Being The Saint Next Door
by Al Diaz
I have taken my time to post this… I guess because I was waiting for the inspired words to write about the subject matter that this post is all about. The fact you are reading it tells me there is something in this post for you also.
I have heard in movies and from others that say there are signs everywhere, and that they are here to support you, guide you, and even assist you. But in order for any of that to happen we have to be aware and open to receive, accept, and experience them.
Somewhere along the line a few years ago I became aware and open to Life’s signs of support, guidance and assistance, and everyday my awareness grows and everyday I see, hear and understand more of them.
I was blessed to have some of the greatest gifts or signs recently happen in my Life. It all began on the evening of April 16th last year when my mom transitioned that afternoon and it was her time to go home of the Creator. To some degree my family and I were expecting this to happen sometime that year, but we just didn’t know when.
To be honest there were many signs that were presented to me and with most I only realized the significance after some time and reflection, and I will share a few with you.
Not long ago my mom lived with us and outside of her bedroom sliding glass door was a garden of roses that she loved, every time they would blossom my mom was thrilled and delighted at the sight and smell of roses, usually though there would be about a dozen roses among all of the rose bushes.
On the evening of the 16th the electricity in our master bedroom went out and my wife jokingly said that this was my mom doing. I went outside to go and check out the breaker box which meant I had to walk past the rose bushes that I mentioned earlier and noticed in the darkness that the bushes had a lot of color in them. After I had taken care of our electrical issue, I again had to walk past the rose bushes and this time consciously paused to literally see dozens upon dozens of roses everywhere! My wife and I stood there in awe looking at this amazing sight and smell. Never in the time we have lived in our home had this ever happened.
A few days later after the funeral services we had a gathering of friends and family at our home where I was going to present a surprise and opportunity for all in attendance. We gave everyone a white helium inflated balloon and had them write a message to my mom. As we were preparing to finally let them all go at once, we looked up and saw a hawk who was floating motionless right above us and staring right down at us, and that is all it did! We all just stood there and stared at the hawk while it stared at us until about 4-5 minutes later I decided it was time to let the balloons go.
Most of the balloons stayed bunched up as the afternoon breeze ushered them skyward, but once they got close by and to the level of the hawk the balloons paused for about a minute and just stayed there. After that minute the balloons went on and passed the hawk to form a Heart and then reconfigure into a smiling face with eyes, nose and mouth, and heading skyward.
This magnificent experience was seen and felt by about 40-50 of us, and today we are all still talking about it and what our perceptions were of the whole event.
Though I won’t go into full detail I know that everything that I have indicated in this post are signs to guide, support and assist me from this day forward and through my mom’s transition.
The hawk being a gift from God read all the messages when the balloons paused in front of him, and the hawk became the messenger for all of us that day.
My message to my mom:
I love you mom!
Together let’s rock!!
For the best and highest good of all…

I met a musician named Jack who grew up in Harlem and played jazz at local night clubs in the 1950’s. “I jammed with my friends a lot,” he told me. “One of them was Charley Parker.” Jack laughed and added, “Just think — I hung out with one of the jazz greats of all time. I had no idea the guy playing right next to me would one day become a legend.”
Jack got me thinking. Every great person, from Galileo to St. Francis to Martin Luther King Jr., grew up as a normal person and did normal things with normal people. Probably none of their buddies expected that these souls would one day change the course of life on the planet and retool the destiny of humanity.
What if someone close to you, maybe your best friend, turned out to be a hero to millions? “Oh, that couldn’t happen to anyone I know,” you might answer hastily. But perhaps the friends of young Louis Pasteur might have spoken equally hastily.
The seeds of greatness can sprout anywhere, through anyone — sometimes in the least likely situation. I know a hypnotherapist who was approached by a man seeking hypnotherapy for his seventeen-year-old son who was having trouble with his golf game. Feeling this would not be a valuable use of her time, she turned the man down. “I’m sorry, Mr. Woods,” she told him, “I won’t be able to see your son…”
Years ago I played in a band with a fellow named Ernie, who was a regular kind of guy. I lost contact with Ernie for a number of years, and then one night he showed up at a friend’s house. When I asked Ernie what he had been doing lately, he offered this astounding account:
“A few years ago I went to see a friend in South America, and one evening a neighbor came to visit. She told me she had a headache, and I asked her if she wanted me to pray for her. I did, and she felt better. That night she came back with her daughter, who was suffering from menstrual pain. I offered the girl prayer, and she experienced relief. The next night the woman was back, this time followed by all of her relatives! Hoping I could be of service, I prayed for them. The next day half the town was lined up for healing. After I came home I received a call from a town representative who told me that the people would pay my air fare back if I returned. So I did, and now I go back regularly; they fly me from town to town in a helicopter.”
Upon hearing this story, my first thought was, “Ernie? Last year a bass player, this year a saint?” I had a hard time reconciling the two pictures, but then I realized I had a choice: I could negate the good that he was doing, or I could rejoice in the blessings. It felt a lot better to be excited about his success than to be cynical about it.
Now here’s the kicker: the saint next door could be you. What is a saint, but someone who lets the light of his or her spirit shine purely and creatively? If you’re not quite ready to go for sainthood, then perhaps you would simply settle for greatness. Or success. Perhaps that book you’ve been playing with in your mind; that song, or that painting, or that labor-saving device, is not some random thought, but a divinely-inspired vision. Perhaps every great invention or seminar started with just one little seed thought, and the difference between living a life of struggle or fabulous success and service, is simply that some people believed in their idea, and others didn’t.
In 1985 I was invited to participate in a citizen diplomacy trip to the Soviet Union, and the organizer asked me if I knew anyone else who would be appropriate to attend. I immediately thought of my friend Patch Adams and sponsored him. On the trip Patch met actor Mike Farrell (of M*A*S*H) fame, and the two became friends. Fourteen years later Hollywood produced a major motion picture of Patch’s life, and it was produced by: Mike Farrell. Little did I know, as I invited Patch to be on the trip, that I was participating in a link-up that would affect millions of people, as well as raise considerable funds for Patch’s free hospital (Gesundheit Institute) in West Virginia.
It is said that anyone can count the number of seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in a seed. Actually, there are an infinite number of apples in a seed; how many actually come forth is a result only of cultivation. At this moment there are infinite number of ideas and talents within you, ideas that can change your life as well as that of millions — who knows, maybe the whole planet. The saint next door may very well be you.
