Acknowledgments
I like to acknowledgment the people that made this possible, without their help and offer their encouragement throughout the process of writing this book, it wouldn’t have happened.
Again, my Mom and best friend, Lola Smith without her, this book wouldn’t have happen.
Thank you to Mathew Smith, Molivia Design for helping with the cover to my book.
Prologue
A gatha here! I have rewritten my journals, since Frank and I have been back. Everything was in shorthand, so I have rewritten them into long hand. I wanted to make sure nothing was missed or incorrect in my journals, before I let anyone read them. I also have added things that Frank and I would remember as I rewrote the journals.
This journal covers some of the adventures and the history of the merbeings, all of the information came from them. We used mental telepathy; this is how we were told the stories from them. When we did the connection, it was as if we were there with them. Telepathy is the brain thing
I talked about in my first Journal. I learned this since I have been back.
One thing about sailing; there is a lot of time to write at night, it reminds me of the time we spent on the island. All you hear is the ocean, and the calls of the sea life around you. We learn so much from the merbeings, and enjoyed the ways of the island. You were never in a hurry or too busy just to enjoy the day. We still do this; I think it drives our kid’s nuts sometimes.
As we set out in the ocean there is no land to be seen, every once in a while we think we see one of the merbeings, but once we get closer they are not there. They did tell us, we would never see them again.
Maria, our daughter and her husband, James have joined us a couple of times. She’s always asking to read my journals but I tell her Not now, the time will come when you can.
I want to clean up the journals before anyone can see them. She understood but didn’t look too happy about it. Maria and James, would bring their boat out, and join us for a couple of days. I think they just wanted to keep an eye on us.
Twila, Dennis and our granddaughter Sharlene also came out and joined us. Sometimes Sharlene would stay with us for a week at a time. In the summer; she would stay for a couple of weeks. We had a great time with her and got to know her. She is young enough to believe in mermaids, so I tell her stories about the island and the merbeings, without her knowing they are true stories. It was nice spending time with the kids and our grandkids. But we did enjoy our time alone on the water.
Frank Jr., Wanda and their family couldn’t come out as much as they would like, but we did see them a lot when we were on land.
When the time is right, I hope my journals will be read and enjoyed by everyone!
Aggie
I wanted to add a little to Aggies’s note. The time is right; I have published her first journal. It is called Roslander, The Island of the Merbeings.
It sets the stage for the rest of her journals. The third journal will be out in a few months, it is called Pagon and Imdom, Their story! I hope you enjoy her journals, I know I have.

Chapter 1
T here is so much to tell about the city under the water. It took me a while to find out the information about the underwater city from the Roslanders. Esaw decided to tell me about the wonderful place after we had been here for a few years. I also have talked to the different clans, and asked them about their home on land and their city under the sea. In the beginning they were reluctant to tell me anything, but as the years passed they seemed more willing to tell me about their city under the water.
We have learned to communicate with the merbeing, via our thought waves, we not only can talk to each other, but we can show images with our mines. So when they started telling me about the city, I could see everything, it was amazing. With each of the merbeings I talked to (by the brain thing) I could see what they were doing and enjoyed the different events they attended.
They didn’t use the words ocean or sea to explain the water, all water was connected, the water was one with the merbeings and animals in the sea. All water was called Tahgp
and the water creatures were called Tahgp rhap.
For my writing, I will continue use the humans’ words. I do think it is important to write down their language even if I am not really sure about the spelling, but only what it sounds like to me.
Esaw described to me the city under the water. All the other clans would join together, in the city under the water, which is called Utopia. Each clan would bring their powerful stone that possesses energy from their homeland, each stone was about six foot tall, and each one was a different color. The type of stone was picked by the Green beings, in the beginning. The main stone had to be a clear Quartz crystal; it was the most powerful and the centerpiece of the Circle of Life. They would replace the old stones once a year, with the ones they had brought from their homeland, during the ceremony. Once the circle was completed the energies would radiate throughout the Valley and cover the city with its protection, also protecting the merbeings, and any other creature that lived in the area.
The stones not only protected them from danger it also removed all of their diseases. It also would heal any injury that they may have received from living on the land or crossing the sea to get back home. This would stop any diseases from coming into the Circle of Life, the valley of Utopia.
Chapter 2
F rom my understanding, this has been going on as long as time has been. It started, when they lived with the Green ones, and the humans lived on land. The Green ones help the humans and the merbeings built amazing cities around the world. Each of the cities was built for all beings; Green ones, Merbeing, and Humans alike. The Green ones only wanted everyone and all creatures to live in peace together. It wasn’t meant to be!
So the
