~*~Happy Every Day~*~

If you have fallen off the wagon of your New Year’s resolutions, get back on! Remember this is the first minute of the rest of your life!

Here are a few tips for helping you maintain your commitment to a better you:

1. Look at where you are now and think about what future you would like to be and have. Doesn’t your future look better with your improvements?

2. Start with the end in mind. Write in bullet points where you want to be in one year from now.

3. Under each bullet point in step 2, write what you're willing to do in order to make it happen.

4. Set deadlines. Break everything up into smaller goals. Take things day by day.

5. Commit to daily habits that will allow you to reach your goals.

6. Set yourself up for success.

7. Remain flexible. Your mind is like a parachute - it only works while open!

8. Reward yourself in positive ways, for your achievements.

Earth is a crazy place to b, good and bad, both. 

Don't lettem see you sweat!  You are powerful and really can make things change!

Memories

This is my first blog.  Hopefully I will get better at making it more exciting as I learn more about blogging...

I'm inspired today because here comes Memorial Day, already?  wow!

There's something about the mass consciousness of holidays that creates such a wonderful bond!  

Memorial Day is such a special holiday for everyone, to b thinking of our precious loved ones who we've "lost" along the way.  We've all lost someone we wish could b here.  Death, in many forms, is a part of life on Earth.  Still it's only a part...Sometimes I want them to be here with us (eventho it's selfish to think this way because the only pain spirit feels is the sorrow of seeing loved ones grieve...it's not selfish because it is love to want to have them with us.) They must b pretty special if we want them near!

Isn’t it love to want to see those we love happy.  To b the one to make that person happy is a bit selfish, yet we have to know that if we love unconditionally, we give true love, and what else is such a real, true gift? Unconditional love is the best gift because it's everlasting and it grows as it’s given away!  If we don't have love, what is our life about?

Still, it sometimes happens that we find ourselves loving someone who, for whatever reason, is simply incapable of embracing our love and we are left to wonder and wander, and sometimes we wait with hopes of things working out, patiently wondering if we are wasting our precious time here...Low and behold, sometimes things do work themselves out!  Besides, who is to say exactly what the true meaning of wasting time?  All we can take with us when it's our turn to exit this plane is our experience, no?

Sometimes we can only wait and wonder and prepare and force ourselves to forge ahead without what we really want, for the people who love us, so they don’t suffer watching our heavy heart...

Some people think it's more difficult to miss someone when they are “alive” and still untouchable.

I'm not convinced either's any easier, altho it is human nature to want the object of our affection near, and the agony of knowing some of them walk the Earth seems unbearable at times, to have the memories of true love, and to enjoy the unconditional, that I want ONLY WHAT MAKES THEM HAPPY is an AWESOME, incredible, indescribable, (the only word I have for it is love) feeling that brings me peace, gives me hope (I know I’m not the only one because I have also received this Devine gift) and reminds me that LOVE IS HERE.  Not just death and not just love, but unconditional love is still here.  It lives and breathes and grows and begins anew every day.

 
I’ve also met the "walking dead" and I’m not talking about spiritual beings.  I mean the protective people, afraid of feelings, separated from the full experience...which is worse?

"Alive" or "dead", it's spiritual and therefore human nature to want to connect, really connect with those we love.  

How can that b wrong?  It only feels wrong to experience loss because it's painful until we realize that death, in all forms, is only a beginning and therefore a beautiful thing!

Sometimes it's difficult to let go.  Hearts on fire with "nowhere" to burn wonder have to wonder what is real, what can we count on?

I understand because I am a spiritual bean ~hahaha~ having human experiences...My losses help me understand your losses.

remembering my "lost" loved ones fondly, with smiles on my face, in hopes that they have happiness too.

I am grateful for the ability to love and honored to have loved some beautiful human and spiritual beans~haha~ eventho I have to love some of them from a distance.  I mean, I found real and everlasting love and it’s not painful, it’s beautiful!

So this  Memorial Day, I will not b sad.  I will be loving and laughing and cooking and THANKFUL for my life and loves, saluting ALL the men and women who have fought, and those who continue to fight, for the freedom to love, (Thank You is not enough) remembering my "lost" loved ones fondly, with smiles on my face, in hopes that they have happiness too.

How about you?  I look forward to your comments here!

May God Bless you in every way~

XOXO
