY TO YOU ALL.

MY ART– Aspects-

I hope my art works bring you inspiration and comfort. One can come through spiritual and emotional depths, learn from them, and find peace.

I hope this work is a help to you to make steps on that path or ease some of your pain or bring some joy when you see glimmers of humanity, universality, and light in them.

May my art reflect Spirit to you. I have been told I have a synthetic mind and a cosmic, Christ, and “master” consciousness. I am hoping my work conveys a glimpse of this to you also, wherever you find it. (As in my unique many colored patterned “squiggles” which I am told represent interdimensional “astral travel” and/or are derived from a past ancient language).

My art has become more intellectual, complex and technical.  All in all, I think the art is better.  My younger work is fresh and uncomplicated.  In my newer work the lines are cleaner.  In the later work, I learned more about layering.  Color became more subtle. As was the message largely.  How do you compare periods and styles and mediums?  I guess all have their strengths.  Interesting. From fresh late adolescent to educated senior. Click on to my selection of work- most recent contemporary and portrait work here back through 3 decades to the early 1990’s predominant realist nature work in my “Gallery” section above.

Now, I think I would like to express my child / my pure inner being channeled again more.  We shall see…Hope to Tap more into Universal Energy source of All…

(God is Love is All).(All is One).

SO BLESSINGS, BELOVED ONES

MAY BLISS FIND YOU IN PEACE

Peace, love, and blessings to you. May your hearts be full.

Please send Love to all. The Earth and her Beings need You.
