Cherish and express your love

Cherish every moment and every word with the ones that you love and adore.  Speak your words with your loving truth and say what you need and want to say.  We often take for granted the times and opportunities that are presented to us... and we constantly put off what we want to say and/or do until the next moment ... or day... or week... or month.  The next moments... days... weeks.. months... are not guaranteed.  Decisions made by you and/or others may and will create a new path.  This path may alter your thoughts... feelings & emotions... even your destination (both physically and metaphorically). Enjoy the times you have with your loved ones.  Create more adventures to add to your journey and cherish these moments.

Recognize and realize what is real... recognize and realize what and who is love.  Be grateful and appreciate these moments we have with those whom we love and adore.  From every breath to every smile... cherish them.  GIVE THANKS.  ALWAYS remember that they are your treasures and gifts.  Express your love and gratitude for having them in your life.  Letting someone know that they are loved and adored ... will change their world... and warm their hearts.   *HUG*

Meditation, Evolution & Transformation

Looking back ... not even THAT far back... I see how and who I used to be.  So angry, worried and weary... I was constantly looking for some kind of outlet.  My form of creation is dancing and singing. These activities made (and still make) me feel so free and happy ... and I'm always in alignment... filled with so much joy.  Although alignment was always guaranteed with these activities (for me)... there came a point where I realized that it was a "temporary fix".  Due to working and attending classes... I cannot be in a dance studio as much as I would prefer.  Stress and pressure coming from so many angles; work, school, romantic relationship, family and friends... it felt like I was drifting further and further away from wanting to be connected with everyone... even the ones whom I love and cherish.

I knew something had to give... I knew that it was time for me to truly listen to myself.. my heart and my soul.  It was time to find peace and alignment.  I started meditating.  My original plan was to just sit in COMPLETE silence to turn off my mind... but I soon discovered that this was an extremely difficult task without music.  I searched youtube for some meditation music and stumbled upon a video which guides you through the chakras (link to the video).  Having read a little bit on chakras.. I gave it a try... WOW!  So thankful that I "stumbled" upon that video!  I started meditating in the morning and at night before bed.  After a few months, I no longer needed the video as a guide... I could meditate on my own (with music of course.. just because I love it so much!).

I'm so thankful to have made these changes and additions in my life.  So thankful for the guides and tools that has been given to me.  I used to be afraid of change... but now I understand the importance of change for our evolution.  We evolve mentally, spiritually and emotionally.  And in order to evolve we must take the steps and make the efforts TO change... and of course... embrace change.  Give yourself, as well as others, the chance to change and evolve.

I encourage everyone to make and take the time to meditate.  It's an amazing way to find our peace, our center, our alignment and of course... OURSELVES.

The meaning of following your heart

"Follow your heart" is something I've heard all my life.  Of course, I believe it's true but honestly.. I never really fully understood what that meant until recently.  To "follow your heart" is to allow your heart to seek and manifest/create what it wants.  To let the heart shine and share it's loving light with others.  It's natural to protect our hearts from harm... and truthfully... if this is truly what the heart wants... it will be a challenging task/path... but in the end ... your heart and YOU will be OK.  Happiness, joyfulness and love will always find you and be with you.
Denying your heart from what it really wants will open the door for fear to enter and it will ultimately lead to a longer healing process (should it not turn out the way you had hoped).  I understand that allowing yourself to love and give love can be a little frightening because no one wants to have their hearts broken or run the risk of having it broken.  But how would we ever know if we've never given the unknown a chance for a positive outcome?  Do we prefer to have the thoughts of "what if's" and regrets?  When will we allow ourselves to love and to choose love over fear?  When will we allow our love to shine?

Allow your heart to shine... allow your love to flow... allow the warmth of your heart to fill someone else's.  Your love is as radiant as the sun... but you must allow your heart to shine bright!


*Love always

The unknown

The unknown as in everything that is outside of our comfort-zone... everything that we have yet to discover... everything that we have yet to experience... everything that we have yet to create.   We were brought up in fear of the unknown... but why fear something that we have yet to understand?  It could be something wonderful and exciting!  It could be something meaningful and life changing!!  We do not always have to ask such critical questions about the unknown... only because it really comes down to our own experiences and our own opinions of everything.  Every moment of our lives we are creating and experiencing our unknowns.  I know this may seem unclear because I am speaking about something that is not concrete or something that is not defined... but that's the beauty part of it all!!  Right now.. this very moment... YOU maybe experiencing something that you have no control over... no expectations... just hope...  you've put out into the universe your gratitude for what you have and you've asked for what you've desired.. now ... we wait... we wait for the unknown result/outcome.. the unknown answer.

It's very easy to let fear into your mind when you have no clear idea of what may become of certain situations... but it's important to keep our minds positive and our hearts open.  Doing this helps us accept and appreciate what is to become of our current unknown.  It allows us to keep our minds and our hearts free... it allows us to grow.

Take some time

Take the time to stop and appreciate life and the beauty it brings.  Often we get caught up in our daily grind that we forget to acknowledge and appreciate the little things.  The beautiful fall sunsets... the turning colors of the leaves... the family of geese waddling towards the pond or lake.  Beauty and love are all around us... we just have to open our eyes... and look up. Smile back at the sun and allow yourself to bask in its warmth.
I know and understand that life can get hectic with deadlines...exams...events/functions... and everything else in between.  But there comes a time where our deadlines and obligations become so heavy that we feel as if we cannot breathe. That's when we must stop or slow down.. and enjoy life for what it is and what it brings.
When can we just slow our pace or lay down on the green grass...look up in the sky and let life's beauties amaze us??  Feel the breeze on our faces...and watch the leaves dance on the trees.  Enjoy life my brothers and sisters... you deserve to enjoy and love.
**Namaste*
