I'm Back!

I’m back…

After 5 years of absence and some interesting life experiences, I have decided that it is time to put all my inspired thoughts on paper again.

In the last 5 years, I have learned:

·       True Love exists.

·       The Law of Attraction works.

·       Never say never.

·       Cancer is not a death sentence.

·       Forgiveness is HUGE in moving forward.

·       Living in a state of constant positive vibrations is not only possible, but necessary in living a fulfilled life.

·       How to make my ultimate dream a reality.

My journey to self love started in 2010 and I am still learning every day.  I used to self sacrifice for relationships and got burned every time, and I am not just talking about romantic relationships, but also friendships and family.

I used to be so worried that I will lose people, that I have in the process of “keeping” them in my life, sacrificed myself.

In 2012, I did however start to say positive affirmations every night before going to bed about attracting my true love.

I made lists of what this relationship would look like, and I said over and over again that this person would add to my life as much as I will add to his.

I also determined that being alone was much better than being in a bad relationship.

It did not take very long before it happened, and 6 years later, happily married and feeling as if I have won the man-lottery, I am a huge advocate of putting it out there and being specific about what you want.  I am a living example.

In comparison with the train wrecks I have been on, as far as relationships goes, I could not be happier.  When my husband and I have our daily long conversations and I realize that he truly and honestly sees ME, gets ME and still loves me, I know that it was all worth it.

In the same breath, I am a living example of how the Law of Attraction works.  My romantic life was but a small speck of a much bigger picture, which I intend to share with you over a period of time.

Next time, I will tell you about my fall from grace with “never say never” and cancer is not a death sentence.

Thank you for reading.

From Dream to Reality



Imagine you go through a gate and what you do not know is that there is an invisible wired fence you just walked through.

In reality that fence sifted out anything negative in your life, negative emotions, negative memories, negative thoughts, even negative people or circumstances.

When you get to the other side, all you have left is positive!

Pure positivity!

Imagine how your life would be!

It is like a dream come true!

Do you know that it is possible just by the choices we make every day to have a life like that?

Yes bad things happen, but it is in how you choose to deal with it that peace lies.

Are we sometimes allowing ourselves to be defined by the negatives in our lives instead of the positives?

What if you focus on the positive, on what is right?

With the attitude of gratitude say thank you for your gifts, talents and abilities and expand and develop them.

Suddenly you will enjoy success and those negatives become a distant memory that you once learned a lesson from and not a drama that you live.

Anchored

From floating to anchored.

From lack to abundance.

From limitation to freedom.

Because the WANT was so strong!

It outweighed every other emotion.

Back against the wall for the very last time!

Desire is a strong driving force.

If it is desire to be the best that you can be,

To succeed, it is stronger than any other.

If negative emotions like lack of deserve-ability, self-pity,

Doubt in yourself, a lack of trust and misplaced love

Is stronger than the desire to succeed,

You quit, give up and beat yourself up for failing.

Then desire is but a foggy dream,

It bears no energy and no fruit.

If desire is so strong that it makes a difference,

It has a faithful companion:

Action!

How many talk the right language,

But never put it into action?

When you take the steps,

Make the decisions,

Follow through…

 Miracles happen!

It does not fall in your lap,

You choose it.

It is so simple, yet so profound…

So very few ever GETS it!

My Journey

If in my life-journey I am a car.

I imagine myself being fueled by positivity.

Whenever I allow the negatives in, I go on a detour, stall or go completely off track.

But when I only allow positives in, I go forward toward my destination at the pace that I should.

Therefore, when I experience just like everybody else, how life happens, how people around me choose to live their lives, or when all those things we do not have control over happen, I do not allow it to negatively influence where I am going and at what pace I am moving.

I do not allow all those outside elements to pollute the fuel in my life.

Now people comment on how good things are working out for me, and I know just why.

For the first time in my life I sit back and say: “Wow, I must have done something right.” 

Not too long ago my question was: “What have I done wrong?”

It works, try it!

Pure Positive Energy

A “wow” moment, an awareness,

An antidote...

For tiredness, for complacency,

A passion, a liveliness,

A well kept secret…

If we all choose to be positive,

Imagine the difference.

In traffic, or at work, and home,

In relationships…

What if we reach all our goals?

Or have the energy to be the best we can be?

What if a problem suddenly becomes a solution?

Or that mountain in front of you seems like an anthill?

What if we stop just for one day to complain?

Or feel sorry for ourselves?

What if we see the choices God gives us every day?

Instead of day after day choose the second best...

Because we do not feel good enough,

We now choose from a place of power,

Because just this once, we allow ourselves to know:

I am good enough,

I am worthy,

I am loved!

Alone

So many times in my life I’ve heard people say that you first have to learn to be alone to be complete. 

I always said to myself:  Yea, yea, I know that and I can easily be alone.

However, in the last year I have been tested in that, and I am so thankful to be able to say today that I absolutely LOVE to be by myself.

I have learned to accept who I am and who God intended me to be.

I do not have to create the illusion that I am ok anymore, because I can truthfully say and live that I am ok, I am more than ok!

I have learned to love myself in a way I always expected to be loved by others.

I have learned that the true meaning of a soul mate is to have a true love an understanding of myself first.

I have learned in order to be loved by and give love to others, I had to learn to love myself first.

We learn from and early age to “love our neighbors as we love ourselves.” 

But what if we do not really love ourselves?

We are conditioned to look for love at all the wrong places, and the result is heartache and pain.

A year ago my life was plagued with “why’s” and self pity.  I was a victim and felt so sorry for myself.

Today I have victory.  I am living a life of excellence and love to be me. 

I do not envy other people anymore or wish that I could be like them.

Instead, I thank God every day for making me “fearfully and wonderfully”.

Whenever I have a problem, I look inside myself first.

I enjoy me, I enjoy life, I enjoy living.

I am Whole!

Building...

The Foundation is solid, 

Unmovable, perfect, everlasting…

Brick by brick I attempted to build my life on it.

Through many struggles and pain, I did it in vain,

Allowed people to side-track me, to steal my gain…

When I looked at my labor, 

Everything was out of alignment. 

No clean structure – a mess.

I had to go back and start over and over again. 

Trying to pin point the weak spots, 

The wrong, deception, and so much more.

I tried to remove only those and build again, 

But the results were always the same.

I kept on looking at other people to rescue me, to build it for me.

Time and time again I was hurt.

It was never their job! 

It is mine!

Then one glorious day, I wiped it all off.

No fear was big enough to hold me back anymore...

It was clean, naked, just me and the Foundation.

We became One, United.

With everything else gone, no more distractions, 

We started conversations.

This new, beautiful relationship was formed.

I realized that freedom from distractions 

Provided the opportunity to focus on what is real, 

What is crucial, what is future…

I learned to love me and see myself the way the Foundation saw me.

Now I do not build anymore…

WE do!

Together, harmoniously in unity.

No more outsiders are allowed to influence my journey, my progress. 

They are welcome to visit, but not to be part of the structure.

Brick by brick WE build.

I look and I see perfection, strength, destiny, 

JOY!
