A Snowstorm in the Mojave Desert

A snowstorm in the Mojave Desert.

Joshua Tree, California

Our lives were saved by Maria De Villota, a race car driver from Spain.

8-25-2023

It was 108 degrees Fahrenheit.

Too hot for the dogs and me to walk the trails in Joshua Tree. I decided to drive through the park with Sonny and Rosie in the air conditioned car. Many times I carried them to the car so they would’t scorch their paws in the desert heat.

It’s mostly dirt roads in the desert.

Then some roads aren’t roads at all.

We headed out for Joshua Tree. The GPS was a little tricky as not all the roads showed up on the map. Sometimes it was out of range. The park ranger had given me directions. It sounded very simple.

I turned left and was all of sudden off the GPS and on a road that wasn’t a road at all.

I was driving in what felt like deep fresh snow from a blizzard. My tires spun me around and somehow I got twisted between two cactus trees. My car was stuck. We were stuck. Sonny and Rosie waited for me to do something.

I got out of the car. The sun and heat were blistering. I turned around, and all I saw was desert. Everything looked the same. I also saw a deserted car fender.

I tried not to panic.

I got back in the car. I looked at Sonny and Rosie who would not survive this heat.

They just looked at me expecting me to get us out. They were both so quiet. Too quiet.

For a split-second I thought, “I didn’t think this was the way I would go”. I actually thought we might die.

Holding back tears, I simply asked for help. “Please help us. Please. You have to drive us out of here. Please.”

That was my prayer. I knew God and Mother Mary would send help.

Then,

I felt someone take over.

It was as if I had a race car driver inside of me. It wasn’t me driving. I was watching my hands and feet drive the car in an amazing way.

I was watching me drive. She (I could feel that this presence was female) drove my car like a bat out of hell. My hand was shifting and my foot alternating between the gas and brake—so fast! I could hear the loud scraping of the cactus trees on the car. Like nails on a chalkboard.

She got us home.

I don’t know how she knew where to go. I didn’t even have to tell her. She was an astonishing driver.

When we got inside, I laid down on my yoga mat and just cried. I cried with deep deep gratitude. I thanked God, my guides and angels, and the entire universe for saving us. They sent me a race car driver. I thanked her too.

Somehow I knew it was a female being that drove us. With shaking hands, I googled “deceased female race car drivers”. When I saw her picture I immediately knew it was her.

And the next day in my meditation, she came forward.

Her name is Maria De Villota. I had never heard of her before.

Tonight, I felt a very palpable presence: “write what happened”. I looked her up again to make sure I spelled her name correctly. Her whole story and more pictures came up on my screen. She was born January 13, 1979 and passed into the heavens October 11, 2013.

(My son turned 21 that day).

She is a famous driver in Spain as she is the only woman to die by a Formula One Car.

She lost her eye in the crash.

She wore a red patch after the accident and wrote a book titled “Life is a Gift”.

Her family created a Legacy for her. They feed those who have lost their jobs, and can no longer afford to eat. She had a heart and solidarity for women to follow their dreams; and she worked tirelessly to make her sport safer.

She wrote:

“My new life goes beyond my dreams because my dream was Formula One and I achieved it. I’m a driver, I feel like a driver. I won this race because I am alive.”

She died a year later at age 33 from heart complications related to the accident.

She is brave and beautiful.

She saved our lives. Her life on Earth saved mine 10 years after her passing.

Much love and deep gratitude to you Maria De Villota.

For some reason she went there at age 33 ; and I am still here at age 56.

Life is a Gift.

My guide had told me that when we wake up there, we will KNOW in a profound way that we had Life HERE.

This is part of her Earth-life story:

Life is a Gift,
