Open your heart to overcome fear

Fear is so powerful.. that sometimes our logic/minds want and allow it to prevail. When your heartbreaks or yearns for something or someone... your body feels as if it is contracting all the energy around you and focusing it toward your center... your heart. Tears start to flow and all you want to do is speak your truth... but fear takes over your logic to remind you of its presence. Some things take time and patience... we cannot speak our truth straight away... (this I know very well). Although our hearts are breaking and tears begin to fall... we must remember that we will always and forever choose love over fear. We open our hearts ... let the wind carry away our fears... allow love back into our hearts and joy back into our minds. Look up and see the love all around you... the miracle life brings... the joy that we can embrace. Hope begins to build ... and fear is carried away as the sunsets.

Certain situations may and WILL break our hearts... but we must always have hope in love. Remember that we were created in the act of love... we are surrounded with love... we must share the love that we are so fortunate to have in our lives. "Fear is not the matter... I would so much rather open up my heart" - Amel Larrieux **Namaste

Searching

Many search for their truth or just the ultimate truth often from external sources.  We continue this search for months even years... once we feel like we've tapped out our external sources... and we are still unsatisfied with the truth or the lack of progression... we give up. Lost in our thoughts and swimming in a large ocean of uncertainty... we often internalize these feelings of self doubt and confusion.. only to cause more uncertainty about the world... the truth... and worse... the self. 

This is where internal searching plays its greatest role.  We are here for ourselves... we can hear the truth within ourselves.  The truth begins from the individual and will manifest to the ultimate truth.  You just have to allow it... and allow yourself to discover and createYOUR truth.  Remember that everything in life is a process.  Just like a seed turns into a beautiful flower ...you must care for it, and allow it to grow. You must possess and practice patience to witness the beauty and peace it will bring. 

Of course, external searching is also a good method in finding the truth... but I strongly feel that we must use it as a guide to create our own truth.

The Flow

I know that we've been told all our lives to hold certain emotions... to remain silent because we shouldn't be saying something that goes against what we've been taught. Letting the flow of energy is key to finding our peace. Once we find our inner peace... we can and will find peace overall. We open our hearts to certain things and certain people... and we open our minds to certain thoughts and opinions... yet it is so difficult for us to accept change. I used to ask the universe "Why can't he/she/they change?" or "How could someone think like this/that?". ... but without opposing thoughts and opinions... how can we formulate and create our own? Currently... I find myself thanking the universe for sending me these differing thoughts and opinions because now is my chance to choose carefully. To make a choice ... do I honor my present feelings, thoughts and opinions... or do I change my perception? Like the word KARMA... the word CHANGE holds a negative connotation in most minds. But they are neither bad nor good. They are natural processes... they are natural laws. Therefore, to change one's perception may bring growth and may open the mind, and the Self, to positive energies and vibrations. Change is a beautiful thing... but we were taught: "always remain the same". If we substitute "the same" with "true" ... we hear ... "always remain true". True to who? True to yourSELF. Allowing change for yourself permits the self to grow and experience.

Allow the energy to flow naturally by staying true to your thoughts and emotions. If this flow is disrupted or blocked... we begin to internalize and contract this energy.... until it explodes into anxiety and/or depression. Give your peace to keep your peace.


Words flowing from my heart space. I feel a subtle pressure over my brow/forehead right now. What does this mean? Whatever it is...it feels very loving and joyful. :)

I had to share this video/song!!!

She has an amazing voice. It creates a floating feeling in my heart and puts a smile on my face. Even on this rainy and thunderstorm filled night... it makes me feel so much love... that I just EXPLODE and give it right back! :) "I can live on your smile" paints a picture of a sunny day, blue sky with a few clouds passing by and trees.

I could not have said it any better! It's as if she just took my thoughts about ... EVERYTHING beautiful in life and sang it right back to me.

LOVE LOVE LOVE :)

Spiritual Transition

When I chose this path... I knew that there will be times that will be difficult. At first speaking my truth seemed to be a little difficult... but I noticed that the only fear I really had was fear in what people may say or think. Honestly... if my sponsoring thought is true and genuine... my fear begin to decrease and my truth begin to come out naturally. It's very hard to be who you are .. at first... but once you begin the journey... there really is no turning back. YOu just begin to love and appreciate yourself and your opinions more.

I believe that where I am in my path... the next step is going to be very difficult; letting go of the material world... bit by bit. I'm not saying that I'm going to get rid of my laptop, my tv, my bed or my car... but I'm talking about the connection that we build with certain objects. Things that do not have any sentimental value but we seem to add some kind of emotional connection to them. Or just the "need" to have something but in reality... it is not a necessity. I guess letting go of the material world is really embracing freedom. Because without all the emotional ties we have with these objects... we have room to think, love and grow. Just something to think about ...


I know that all my work has been noticed because I hear certain things and I see the way people react. With this said... people's opinions still matter to me very much. Especially when they are positive and our relationship is close and/or worth having. I say it over and over again... but to those in my life... this includes those reading this post... thank you for everything. Thank you for acknowledging the changes that I've made and thank you for your support. I need it. We all need it. So much love :)

All in all... I will continue my journey and I'm excited to meet the people I'm supposed to along the way. I'm so excited for my transition. :))

Self Love

(I guess I'll just let this one flow as it comes to me... since I have no idea how to really start it LOL!)

I haven't been single for that long but I have not felt loneliness... and to be honest... I really don't think I will. You may be asking... (like most of my friends and family) "How are you doing this?" Well... from the love and support of my family and friends... and from the love and support of myself. Yes... it is difficult at first to detach yourself from someone or something... but honestly.. if it's to improve yourself emotionally, mentally and spiritually... LIVE IT UP!!! It definitely took me a long time to get to this mentality and to have my emotions in check.. so I understand where this question is coming from and I have also had my share of heartache, heartbreak and tears in the past. It's definitely ok to cry... but you must always remember that you are crying to let these emotions go... not to dwell. It definitely helps to make every effort to avoid asking questions that may cause you to dwell or question YOUR BEING. (When I say to question YOUR BEING... I mean it as in asking what you may have done wrong or what you should have done.) Again... making an effort to remember that this is an experience... and remember that you must learn the lesson at hand.. and move on with your journey. I know that what I'm about to say is cheesy or cliche ... but... LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO BE SAD!!!

And most importantly... remember that you are surrounded with love... and that you YOURSELF IS LOVE! You have it.. you share it... give yourself some love, please!!! We are all magnificent beings... can we please believe this now?? LOL!! :)

I also hear comments like.. "You'll feel the loneliness later when everything settles."

YIKES! LOL!! Well... like I said *above* love yourself... you ARE LOVE... you are surrounded by love. I understand that sometimes you may want to hold someone close or have conversations with someone... but it's really about knowing how to channel these emotions to positive and productive actions... CREATE!! Dance... sing... compose... write... paint...sculpt... draw... CREATE! This will definitely help in gaining appreciation and love for yourself and the beauty that life has to offer. And these are great ways to keep the mind from going into that cave of sorrow.. and these activities give your heart time to heal.

**(Excuse me if I get too deep or enthusiastic LOL!! LOVE LOVE LOVE)

Sleep and dreams

I've been having very vivid dreams and day dreams.  I think it actually started a few months ago.  I noticed that some of these dreams are influenced with someone else's thoughts.  No wonder I've been waking up confused!  I started feeling a little lost..and I couldn't understand why... when I thought about it last night... it dawned on me... "these are not my feelings and thoughts." Rather..they are someone else's ..someone who I've been connecting with more.  Wow... connections are strong.  This really means that I must strengthen my aura.  I'm so glad that I figured it out before I started freaking out and going crazy.  Phew!!!

But other than that...has anyone else out there been having trouble sleeping?? Or having vivid dreams or day dreams??  Or both??  I've been asking some friends...and so far.. they all have been having trouble sleeping through the night.  What is this?? I can't help but to be excited!!!  There's definitely something bigger happening.  Hmm.. time for some homework!

I usually use my dreams and day dreams as a guide. Kind of like that voice that gives you a warning or heads up on what's to come. Of course... I also believe that dreams are just the subconscious mind expressing thoughts. But I truly believe that sometimes.. when you build that connection with another being... your thoughts become theirs... and vice versa. I'm sure I'll go more in depth with it on a later blog.
