Success

My imperfections and failures are as much a blessing from God as my successes and talents.  ~ Mahatma Gandhi

Signs of spring

 Good morning! I will admit that not only is it Springtime ( can already turn my garden and compost in my yard) , but it is also the official time for me ....to shave my legs LOL. I think I made it through the full winter, or at least the last couple months without a razor or a shave. I don't even have a razor!..I honestly can't remember, but I do know that taking off my skinny jeans yesterday pulled a few in a gasp-inspiring-tear-jerking way, so it's time

๐Ÿ˜ƒ It's not that I intend on baring my legs any time soon, but from that sobering moment yesterday, I will take heed. LOL I might as well do a pedicure while I am at it and get it all done in one swoop. HAHA!

Spring blooms

 I think I filled the house with these...and my neighbours places too.

Share from where you are at and see that point with great value

 Good morning! I have been blessed, that no matter where I go in the world, I am graced with the opportunity to witness, experience, and even collaborate with the creative process and journey of some passionate innovators in this "earth" space. I am always amazed at the longing to bringing expression, joy, love, and freedom to others from the hearts of these great people.

๐Ÿ™‚
The best part is, that they want to share from where they are at and see that point with great value. They may not value ALL of who they are and share in the "struggles" of human experience with the best of us, but it's HUGELY inspiring when people recognize the vastness of their gifts....to a point where they have no desire to keep it to themselves, and are COMPELLED that the plentiful overflow MUST be share in the lives of others. MAGIC!! ❤
My life is beautiful...wide open with awesome, beauty, and wonder. HA! It's a great movie and I am grateful for the "role" I get to play.

Springtime paper sorting with the kids

 Good morning! I gave the boys a task to complete before they were to get some xbox time...go through their old paper boxes (collection of drawings, schoolwork, etc. over the years...). It is a lot of paper to go through and this is just one box I offered. .and no, I do not through out any of their stuff along the way. We made an agreement years ago that they would do their own....and they enjoy seeing how they have grown and changed in interests....They are still hard at it an hour later...laughing at their stuff along the way. I think this Spring cleaning might be a breeze this year

There is more to a rose than just its smell

 Beautiful! This is only for those in life who are willing to smell roses and choose to remember them....not only by smell alone. But to stand back and look at what wonderful living thing produced such sweet and inspiring "fruit" to the senses...its soft petals, radiant colours, tall stems, cautionary thorns (handle with care), its useful fruit, and even its name....there is more to a rose than just its smell. It carries blossom and beauty and a call for you and me to consider ourselves the same...with respect, observation, joy, wonder, and appreciation....mmmmm, love smells so sweet #Lovefirst #INjoy #greaterstill #delight #ofthelight

Make the most of today. Get some joy out of it

 Good morning! So many thoughts this morning. ..Near death experiences, holding onto the "proof" of your fears in life, not being flexible and adaptable (was fun playing tagteam while cooking with my son last night), running the same hampster wheel circle/cycle of overwhelm over, and over, and.... (put a bloody stick in it and get OFF it already so you can catch your breath and some clarity

❤ )....
But the one thing that stood out today was...how can I make the most of today instead of allowing it not to bring the fullest joy possible? Today I just want to focus on joy ❤ Haha and a long awaited massage is great gift I will be more than glad to receive ❤ After that, the joy of giving encouragement to others.
Off to plan it out. Enjoy a beautiful day ๐Ÿ˜€

shift your filters

 Oh yes you can! And we all can...shift your filters and let's get down to work

You are already growing and changing. Is it in the way that you want?

 Good morning!

I had amazing conversation with myself this weekend (and others). I even got tongue-tied when asked to comment on a topic I feel SO PASSIONATE ABOUT LMBO! (I really didn't want to go off on a rant about it, and I will share at the next meeting...for sure!)

But today, my thoughts are around growth and change. I'm going to put this out there...most change is not hard. And growing, it doesn't hurt as much as we think. LOL and complaining. ..it feels the same (in intensity and effort) to me as it does to grow, but without the afterglow. Complaining is a change,...resistance to change is a growth. In fact, every choice we engage in is taking us through growth or change.

It's building the consistency and focus in the direction you WANT to be growing and changing in that takes a bit of training...a bit of reining in.

And one of the best ways to do that is set a JOY "in front" of you. In your near future, your next choice...into your distant future. ..into your grand life vision. ❤ Set it there!

Wake up happy to know your choices in each moment are bringing you to and through that joy. Delight in the miracle and power of making that next choice that will blossom gifts in your future and in your day.

En-joy a great day ❤

Our experience of living life

 Good morning! I've been experiencing a lot of dialogue lately in my head as though I am a computer receiving "downloads"

๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Primarily in the realm of how truly unique our humanity and "living" experience really is. It has really softened the hard edges of my viewpoint even more and allowed for greater compassion to be experienced. ❤ In experiencing myself with greater compassion and awe, I can look slowly and gently on the wonders (and struggles) of others and appreciate what viewpoint they bring to us all.
Ha! And I was gonna share about my amazing "save" of not throwing garbage into a can without a bag ๐Ÿ˜‰ . Enjoy a wonderful and reflective day ❤

When an old wineskin can't keep up. Be ready for your upgrade

 Good morning! Thank you Windows automatic updates....my 2010 laptop has now expressed itself with a black screen after your latest updates (and yes, it was up and running before the update kicked in...

๐Ÿ™‚ ). Well, I will hook it up and finish backing it up of its current content, and I do have other forms of access, but man, if the parable of only new wineskins for new wine ever fit, this is it. I was super happy with how it ran with its "older" versions...it was old, the programs were old...it fit and worked together. But with all change and evolution, sometimes there has to be a drastic overhaul of the old or simply start new.
LOL at least I know that I am an ever-evolving, growing, and changing being that can flex with expanded and upgraded "software" ๐Ÿ˜‰
Now time to go out and enjoy the sunshine.
