In the Moment. Allow, let go.


You are sitting comfortably and it is a perfect day. You are outside and the weather could not be better. As you look out it is clear and bright. There is a mountain in the distance boasting beautiful majestic peaks. Turquoise blue skies above. As your eyes travel down the mountain there is a sea of greens, both dark and light, with wonderful wildflowers painted throughout. Every color nature can offer. The gentle breeze that blows across your skin is moving the grass, the growth,  swaying and lifting the flowers all around as they return to face the sun. The colors are so vibrant, like they are singing a song inside of you, rejoicing just because. In the distance birds sing their song, and as you turn to look at the beautiful birds flying high towards the heavens, you see a small creek with glistening water. The landscape goes up and down and you only see parts of the creek, Leaving to your curious imagination how wide, how deep, how swift, and how far, the creek travels. Where does it start, where does it go? 

The gentle breeze continues to dance across your skin and the landscape, reminding everything of connection. This moment, so peaceful. Your heart loves with it all. 

The sun, so warm and gentle, feeling inside and out and throughout, the glow of the beautiful day. It is in the air. Tickling the small hairs your soft skin, your face smiling aglow. 

You are at a train station. Outside, in the countryside. Maybe you were there to travel, maybe you were there to observe. Time seems to have slowed. The day is enough. This moment, enough. Trains come and they go. Sometimes you hear them as they approach, and others, they just appear. All different, yet, moving along down the line, while you remain peacefully, just being, gentle, calm, and sweet, like the day.

Self love and acceptance

Everyone does the best they can in the moment.

.. it is helpful to consider mental and emotional health.

We don’t know what we don’t know. We cannot feel what we cannot feel.

When you accept yourself, you can accept others.

Can you accept and forgive yourself that you did your best at the time?

Let it go. You did your best with what you had available.

Let it go.

If they deserve forgiveness, you do too!

Journaling…

Each day brings new chances, new life.

Depending on your perspective, you may be near, far, somewhere in between what feels good.

How does change start? Where can it lead?

It can happen in an instant, and effort is required. There may be some significant discomfort, and that’s okay. 

Sometimes doing it in the dark can feel scary. Confusing. You want to rely on all the senses that you brought to that point, and I don’t blame you if you try.

I presently am experiencing a year full of change. It arrived when I least expected it. Grateful for it.

It occurred suddenly and with some fright. There was confusion over why, and still remains unclear in many ways. 

Regardless, it’s happening. Would I like to know where it goes? Yes. Is there a manual or map for this new territory? Nope. Will I ever give up? Not a chance. 

I am a bit of a stranger in the same land, and it looks so different. Diving in.. 

All of my usual and familiar tools don’t apply here, I’ve got to lead and act from my core, believing all will be okay. 

I am writing this in raw fashion to get it out, in hopes it may touch someone else in this experience. 

Today, in addition to my family, friends, this beautiful world we live in, I am especially appreciative of doing things right the first time. 

Maybe that starts with worth. No wrong answers here. This is just my best present understanding.  Caring enough about yourself to do things with joy, your best effort, magnetized to things that feel right seems the best path. Easiest to be an “A” student, kinda thought. Without your worth, you can find yourself accommodating, compromising, and wandering from your heart. Next thing you know it is possible you aren’t clear what you like, full of distractions, and not able to offer your best self to others, not growing as much. 

Knowing what you like is big.

I visualize clarity as a nice balance between your heart and your head. The best place to be.

Seems to me, if you always keep pace with your heart, thinking and analyzing is the easy part.

Taking such things for granted on this beautiful world while time passes is not conducive to growth. Life constantly offers opportunities to grow. You can change. 

This isn’t excuse as much as possible cause and effect. It is a loving observation, to lead from your good heart so you can embrace change. 

Change is happening. Would I like to know where it goes? Yes. Is there a manual or map for this new territory? Nope. Will I ever give up? No way! Life is such a gift! This will all be okay as long as I continue to care and try. 

Health is so important.

Change is always happening. 

It’s okay to let go a little, relax, prioritize, reload.

You don’t have to know to try. If you need to heal, heal. If you need a break, take one. But don’t make it a lifestyle. We all need rest. Especially if not feeling our best. Ultimately, I think it’s best to be in motion, growing, living. 

Get or do what you need to get on track, be your best. You are worth it. Think of all the good you will do!

Change can be step by step, or you can be flung through the air head over heels like shot from a tightly coiled medieval catapult. -Either way life’ll change ya’. If you’re fortunate and live long, either way, life’ll fix ya’. I say that humbly, and with a lot of respect for what an incredible gift life offers. 

For me, right now, that is the best way I can possibly explain it. Did I mention change is happening? Check with me tomorrow.

Happy New Year!

Lead from your chest

I have a friend that wrote a nice and memorable song..

I don’t remember the words, if there were additional words..?

But I do remember the chorus.

“Lead on, lead from where you are”

So much insight there. Thanks John.

My feeling from it..

Wherever you are, you are ready to go in a wonderful and real direction if you show yourself honesty over your true feelings, a little compassion, truth and empowerment in that moment of realization.

Take time with yourself. Be gentle with yourself.

For me, I appreciated the words as much as I could. Sounded wise, deep.

I think I understand it more today than ever.

You can have all the thoughts, judgements, opinions, you can imagine. In my opinion, and learning currently in my experience, you are much closer in reality to where your true feelings exist.

Keep your heart with you, step by step, and good will always come.

Love you all!

All you are..

When you remember, you return.

When you return, you remember.

You are always there, you are always here.

There is never a moment when you are not.

The collective is you, holds you as the highest love, sees you for who you are.

Every bit of you is made from love.

It is all in you. Just relax, let it flow through you as it already does.

Peace is here. You are eternal love.

Heart Minded

What if you just support the good stuff?

Now that is intentional focus!

Love is all that really matters.

Be Good. Share good. Be You! ❤️

Kaleidoscope

If you get to feeling isolated, down, different, know we are all one.

A lot of messaging nowadays encourages individuality. It is good to act on your own accord, be different as your heart intends. After all, we all are a unique collection of the universal orchestration, all with our own tuning and life to live. In my opinion, part of this life is acting on your own free will, choosing, being accountable, and learning. Just as wonderful plants and animals meet the needs of their environment, so do we.

But.. What made us? Where do we come from? What set this fantastic life wand world all into motion? Do we see the same sky, same sun, feel the tides as they come and go? Is the We have the same needs. Water, nutrition, love, air to breathe, the pursuit of our individual dreams.

Lead from your heart, try, succeed, cry. It’s all part of it. Life is better that way. It not only feels better, but life is much easier, when you are an A+ effort life student. Keep learning. Keep Growing. Keep LOVING all the unique colors of the rainbow. Celebrate rather than feel threatened by difference.

Everyone their own journey, and you have yours.

We are all one! ❤️
