Trust Your Intuition and Take the Leap
You honestly know more than you think you do –
You have to believe – to thine own self be true.
March To The Beat Of A Different Drummer
Fitting in was never my bag. Though I longed to – I never did. I always marched to the beat of a different drummer – the drummer which is my soul’s essence.
I didn’t rail against society and its conventional standards. I longed to be seen as ‘normal’. My valiant attempts to ‘change’ and be like ‘them’ never worked.
I stood out.
I stood apart.
I wasn’t unpopular – I just never fit in.
Fitting in didn’t feel like a good fit.
Question Everything
How often have you walked away from a conversation, left a meeting, or a get-together and thought: damn, why didn’t I ask that question?
Then you went on your merry way racking your brain, repeating the question over and over, arriving with a slew of possible answers, not knowing which might be correct?
Add that question to your list of unanswered questions or questions to be asked at a later date.
Love Means Letting Go
Letting go is one of the most difficult challenges we experience in our lifetime, yet the act of letting go is a demonstration of love at a very profound level.
The act of letting go of an addiction … self-love at its finest.
Letting go of an unhealthy relationship … again, self- love and deep love for the person you are releasing.
However, in my experience the greatest act of letting go is mustering up the strength, putting on a brave face and encouraging our loved one to let go, so they may become free from disease, decline, and suffering. We gather round, our hearts aching, and hold the space in which they will transition to their new life, assuring them they are free to discard their bodies and fly high.
Listen To Your Mother
Failsafe advice from the woman who gave you life.
While we are on the subject of listening, I just have to share my thoughts on a subject near and dear to my heart – my mother, Leah.
The Art of Listening
“Say it loud, say it clear ~ You can listen as well as you hear.”
Do you remember those lyrics from the 1988 song; The Living Years*?
You’ve most likely heard that song a hundred times or more – but did you actually listen to it?
What We Ingest We Manifest
It has been written “If you want to know anything about the quality of an individual, all you have to do is open his refrigerator and take a peek inside.”
Is it truly that simple? I think not, as we are complex creatures with a will of our own. And we get to choose how we nourish our body, mind and spirit.
The question is – are you nourishing anger, irritability and fear or are you nourishing sensibility and love?
Beginnings, Endings & In-Betweens
There is life after life and that is why it is referred to as afterlife.
Life after life.
Beginnings.
Ends.
And in-betweens.
Love Thyself
Love of self is probably one of the greatest loves we will ever achieve in one lifetime.
To love thyself… truly, madly, deeply love thyself, one has to place oneself above all else.
Blessed & Grateful
Gratitude is more than a feeling…
It’s a way of life.
It is the ‘forgotten factor’ in happiness research, according to some.
