My background is that of Executive Secretary for the local Electric company (11 years).

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.

Breathe/Be Only Love.

My Past Story

The first thing I would always tell a new doctor was 'my dad left me when I was 10'. He just disappeared, ran away. It was pretty awful for me. I thought it was my fault as most kids sometimes do. I thought I was unlovable. Years later, 20 maybe, I realized it wasn't just that my dad left me that affected my life, but also that my mom stayed. She stayed and I'll be forever grateful. However, her staying wasn't all peaches and creme. She was so hurt, so distraught, so frightened to raise three kids on her own and find a job that it was very hard for her to be there for me and my needs. I chose to shutdown, be quiet and try not to make it any harder on her as to not ask for much, or voice much, or need much.

Years later, in 11/12th grade, I noticed my fingers being really cold and hurting all the time. I noticed them turning purple and the pain was very 'loud'. Humorously enough, I had chosen to be a secretary and typing was a big part of my everyday. I loved it even. Fingers flying across the keyboard with as little mistakes as possible was the goal. I was pretty good at it. While in typing class, I remember putting my hands on my neck to try to warm them and make them feel better. I was naive enough then to think this must be happening to everyone.

Anyway, years went by and nobody was able to tell me why this was happening or what to do to make it better. Then, approximately 4 years later, I remember (what I felt) was little me sitting across from a really big doctor at his really big desk and him telling me I was allergic to myself. Of course, this was him describing to me what auto-immune meant. I had a disease called scleroderma and it could kill me (sometimes in as little as five years) and I would most likely be on medicine and have it for the rest of my life and there was nothing to change it.

Anyway, almost 30 years later, I've had my share of pain and I'm alive. I've had ulcerations on my fingers and I have lost most of my nails on both hands from lack of circulation and producing too much collagen. My hands are somewhat not a pretty sight and to hit something with one of my fingers by accident (well, I refer to the feeling as 'going to the moon).

When I was about 30, I started looking at alternative medicine and I tried anything that came across my path to try to stop the pain. I have tried many normal and not so normal 'ideas'. I sometimes do not believe at what lengths I went to try to ease my pain and suffering!

This is what has brought me here to this point in my life.

I'm grateful to be able to learn so much about myself and life and I wouldn't take it back (well, some days I might want to).

Something was telling me to blog. I really didn't know much about blogging - I am still a novice at best. Approximately 5 weeks ago, I sat at my computer and started typing.

I am surprised at where my blogs have led me. I thought I was trying to help others and that still is a big goal of mine. However, what I am finding out is that this is a great outlet for me.

A way to feel like I'm doing something. I told a friend this morning about my blog and I said that it's draining because I put everything out there and do not hold back as I post each individual blog; its fun because it does give me an outlet and I feel a little purpose in my life; and it's scary because I don't want anyone laughing at me or telling me that I am completely 'off my rocker'!
