B a l a n c e

I was looking through the pictures that I took that morning and this one jumped out at me, I just love these flowers and their vibrant colors of purple and yellow, and as I was looking at it thinking I’m going to use it in my next blog post, the word balance came to me and I immediately knew that it’s the perfect word and it has to be here.

When I was finished with the photo, I was trying to write how balance has come just when I needed it, but no matter how I said it, it just wasn’t right.  For two days now I’ve tried to write what balance means to me, how sometimes I’m out of balance, why we need to create balance…but I haven’t been able to.  The words just get stuck and I can’t get them out, it’s like there’s a wall stopping them from getting through.

It finally hit me that there isn’t anything for me to say, that what it means to me, my interpretation of it, is not the glory of this word.  That the word wants to be on it’s own allowing it’s message to unfold naturally for everyone and not as interpreted by me.

So, here it is – b a l a n c e – welcome it, carry it around with you, bring it to your mind throughout the day, think on it, let it unfold for you, and allow it to reveal it’s wisdom to you.

And if you’d like to share here in the comments bellow, I’d love to know how balance revealed itself to you, what message does it hold for you.

It’s Spring…YEEEAAAHHH!!

Spring is showing herself, I can feel her in the air, time to let go of the heaviness you’ve been carrying around with you and bring in the fresh.

Bring yourself out of hibernation and step into spring with lightness, leave all the heaviness behind you and open the door to expectations for new growth.

Welcome change, revisit your dreams, keep the ones you still want, let go of the ones you’re not ready for or the ones that are not for you anymore.

quote

Your life is a magical journey; find the joy and magic in the small and ordinary.

Get curious, plant new seeds, and let the magic sprout.

Maybe start a new ritual practice. Doesn’t have to be anything big and heavy. You can repeat an affirmation a few times,

I AM A PART OF AND ONE WITH THE ALL

I AM OPEN TO RECEIVE ALL THE GOOD

I AM PROSPEROUS

I AM OPEN TO RECEIVE MIRACLES TODAY

Just stopping for one minute every day and placing your focus and attention on your self, will create a change in your self that will transform you.

You’re welcome to use my affirmations above or create your own.  Do what feels good for you and if you can come and share with us here in the comment section bellow, love to chat.

Happy Spring Blessings

Celebrating My Writing

I’m so happy, look at what came in the mail, my ‘Writual Blessings’ illustrated cards by Cynthia Morris. Love Love Love them.

After I cleared any negative energy from the cards I asked the question, what can you give me, and the card that flew out of the deck as I was shuffling is “celebrate your writing” oh wow, the most perfect card.

I don’t think I’ve ever celebrated my writing. I have thanked my writing. I say affirmations for writing, but never honored it by actually celebrating all that writing has blessed me with.

writual blessings

Writing has helped me to open up within, to declare who I am, to get over fears that were blocking me and uncover fears I didn’t know I had. Through writing I have gained strength and courage.

I have found my true voice and stepped into and opened to a universe that was waiting within me, a treasure chest full of creative gifts.

Writing has helped me to sort out ideas. Spill my guts out on the page. Get clear about things. And while writing I’ve received answers to questions, guidance, and inspiration.

Writing has been and is my divine gift.  Through writing I’ve been able to light the way for others, open doors and inspire, uplift, encourage others, and make a small difference in other peoples lives.

So this is my first celebration honoring my writing, my creativity, my inspiration, and my Source.

My own writing blessing –

I am grateful for my highest inner voice

I am grateful for my highest creativity

I am grateful for my highest inspiration

I am grateful for my highest writing

That is for my highest good and that of all, and so it is.

Amen!

Writing is my joy, my sanctuary, my love.  Writing every day has made me a better writer.  And so I continue to CELEBRATE and say YES to my writing.

Come and share your own celebration you have about your writing, in the comment section below.  Love to hear from you.

Why You Need to Go With the Flow

Sometimes I just forget that I’m not superwoman and that I can’t do everything and that I need to listen to my body and give myself a rest and a break. I get into this place where I’m walking around with this idea that I have to be creative every single minute of every single day, and if I’m not, I’m wasting my precious life. And I get stressed (ohhhh noooo) when new ideas aren’t flooding my mind all the time and I’m not creating all the time.

Sometimes life happens like this past week where every day I had something that came up. Monday morning the water hose to my fridge broke and luckily I was home when the water started gushing out all over. (There was lots of towels to wash)  The next day I had to go to the ear doctor and the next to the dentist (also not planned) and in between I also went to work. I also had scheduled for my windows to be cleaned on another day and so I had workers here and cleaning up to do, and before I knew it the week was gone and I felt like I didn’t do anything, anything creative that is. I am at my most creative in the morning, I love doing my ritual, having breakfast, writing in my journal… that’s how I start my mornings, but when stuff happens nothing creative gets done.

And so I have to remind myself every so often that, I don’t have to be creative every minute of every day.  Sometimes I don’t get anything done even when there is no stuff happening to interrupt my day, and that’s ok too.  And that creativity can show up at the most unexpected moment, when I least expect it, like the idea to write this blog post. And sometimes I need to follow the rhythm of my own self, and not hold myself up to some out of reach schedule and ideals that are impossible to meet, I’m not superwoman. And sometimes life just happens and I need to go with the flow of it all.

But in between all that I did manage to take some photos this past week while out shopping.  (Big smile)

And so life continues to show up sometimes expected and at others totally unexpected and I’m reminding myself to just go with the flow…

How are you showing up to your life, come and share in the comment section below, love to hear from you.
