Mindfulness is the energy that allows us to look deeply at our body, feelings, perceptions, mental fomations and consciousness and see clearly what our real needs are, so we won't drown in the sea of suffering. Eventually love fills our mind and our will, and all our actions from that time on manifest love.
Speech and actions are the fruit of will, so when our will is permeated by love, our speech and actions are also suffused with love.
We speak only loving and constructive words and act only in ways that bring happiness and relieve suffering.

MAKING EVERY MOMENT WORTHWHILE
I miss writing my blog, and so many times it seems as if time slips me by, and there are never enough moments in the day to do everything I want to do, or accomplish what I want, to feel "complete" so to speak.
My writing this blog is as much for me as it is for you, so even if I only give 5 minutes, and it is a quick blurt of consciousness, than I will feel somewhat satiated. I won't lie, I will never be fulfilled by that, but it will at least comfort me in knowing that I am making an effort outside of the norm of what is going on.
I had an amazing 2 days off.
Not much going on at all!!! Just knowing I had two consecutive days off, brought sheer joy to my face and to my ever so hungry soul that is vying for it's own time to come back to itself, to rejoice in it's own glory. You know, the mundane things that people call boring, that I call exquisite!!
Mundane is my middle name. I don't care what people think of me. Hay, I like taking out the damn trash. I like bathing my dogs. I like picking up deer leg bones that my dog prowled around for the night before. I like doing dishes, cleaning and making my house look pretty.
I mean, don't get me wrong. I've missed way to many movies in the past few years due to circumstances out of my control, and movies, you should know, ARE MY THING!!!
There are so many hours in the day, and I would like to think that I have or had made the most out of what my days are.
Most times I think they are boring, but when I revisit what has gone on in my head, I say to myself, "Holy Shit woman, you are so on to something", and then I go about my day in a knowing that I have plans. Plans for myself, plans for the world, and plans for anyone who is aboard this tiny ship of hope!
Life is truly amazing and there is so much to see, so much to experience, outside of ideas. Ideas of the norm. Ideas of how we should go about our trek in the world. Ideas period!!
It is not about following a certain someone. It is not about doing what we think is "right" in the world.
To me, it is about doing what feels whole, and pure, and using that as a tool to make this world a better place, no matter where you are, no matter what you are doing, and certainly, no matter what is going on in your world.
No one is perfect. If you have a vision......share it!!! Just because your credit may suck, or you are just exiting a horrible relationship....... or you have a bad history because of this or that, IT DOES NOT MATTER.
WHAT MATTERS IS YOUR HEART!
WHERE ARE YOU?
WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE?
I do not care what your past is! Really..........why should it matter?
Every moment here is worth while. It really is!!
You are an important being to me.
There is a reason you are here............to me........at least.
Stretch your soul! Do what you think you cannot do, no matter what it is!!! Lose the weight, say you are sorry, run the marathon, stand up for yourself, be the being that you are meant to be!!!
What ever it is.............do it........with integrity.......with intention..................... do it with your whole being who screams to be heard for all of it's genuineness, in wanting to participate in life, and the workings of love.
You may not call it that, but that is what I have deemed it!
Risk everything for love. Risk everything for expression! True expression of the soul.
That is where I will meet you! To engage, or not engage! There is a full life in both of those realities.
I will meet you there!

WHERE ARE YOU NOW?
This seems to be a reoccurring question for me.
Where am I in this stage of my evolution?
What is important to me right at this very moment in time?
What do I need to change up?
How can I maneuver in this world when all things seem to be against me?
How do I bust out of that box and do something a little bit different?
I have done things in the past, and it worked for me then. Now, I have some things that keep me more "on ground" so to speak, but even considering that, I know myself. I will find a crazy, eclectic way to get out, like freakin' Houdini, to prove everyone wrong, that you can never be "caged" and that there IS a way, NO MATTER WHAT, to get out of the things that seem to keep us bound so tightly!
I feel as if I have been on a tour of the world lately. Viewing the world, as it is, in all aspects. I do have to say that I have not gotten current on all of the events that are happening in the world. My time is so limited outside of work, and the last thing I want to do is listen to the news, as depressing as it gets. I still want to be abreast of what is happening globally. Balancing all aspects of what I think is healthy, and conducive seems like a full time job, outside of my job, that takes so much of my time, it perplexes me! It really does.
I look at the amount of time spent at my job, pan back on what it is that I am here for, and how I want to maneuver in this world and I think............ hmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!! What is it really, that I want to change up, or how, on god's earth am I going to make a difference where I am at, with the people.... and too, with the customers that respond to me so well?
Is there a place for me? Is there room for a consciousness there that maybe I am overseeing?
I mean the gems that happen with some of my clientele are just mind blowing. But that is only a percentage.
I can do that anywhere!!
There are people who want to know something different than the status quo.
THAT IS WHERE MY INTEREST/ HEART LIES!
Please, don't tell me about the video you watched, or the hamburger you ate, and how you got so drunk last night that you had no idea how you made it through your day! I will yawn alllllllllllllll day!
Where, dear God, are the people who get away from the norm?????
Who? Please tell me WHO................. is interested in living and viewing life in a different way, outside of what seems to be good, or prosperous, or another notch on their belt, or the ones who think they have made it when they have received yet another award, or plaque, or have climbed the ladder of so called "success".
GOD DAMN..........WHAT DOES SUCCESS MEAN TO YOU? REALLY? PLEASE TELL ME? LET ME UNDERSTAND, OUTSIDE OF MY IDEA.
If it is THAT GREAT, than I will certainly show up and participate in every and all events, and hopefully celebrate in a whole way that will shake me to my core!!!!
What will shake me to my core?
I ask myself that every moment of my days. I kid you not.
If I feel off the mark, I ask myself what it is that I need to do to get me back in the reality of being "on the mark".
I know when I need to get quiet. To hear God's whisper, to tell me what, when, how, and not necessarily why, but maybe a gentle reminder that guides me in a direction that answers the whys for me.
This way is specific. Detailed. Sexy. On the money. And every bit of interesting to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I could care less about the everyday norm.I could care less what you do........ what label clothing you have......how successful your friends are...........how they have made a "mark" in society........ it's good in that they have achieved their own personal goals...........but in essence........ eh..........ya know?
I don't want to be successful in any certain area.
I want to LOVE!
I want to practice compassion.
I want to embrace all moments, hard, sad, grief, glory, you name it........ I want to be what I think is admirable........something worth teaching people to be......outside of ideas............ to actually live a life that is of service.............. in a whole and pure way.
Hay, but that is just me, ya know?
I'm not trying to mold anyone to be a certain way, or live a certain way.
I'm just me!
People seem to gravitate toward me.
I think it has nothing to do with anything but the energy of love that I am in. The love that I feel. The love that is dancing inside of me.
No one knows what to do with it!
Sometimes, actually........... I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT!!!!!!
How funny is that???
This is why I require alone time!
To keep my idea of what I think is important, in perspective.
I don't want anything. I really don't.
My life boils down to a simple formula that encomasses Truth, and love, and service, and a message.
I don't push anything. I just send out my little vibe. If it is cool with you, then great. Hop on! If not, that is so ok too. I am not a recruiter, or anyone that thinks my way is the way. I just have had the most phenomenal experiences and it seems to be a kind of "highway robbery" if I didn't share what it has been like along the way, and how it has transformed my entire life.
I am crazy passionate about my trek here. It is extremely hot! So on the money! So........... well.............to me............
purposeful!
That is all that matters, to me, in the bigger scheme of things.............
to me
at least!
I love you all so, so much. Thank you for always being who you are, and for listening to my messages that are so important to me.
