Change Is Constant!

Change Is Constant!

Anything not changing is dying!

Change is growth!

Opportunities abound in change.

But.

Do we see the opportunities?

We see opportunities when we let go of trying to control all the things.

I find that I let go of the need to control every aspect of everything when I am being in gratitude for all the things.

The need to control by running, jumping, clawing, screeching, biting the bullet, holding on for dear life no longer serves me.  She has served me well.  I am thankful for arriving in this always new place in my life, with her help.

Change Is Constant!

Be grateful for your Blessings!

Gratitude opens you up to seeing possibilities every way you turn.

It is so much better to receive than it is to control.

It is a good thing to be able to let go of the need to control everything in this day, week, month of always change.

Letting go of control is hard.

It’s what we do.

We make the stuff happen.

There is a way to put in as much energy and make things happen without all the effort.

Do you believe in a power that created you and all things?

Is your faith as big as a mustard seed?

Have faith in, and trust, that you are loved, supported, nurtured and protected.

Just take a look back and see how your needs have always been taken care of.

Have faith in, and trust, that your needs are always being provided to you.

Make space to check in with yourself every day.

Quiet Time!

First thing in the morning is best.

Get to know you again.

It is fun looking at yourself connecting the dots from who you were to who you are.

The paradox is that although you are always changing, you have always been the same.

You have never not been who you are.

The problem is that we see the flaws that do not exist instead of the beauty we are.

Having a first thing in the morning check in with your inner being, your soul, your higher power, you, is a good way to tap into and remember all that is good and right with you.

Sacred Me Time grooms us for Constant Change.

You can’t control change.

You always make it to the other side.

Because.

Change Is Constant!

Cracked Open

by with No Comment BEGINNINGSCHANGECOURGAGEFAITHFLOWGROWTH

Do you know what cracked open feels like?

I had no idea what that meant.

Granted I have been cracked open a lot of times but had no clue.

I have come to find out that it means feeling what is tender and raw underneath the surface.

It is like literally cracking something, anything open.

You get to see what is inside eating at you. You get to see the raw flesh oozing out. Yes, oozing. Pus-like. Yes. I know it sounds disgusting, but that is what cracked open is all about.

It is getting in touch with those real feelings that stay covered up never seeing the light of day. The thing that is never examined, never let free, festers and becomes putrid.

These are the scary feelings you don’t necessarily pretend aren’t there. You just don’t know how to face them. They are hard to look at even though they are never far from your thoughts.

They drive you to do more.

To keep going even when you can’t keep your eyes open.

They give you the fortitude to never quit when all you want to do is to not do that thing.

What happens when you give in to being cracked open is that you set your self free.

You let those pent up feelings ooze out.

Those sticky, taking their time so you can feel them, scary, fearful thoughts you would not allow the time of day get to take all the time they need to ooze right on up out of you.

Raw and real.

You feel every though in a way you have never ever felt before.

You get to examine every one of them. There is no escape.

CRACKED OPEN!

They hurt. They are in your face and you can’t turn away.

But you know what?

Since you can’t stop the nastiness from flowing what happens next is a cleansing.

There is no more oozing as you come face-to-face with the things you refused to look at. Refused to deal with.

That dark night of the soul falls away and you begin to feel the warmth and the light of for real healing and soothing.

There is light at the end of the tunnel.

You just had to look at the monster you thought would stay under the bed.

The monster had feelings that needed to be released, looked at, examined and felt.

Released because you can’t stop it, looked at because it’s time, examined because you have to and felt because you have no choice.

All the stuff you swept under the rug finally gets exposed.

Cracked open, set free, cleaned up, transformed into stuff you needed and can use.

Stuff that sets your heart free.

Stuff that lets you see that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

Stuff that lets you know you are firmly on your path and have always been.

Stuff that lets you know all the things you are doing are the right things.

Cracked open to all that is good, right and true to and for you.

Cracked open to yet another new beginning to all that you are.

Cracked open was hard and painful but opened up into joy and peace.

Allow yourself to spend time with the nigglings that keep tugging at your heart and your thoughts. Take a look at the feelings that keep creeping into your thoughts.

When you don’t they grow into a discomfort you eventually can no longer ignore.

They will confront you up close and personal all up in your face.

Set them free.

Set you free.

Let the sludge, the thickness ooze out so the good, the light and the peace can flow in.

Peace. Love. Blessings

Tenacity

by with No Comment BELIEFSCHOICECHOOSECOMMITCOURGAGEDETERMINATIONEVOLVEFAITHGROWTHPOWERSTRENGTHTENACITY

Tenacity.

One word.

Tenacity is the power and the ability to hold on, no matter what!

The dictionary says tenacity is:

  • the quality or fact of being able to grip something firmly; grip.

  • the quality or fact of being very determined; determination.

  • the quality or fact of continuing to exist; persistence.

    • What a wonderful word!

    What a horrible word!

    But tenacious is what we are. You. Me. Us. All of us!

    We hold on tight to what ever it is we are believing in at any moment in time. Nothing can dissuade us from the thing we have chosen to hold on to.

    Hold On Tight! Never Let Go! Be Tenacious

    Nothing.

    And it is a good thing.

    This is the power of choice.

    And, we are always choosing.

    There is absolutely no right, or wrong in this because it is personal.

    Personal to you. Personal to me. Personal to each and every one of us.

    I cannot make you let go of the thing you are tenaciously holding on to, nor can you make me.

    How powerful is that?

    How powerful you are!

    Yes. We can be judged for whatever, and even everything we tenaciously hold on to.

    Judgement doesn’t matter.

    When you don’t care about what someone thinks, or says about you, that is true power, and, absolute freedom.

    You will not bend, or break, to mold to any outside force.

    Hold tight to your beliefs. They serve you in whatever capacity you are needing in this moment.

    Tenacity is an awesome ability to develop and strengthen.

    The good thing about tenacity, as in all things, is that we will in time come to know if the thing we are fiercely holding on to is worth our time and energy.

    As the very wise saying goes – YOU WILL NEVER GET IT DONE, AND, YOU WILL NEVER GET IT WRONG!

    This means you will forever grow and evolve.

    So go for it!

    Since we can never truly know what is right or wrong with someone else, do what you do with everything you have to give. In other words, be as tenacious as you can be!

    Give your everything for that which you believe in because you will never get it done, and, you will never get it wrong!

    You will hit the pavement, or, you will soar!

    Either way, you will give all you have to give to living your life.

    There is no life without something to believe in. Something to fully commit to.

    Something to hold as life or death to you.

    Because it is.

    You die trying or you die because you did not try.

    Own your life, be tenacious, and give it everything you have to give!

    Your very life depends on it!

    No judgement.

    You are absolutely free to own every belief, every choice, and every decision.

    There isn’t any other way, and no one can change it, no matter how hard they try.

    Here’s to you, to your tenacity, to holding on to your beliefs, and to being the most powerful, awesome you that you already are!
