Love

Peace.  Love.  Confidence.  Harmony.  Homeostasis.  

How does one get it...

I believe I 'get it' best when what is going on internally matches what I show externally from a place of trust, truth, kindness, awareness and owning what I feel, think, and experience.  This, to me, is being my best self, my empowered self and my empowering self.

As I show my vulnerability, struggles and wins, it opens 'you' up to share yours, just maybe.  At least it provides an opening for it to be so. 

When we live with trying to understand instead of judgment, we all win.  When we live and experience life open minded and open hearted and not through putting our own thoughts, experiences and beliefs on expectations of others, there is so much more to choose from, live through and become.  Never ending learning.  How beautiful is this. !

Human living works best when we are true to our innate internal beingness.  It is a gift and awesomeness when we support and encourage others to do just the same.  Live through their own innate internal beingness.  Each one of us has our own trails, roadmaps and paths that are unique only to ourselves. 

May you live out through your own innate internal beingness. 

May you energize yourself by allowing yourself to feel exactly how you feel and breathing into yourself with love...   May you love yourself through.

Love always.  Love anyway.  Love through.  Let love.

I support you to be, know and show the you on the inside out.  

Drop It Like It’s Hot

There have been challenges, changes, questions, about face's, and somewhat difficult information circulating in my life, in my state of Florida, in the Unites States and in our World.  

The struggle is real.  The growth is real.  The challenges are real.  The information is bombarding us.  Our differences are loud.  Our similarities want to be shared and recharged.  It is my hope that from our World to your Country, to your District and to your Life we, together, build from and create into and through our togetherness; our oneness. 

May our lives be and know compassion, love, care, trust, truth, and openness.  May we experience our individual and collective humanity through each of our spirits, our souls, our innate beings.

There is a tenseness in the air forcing us to change, grow, become and do different.  Do better.  Do life more wholistically and mindfully.  

The awareness and truth that is coming up, showing up and being offered, whether forced or willingly, is a drastic change that, I want to believe, is one of our biggest reasons for being here now, on this planet, at this time; individually, together.

It is a very serious time in history.  

I believe and feel that being who and what you are and feel is your best way to maneuver forward and through.  

So with this knowing, I'd like to offer to you - each and every one of you - all of you...

If it doesn’t float your boat, tickle your fancy or support you in a positive way, may you drop it like it’s hot...   ha!  

Gentle Strength

Many of us believe that we have to be strong and fight to achieve, create and get what we want.  I suppose that this is sometimes true.  I also believe that with openness, gentleness and flowing with what we are experiencing, who we are and what we know, life can be had in a very positive way.  

Gentle strength.  Standing strong in who we are through vulnerability, truth, love, faith and gentleness can also support us to achieve, create and get what we want.

May you achieve, create and get what you want through living in your own truth, trust, and ease.  Allowing yourself to fully be with what is [through everything that you feel, know and experience] will allow this to happen best, perhaps.

Sometimes we are uncertain with what we see, experience, know and expect.  Sometimes, it is good to 'just be' and being uncertain is a place that can be just as productive as accomplishing something with our known knowledge of things.

Sometimes life feels like it is 'sideways' or topsy turvy.  It can be impossible to make sense out of what feels like nonsense.

Sometimes, we have so much information being blasted at us, our brains, literally, cannot take in all the information.  

It is okay.  You can choose to be okay.  

Wherever we find ourselves just now, trust the process of life and trust ourselves that we will know what to do when there is something that can be done.  

Sometimes, looking at the whole picture can help us ascertain a better reality of what is going on.   There are many facets to a picture, a story, a person, a thing.

May you be open to the part(s) that complement(s) your soul.   

May you live in the unclear until it becomes clear.

Celebrate

With the way of the world just now, it is not the easiest thing for me to want to celebrate and/or feel so excited.  As I was thinking this, I realized that I can choose to celebrate the little everyday things.  I can also celebrate kindness, compassion and treating myself better and better.  

If you treated yourself with kindness today...  If you treated another with compassion today...  If you turned fear into love today...   If you looked in the mirror and saw ‘beautiful’...  You, perhaps, have a whole lot to celebrate.    

My wish is that there is something or many things you can celebrate today.  

Get to it!  Ha.

Irritated Much

Right there with you.  

What a history making time this is and I have uncertainty in how to tread.   So I take this breath; this moment; and 'do me' from as much love and trust that I can. 

  

At times, I have been feeling like I have to ‘look’ for my next breath and offer to/make it happen.   

It is my hope and belief that as so much 'life' feels like it's falling apart, it is actually falling into place. 

As we stay in our own love, and not worry or fear, as best we can, may we individually, together let this love lead us into a greater greatness than we have ever experienced.   

Hold on.  Let go. Feel free. Be free.  Do YOU.   

BE HERE NOW.    What is your goal right now in this breath...  in every breath going forward.   

I believe as we are forced to feel deeper than ever before and learn and grow from this depth, we are ok even when it doesn’t feel so.   We are going to create through this.  We are living through this.  We are walking forward.  We are finding new ways and paths of being.  We are meeting ourselves where we are as best as we can.   This is what will change the way of (y)our world and all of us in it.   

Underneath it all (or above it all) we are ok.  We are doing this, living through and still love something(s) or someone(s) and, hopefully ourselves.   

May you breathe and feel you are love(d).  If irritation comes, and it most likely will, open your heart to your awesome loving self and walk out from the irritation into and with your breath and wisdom of the current moment through asking yourself  'What is my goal in this moment'...

Whatever is in your life right now, may you bring your truest and most trusting, open self to it.  There is so much in you to allow this to happen if you just 'tap in' to who, what and everything that you are.

Everything you need for this lifetime, you have inside of you to connect out to it.  

May you believe You to be so and able through your own trust, truth, openness and wisdom.  Let the power of your love color (y)our world.  

What You Want.. What You Really Really Want

"Skelly ignored her sarcasm. “He said that seventy-five percent of the issues people have in their relationships—the reason they end up in therapy—is because they just assume things. They assume their partner knows what they want in life. They assume they both share the same values and goals. But you can’t do that. You can’t expect even the person who’s closest to you to know what you’re thinking unless you open up and talk about it in an honest and open way.”"  An excerpt from the book “Hello, Summer” by Mary Kay Andrews.

If you have ever before heard yourself saying that 'he/she should know what I want [by now]'...  STOP.  Turn around and look in the mirror and ask this person if you know 100% correct and all the time what another person wants and thinks.  I believe if we are honest to ourselves, we do not.  We can get it right some of the time, we can guess but we cannot be 100% guaranteed to know.

Ha.  Many times I do not know what I want.  I do not understand things I am going through.  How could I possibly expect someone else to know and understand...

Share what you are feeling.  Speak what you are thinking and/or wanting.  Emote your emotions.  Write a list of what you want another to know if it is important to you for another to know something(s) and you want to get it accurate and have something solid to share with another.

When we openly and vulnerably offer out what it is we want, dream, desire, need and feel, we have the best possible chance of getting it and/or others to understand and to know same.

This is what many of us want; what we really, really want.

So, let us learn how to speak it through practicing same.  We won't always get what we want.  However, we will always know if it will be possible or not instead of guessing, hoping, waiting, etc.   The more we practice, the easier it will be to share our vulnerability, dreams and desires.  

To own who we are and what we want is a good thing always.  When we come from love and openness, truth and trust (in ourselves and others), we all win.   

Put what you want out there.  It is our very best chance of us receiving what we want.

Most of us want to help and support others to get what they want.  Most people want to help and support you to get what you want.

If it is possible, this is the best way to make it happen.  If it is not, this is the best way to know for sure immediately.

May you ask for want you want through sharing your feelings, thoughts, dreams and desires.

Oh, may you get it.

And if not, just maybe, there is something better that awaits you.  Maybe the timing or circumstances are not concurrent with what is best for you just now.  Maybe there is another way to go.

Trust that what you want is okay to want it.  Your desire is true, real and acceptable.  There are real reasons for your desires.  It is your job to go after what you want.  If you do not, how will you get it...

I wish you what you want; what you really, really want.

"If you can dream it, you can achieve it."  unknown

I May

I am ready to sit in my pain because that is where I find my true and best self.

I am ready to sit in my pain because that is where I am.

I am ready to sit in my pain because that is where my true and whole self resides.

I am ready to sit in my pain because that is where I find my whole self.

I am ready to live through all of me.

In this I am whole.

In this I am fulfilled.

May you sit in your own pain (when pain shows up) and allow, know and be your whole self.

May you go 'home' to You.

May you grow yourself complete; again and again and again.

May you fulfill all that you are.

May you open up to your full self; through allowance, trust, love and ease.

May you know fulfillment in making friends with your pain.  May we follow ourselves into it, through it and out of it.

There is so much information in our own pain.   May you hear, listen and lovingly respond.  

Sometimes, when we reach the 'end of our rope', a best and new beginning happens.  

Breathe

Just breathe.

Be.  

Relax your whole body.  

Relax into yourself.  

Let go.  

Allow what is.  

Just flow.  

Feel.   

Open your heart space. 

Love. 

Open your mind.  

Allow yourself to expand into peace.  

Sit in your truth.  

Trust the process of life. 

Trust yourself that you can handle ‘it’.  

Just Be U.   

Breathe...  and know that you are.  

May you just do You. 

 Love yourself every time you realize you are not.

Follow Through

There is something that keeps popping up in my mind, so I'm going to go with it and share it here...

I was once offered that, perhaps, when I say that I'm going to call a person or do a thing, that when I don't I'm, possibly, not only letting someone or something down or undone, I am also letting myself down and/or undone.  I'm hurting myself.  It is as I am promising myself to do something and I don't do it.  It is lying to myself; not following through.  

May you realize if you are saying things that you do not take heed to or follow through.  May you support yourself by your own awareness of your own self talk.

Do you follow through or do you let yourself down...   Just awareness.  No harsh judgment necessary.  Perhaps, if it feels right to you, 'play’ with this going forward.   

One can choose to not say certain things or to change it up or to follow through.  

Good luck.  You matter.   Treat yourself in a way that you feel like what you say and do matters wholly.     Because it does and You do.   

Trust Thyself

I'm having a moment where I do not feel sure of my ability to do what needs to be done.  I hear myself asking if I have enough energy, stamina, insight, foresight and strength to do what needs to be done.

I know this to be done is something that I'd rather not do.  Is this why I question myself...  If this was something that was fun to me, would I be feeling this way...

Inside of myself and deep down and above it all (or is it below it all), I know that I will get to the side of what needs to be done is done.   And before I am doing it, I am letting the thought of same weigh heavy on myself.

I am breathing.  I hear myself saying positive self talk like I am calm, I am cool, I am able.  I will do this my way and all will work out.

I am also hearing negative talk like I feel abandoned, I don't want to do this, Why me, and I am in this alone.

So, with this awareness of where I stand just now...  What is a woman to do...  !

I breathe.   I know I am prepared as very best I can be.  I know I will bring my truth, my love and my wisdom into what is to come.  I know that most of the people I come in contact with will be kind and caring, helpful and they are just doing the best that they can do also.

I tell myself right here, right now, I am fine.  I am good.  I am doing this moment and in this moment, all is well.  

It is my hope that being kind to myself becomes just one thing I always am; kind to myself.  I am open that when I hear doubt or feel fear, I say here is this feeling again and I can change it by being here now in this breath and not in a what if or how mindset.

Trusting the process of life and trusting myself to be here for me now in whatever capacity feels best and most kind and true.

I am learning a new and better way of being in a new and different world.  By bringing the truth of me with me and my belief in my capability that my truth will open the exact doors and windows to the best paths forward [in every situation and experience I find or place myself in], I walk more confidently.

I have me.

May you know that you  have you and by living out through the truth that is within you is the most badass way to live.

It empowers.  It empowers ourselves, each other and the world.

May you get empowering and empowered.

"Just Be U".  "Just 9Be U".   "Grow Yourself Complete".

Live exactly through what you feel, what you know, how you are, who you are and let YOU BE so.

Inspire Yourself by being true to yourself and allowing your truth to lead you through kindness, love, strength, courage.

Many of us are having to create new and different ways.

Keep the you that you are with you from the gentlest and truest place inside of you.  Perhaps, this is the greatest strength we can tap into and live from.

Expand open and out from deep within.   Innate knowing and living on.

Just Be U

With so much information, experiences and situations demanding our attention, it seems to me that living from our own stance of truth is what empowers ourselves which, in turn, empowers each other which empowers our world.   

There is no better time than now [while our world and many of us can feel in disarray and chaos] to build, create, live and breathe a better and more divine life and world.   

Out of the unsettled and unknown comes the settling of what is known inside of each of us.  We must dig deep, listen in silence and feel our way forward to best do what is next for us to do.  

There are many custom shapes, sizes, designs, colors and ways that are shown and infixed to us throughout our lives.   

To balance, involve, disengage, create, recreate from what we know as our vulnerable and loving truth is to experience life through our most fulfilled and best way possible.   

Life is always in a state of flux, change, lessons and gifts that each of us experience through who we are, what we have been through, how we think and what we believe.   

You have a choice. 

May you empower your choices through the true, gentle and collective strength of You.    

Live your life.   You are the one that can do it best.    

May you step in to all the parts of You and live from this place of You.    

Get your true, innate, feel good, naturally flowing you on.

May you find fulfillment in accepting and living through all that comes up to, for and through you.

May you enjoy what you have and where you are as you create where you are going and who you are becoming.  

Namaste. 

Golden

Gold.

The spiritual meaning of gold is "the color of success, achievement and triumph. …At the uppermost level, this is a color which is associated with higher ideals, wisdom, understanding and enlightenment.  It inspires knowledge, spirituality and a deep understanding of the self and the soul."  google

May you envision your vision through the color of gold.

"A gold aura indicates that you are connected to a higher power, or that you have a strong relationship with God.   ...Gold is the color of the higher mind.  It's the color of the visionary and of high spiritual vibrations."  google 

Gold can illuminate and inspire.

Gold can give off warmth and soothing vibrations.  It can aid in healing.  It can help the body relax which enables the blood vessels to expand and open which allows a better blood flow.

May you get your gold on... 

Shinin

When I was in my 20s, I had a license plate that read 'SHININ'.  I felt that I was a shining personality and this was my 'cool', twenty-something brain's way of sharing it.

The world has not lost its shine.  It does feel as if its shine has dimmed.

I want to believe that my shine changed directions some and, yes, has dimmed some and yet, my shine that is present allows me to be in my zone and be my loving, true self through and in all emotions that show up to 'play'; within my every day life and experiences.

May you let your shine be what it is as you feel whole, complete, and true with gentle strength to be who you are and who you want to be.

You know you got it if it makes you feel good. 

Sometimes, it feels like we can't get any satisfaction.  Just maybe there is a different road to be had or to walk down when dissatisfaction shows up.  Stay in whatever shows up and your 'shine' will shine through.  It has to.  It is the human spirit.  Your shine is your soul; your innate knowing.  Your shine is your reason for being.

May you shine on; shine in; shine out and share your shine.

May we all shine on; and on and on and on....

My Little Fruitcake

LOL!   It has come to this!   I held my little Tiffany  in my arms this morning, kissed her and called her ‘my little fruitcake’.  

Oh the new, creative, silly, unknown, unbeknownst, and 'laying deep' within myself is coming out; coming forth; and showing up.

I feel sort of in a stupor where my mind and my body are playing games with each other; fooling around and being jolly.

There are new friends/beings/thoughts to play with and they are all within and of myself.

There is now a new dawn, way, life, experience and foundation of our life’s journey being offered to you and I.

The only thing that limits us is us.  The only thing that limits you is you.

May you open up to the new true self that has been dormant inside waiting to spring forth.  

Uprise into the new, creative, silly, undocumented, unprecedented You that you were born as to [again and now] create the purposeful reasons that you are here to live out.

Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes, may you rise from deep within yourself.

When we are happy and content, there is no ‘bark’ or ‘bite’ within us.

May you bring your loving and vulnerable truth into everything you do and every breath you take.  

Waggle, wiggle and swag....    Unlimited possibilities are Yours.

Let your wildest dreams ‘play’ out.

Out of This Conundrum Comes Beauty and New

There are many of us feeling conundrums..."mysteries" "puzzles" "puzzlement' "why" "mystification".

I know that I go to bed every night and wake up every morning wondering how to make sense out of so much non-sense that I feel is showing itself.  I think and feel it and then I let it go as no answer other than 'walk through it lovingly and truthfully' comes to mind.

Much is a mystery, a puzzle and I find myself  living in a feeling of puzzlement.  Life is mystifying. There is no clear, concise, or easy answer [that I know of] to the question 'why'.  We are creating anew the why, how, who, what and when of the future, today.

Our world will never be the same.  I believe this is a good thing.  I believe out of these conundrums, good, new and beautiful will emerge.

May you let the good, new and beautiful that is [in] You emerge and complement this good, new and beautiful world that I so want to live in.  I think many of you do too.

A world that supports us all; lifts us all up and shows compassion for all living beings and creatures.

Individually, together we can and we will build a new system of human interaction, human beings, humans doing and humankind into a whole new way of being a human race; worldwide.

My wish is that you, too, can believe it to be possible.  Or at the very least be open to the possibility of great possibilities.

Your part, your life, your vibration, your love, your knowledge, your understanding, your innerstanding, your care, your compassion, your calling is being asked to participate, create and become all that you are and share this awesomeness that is you into everything that you do, are, and bring and carry forth.

Oh the beauty and new way of YOU.

The world awaits You.

Thank You.

Tension... Free

How many of us check in with ourselves on a regular basis...  How many of us do a body scan, take a deep breath and/or check in with what is going on with our muscles, our minds, our pulse and our energy.

It just may be a good thing to do just this.  To check in; do a scan from head to toe and notice what has tension, what is uncomfortable, what is comfortable and choose to become tension free from within.  No harsh judgment.  Just a gathering of information and letting go.

Are you shoulders up to your ears...  Is your face; your jaw; your brows and forehead relaxed...  Are you breathing deeply or shallow or somewhere in between...

Perhaps, you can choose to take a few deep, long breaths into your belly. Perhaps, you can choose to relax your shoulders and let them fall.  Perhaps, you can let a wave of relaxation fall over you from your head to your toes...

Let whatever is underneath you just now totally support you as you let yourself become heavy and relaxed.  Perhaps, just for this minute, there is nothing you need do but breathe, relax and let go.

What a gift this can be.  Just what if this, right here, right now, could be the most productive thing you do all day...

Thank your body for supporting you.  Thank the chair, bed, ground, earth for supporting you.  Thank yourself for checking in and releasing any and all tension; just now and from time to time.

Perhaps, you can fill yourself up with love.  Imagine your cells talking to each other and having a party of celebration as they all talk to each other and work cohesively together to create and honor the healthiest you possible.  Imagine your mitochondria (energy making part of each cell) blasting out new, strong and healthy energy.  Imagine your body, mind, soul and spirit working in unison for the best and greatest version of you.

Vibrating High...  Tension Free.

May you imagine it, invite it, allow it and may it be so.

My wish for You.

Our bodies are the most powerful healing and working machines that, just maybe, we were not taught the truth of how truly powerful we are.

Claim it.  Claim your health.  Claim your awesome.  Claim your calm.  Claim your energy.

Claim the you that is inside of you to live vibrantly, fully, lovingly, and awesomely.

Let go of the tension and let the energy of same fuel your highest self.

Empower the powerful You... with ease, truth, love and by simply...  just being/living/vibing the true You.

I wish you a tension free, joyful, empowered, easy version of living   Being You.

It is right there within you.  Honor, Know, Love and Be Thyself.

Moth

A moth came in through a tiny opening of my sliding glass door today.  I tried to help it back out and it was not having it.  It is somewhere here still visiting.

Of course, I had to look up what moth can represent spiritually.

This is what I read:

"The moth meaning resonates with truth.  It represents the truth that you cannot see because you are in the dark, but when everything else is illuminated, it all becomes clear as day.  … The meaning of the moth also represents your faith and determination."  google

May you let your faith and determination be enough until clarity and the [great] truth come through the darkness of our world.  May you let your faith, determination and love be the light.

Spotlight

Mostly everything is in the spotlight just now.

If a spotlight was on You..  Would you like what You see...

I'd like to offer to place your own spotlight on your own breath just now.

Are you breathing through stress...  Is your breathe shallow and quick because of this...  Are you able to breathe slow and steady with a peaceful calmness, trusting the process of life and yourself...  Are you breathing just now and aware that you are...

Perhaps, note if your breath is cooler coming into your body and warmer going out...  Are you breathing deeply into your belly to help keep yourself centered and at ease...  Are you ugly breathing like a bull from an anger or rage that is taking over you...

Whatever and however you are breathing, may you just notice it without judgement for now.

May you bring your full breath and loving truth into everything you do, say, see, think and feel; as much and as often as possible.

If the spotlight was on you, what do you wish to be seen...  Grow into this.  Transform.  Evolve.  Become. Adjust.  Alter.  The You that you would wish to see spotlighted is already you(rs).  What if all that was needed is your claim and permission to be the self that you continue to be proud of.

"You Know You Got It If It Makes You Feel Good."  Janis Joplin    A really and true feeling of good that makes you shine.
