The Choice

When it comes to your life, it is only you who can choose which path to walk on. You can ask for reassurance, advice, and support, but the choice is yours.

Just Because...

Today, do something nice for someone, just because. There doesn't need to be a special reason to surprise someone with a gift of any kind. Be spontaneous and follow your gut, whatever comes to mind. What you give always comes back to you multiplied.

Stay Centered

If you are an empath and sense other people's emotions, it is important to stay in your own center and to trust, first and foremost, your emotions/senses. Interactions with other people are not only played out in words. Body language and intuition play a big role too, usually even a bigger one than the verbal aspect, which is only the front.

When you stay in your center you will gain a clearer understanding of the full picture.

To Grow Or Not To Grow...

What if we are not here on earth to grow our soul? What if we are perfect as we are and here to let our perfect light shine? How would that change your everyday reality?

According to Neale Donald Walsh (author of "Conversations with God") this is exactly what we are here to do. It sure takes off a lot of pressure and lets you have a heart centered approach to life. What do you think?

Tools

Every person's path is different from another. Though there may be similarities, each is unique. There is no 'one size fits all'. Instead of following in other people's footsteps, it makes more sense to accumulate tools that help you on your path (which can definitely include other people's experiences and wisdom) and use those tools as needed for you. With your tools you can customize your personal path and make it work for you.

Your Path

All of us know what path our souls want to take. If you believe you don't know, odds are that you are choosing not to see it because it causes you fear. Seeing your path entails looking fear straight in the eye, which means looking at everything you don't like about yourself within yourself. There is no way around it.

When you choose to look, you will see what needs to be done. It may take time to gather the courage to do what you know you need to do, but looking/acknowledging is the first step.

Perfection Quote

"Have no fear of perfection - you will never reach it." by Salvador Dali

This quote makes me smile. Whenever you are under a lot of pressure, whether self induced or not, remember this quote. All you can do is the best you can and that is all you need to focus on. :)

Finality

Is anything ever truly final? As humans we like to label things, set ultimatums and absolutes, but how real are they? If you believe in life after death, even death isn't final. Based on quantum physics, what we perceive as being solid isn't solid. Everything is energy. It continually changes form over time.

So instead of something being final, isn't change the more constant of the two?

Eliminate Fear

"Fear comes from uncertainty; we can eliminate the fear within us when we know ourselves better." by Bruce Lee

Here is yet another reason why it is important to know yourself and why you are choosing the path of self-discovery. Eliminating fear within will lead to inner balance and peace. :)

Awake

"To be awake is everything." by Gustave Meyrink

When you succumb to routine, it is like you are going through life asleep. Awake and live, right here right now. :)

Motherhood

This is for all you moms!!!

"Motherhood is a great honor and privilege, yet it is also synonymous with servanthood. Every day women are called upon to selflessly meet the needs of their families. Whether they are awake at night nursing a baby, spending their time and money on less-than-grateful teenagers, or preparing meals, moms continuously put others before themselves." by Charles Stanley

I think every mom can relate to this in one way or another. As you give to all members of the family make sure you give to yourself too. You are equally important!

Happiness Defined

"Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude." by Denis Waitley

I love this definition of happiness and thus wanted to share it with you.  Enjoy!

Set Intentions

Setting your intentions for the day can turn your whole day around for the better. Make sure to let the outcome be what it may. What is important is for you to enjoy the process.  :)

Expectations

"Expectation is the root of all heartache." by William Shakespeare

When your expectations aren't met you invariably are disappointed, sad, angry, upset, etc.  Does that mean that you shouldn't have expectations? Not at all. As long as expectations are mutual, things can be worked out. Expectations that are mute and produced in you by your standards are the ones that can cause heartache. They are unfulfilled personal needs that you want others to fill for you.

Every Moment

"Every moment is a fresh beginning." by T.S. Eliot

Isn't this a refreshing perspective? It opens up possibilities at all times. You can change things if you like. It is up to you to seize the moment.

Kindness

"Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see." by Mark Twain

Kindness indeed is a universal language, one that everyone understand, one that warms your heart when accepted. Today give and accept kindness. Be the teacher and pupil of this universal language. :)

Make A Wish

Take a few minutes and see if you can answer this: If you could ask for one wish from the angels for yourself, what would it be?

Formulate it in one short sentence and keep it to only one wish. Then do send it to the angels. See what happens.  :)

Opinions

"We cling to our own point of view, as though everything depended on it. Yet our opinions have no permanence; like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away." by Chuang Tzu

Wise words! Think of how you have changed over time and how your opinions change as your perspective and experiences change. Next time you get stuck on "being right" think of these words and ask yourself: Is it really worth it?

Magic

"Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that. antyhing can happen." by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

This is so true. You are limitless if only you believe in yourself!

Shoot For The Stars

"If you shoot for the stars and hit the moon, it's OK. But you've got to shoot for something. A lot of people don't even shoot." by Confucious

Have a goal. Though it may change, you are moving into directed action, which is necessary for anything to manifest.

Experience Duality

"Experience life in all possible ways -- good-bad, bitter-sweet, dark-light, summer-winter. Experience all the dualities. Don't be afraid of experience, because the more experience you have, the more mature you become." by Osho

Dualities are facets of each other and complete each other. To truly grow you need to experience both sides. There is no light without dark.

Evoke Change

A great way to evoke change in your life is to start deep cleaning your house. Your home is, in a way, your physical representation. When you start the deep cleaning process you take a closer look and clear "cob webs" that have been around for a while, making room for new energy to come in, for change to happen.

Approach this process with a positive attitude. You will then attract positive energy.  :)

Refresh Your Connection

As I was sitting here blogging, my internet connection kept turning on and off frequently. I need to keep refreshing the connection.  That is exactly how it sometimes is with your connection to yourself...some days you are connected and everything is running smoothly, while other days you need to continually "refresh your connection".

On those days, when things aren't running as smoothly, persevere and patiently reconnect. It will make the bond to yourself stronger.

Unique?

Though your experience of a challenging situation may be unique, the basic lesson isn't. No matter how much you may feel that your situation is unique, it is not. The details of the manifestation might be, but the bottom line of it all is more common than you might think.

You have a choice to be isolated or to reach out to others. If you choose to open up, others will open to you too. Even if they don't right away, you are brave in opening up and are strengthening yourself by not hiding.

You are not alone in this world. We are all here to further ourselves and each other. We are, indeed, all one.

Treat Yourself

Do you have something precious that you are saving for a special occasion, like a beautiful set of dishes, a valuable necklace, etc? How long have you had it? How often have you used it? When will you use it?

Give yourself the okay to take these beautiful items out and enjoy them! There is no time like the now and you deserve it! You are special, so why not treat yourself? Shake things up a bit and give yourself some variety. Make every day count.  :)

Conditioning

Conditioning is key to persevering and succeeding in sports and life. Tactics and skill are not enough.

Speak Up

Speaking up is a good thing. It stops you from keeping everything in and having it fester. Do it from a heart centered space and all will be well.

Just Be

As the temperatures get cooler, make it a point to go outside at least once a day with the purpose of taking some deep breaths and being in the moment. While you are taking your breaths look at the trees, the sun or moon & stars, the sky and anything else that catches your eye. Pay attention to those things that you usually don't have time for and just be. It will make you feel good instantly.
