TAKING INVENTORY AGAIN!!

-
 
 
Well it's that time again!!!  Time to re-evaluate those that surround you.  The quote says so much........look at those around you, your friends, your loved ones, your acquaintances, co-workers.  Are they strong, supportive, loving, giving, caring, etc., etc. in their actions towards you?  Or.... disrespectful, dishonest, cocky, cruel, insensitive, superficial, etc. to you or others?  
If you find that these words are used to describe people you "choose" to surround yourself with, it is time to look inside.  What are you lacking?  Self-confidence?  Love?  We are a reflection of the people we surround ourselves with.  If you "hang out" with drug addicts, pretty good chance you do the same thing.  If you hang out with thieves, you probably steal.  Have you ever noticed that you are extremely happy when you surround yourself with the loving people in your life (even in disagreements--even the best of friends will disagree).  So don't you think if you hang with cocky, cruel superficial people................you act accordingly????  Pretty sure you do.  It's usually when our actions change.  We tend to hurt those that are around us.  Remember.....be careful not to burn your bridges, especially for immediate gratification.  I found many times I wasn't very impressed with qualities that my "friends" possessed, yet continued my friendship, they were users, ego driven, and the relationship was usually very one-sided-THEIRS!!  When I took a good look at myself I realized that these negative qualities were actually starting to crop up in me and because I didn't like the way they treated me, I turned and began to treat those around me (my loved ones) the way I was being treated....without even realizing it, I was becoming what I surrounded myself with.  It was then I was embarrassed, felt guilty, yet it was a light bulb moment and I immediately plucked them from my life.  My healthy relationships began to flourish (thank God those that I treated poorly that didn't deserve it, didn't pluck me!!) and I began to live in happy, loving light due to those that I "hang out" with.  MENTAL NOTE:  if YOU begin to hurt the feelings of others and become self absorbed take a quick look at who you're "hanging" with!!!!

Now is a great time to weed your inner garden..... :)

Manifest It All!!!

-
Manifesting is different than wishing........Wishing is simple and overused, we wish our hair was longer, we were taller, we were sleeping while sitting in boring meeting.  Manifestation is our way to really get what we want and need for our higher good.  For our mission our purpose to help us and allow us to experience things we focus on to bring into our existence for growth and joy if done correctly.  Manifestation can and is a great learning tool and if we look at all we have manifested with intent of joy we can learn to manifest nothing but happiness. Manifestation can also represent the old cliche, be careful what you wish for you just might get it, especially when we yearn for something we had, but let go and then manifest it back into our lives.  Everything we currently have in our existence, we manifested.  The pillows on our couch, the trinkets on our mantels, etc.  Have you ever took the time to look around and really see the things that you manifested at one time yet hav

SOUL PURPOSE

-
I have found lately that all of the turmoil my mind has caused me was in a desperate attempt to find out my purpose and reason to be a participant in this world.  Was I here to save the whales?  Find a cure for cancer?  Was I important enough to have a purpose......I mean I hear it all the time that everyone has a purpose.  I was finding that I was becoming increasingly anxious in finding out what I was here to do, I mean what if it had eluded me for so long that I have wasted my time doing something I shouldn't have been doing?  I don't want to have to start over again, to have to come back and repeat the pain when I could have just done it this time around. So I have been asking and asking and then so defeated when it doesn't come back quickly.  I know that the answer has been there and given to me over and over.  I was just looking for more or a different answer I guess.   I found that purpose doesn't necessarily come from what you do, but purpose is actually what

Self Judgment

-
Judgment comes from our experiences, from the way we view the world, comes from our "beliefs" that we have learned and ultimately hold as our truths.  Wouldn't it be beautiful if we could release the judgment we hold in our heads, especially the judgment we place on ourselves.  I've been traveling down a path that was carefully orchestrated just for me.  I created it and when it became mundane or boring I added more.  Picture a  path in the middle of a beautiful open space.  At the beginning it starts just like the yellow brick road in "The Wizard of Oz" (I relate to the lion.....another blog :) ).  It is beautiful, big, and seems to go on forever.  There are portions of the road when I look further down the road where it seems to vanish (I know now those are the dips in my journey).  I can see a beautiful light, rainbow (I love rainbows.....they are magical) and the beauty from the light helps me continue.  I made sure the light came from above so even w
