2016 - Live.Live.Live

"Do not go through the motions of life, but give your life its expression from your heart and you will find you live!' 

As I closed 2015 my hearts advice for myself I shared with the world. Live. Live. Live. It is the beginning , and it is such a strong feeling walking into 2016. My God must have loved me special for this moment to come. He must love you special too, if you are here reading this message!

These words present themselves to me, and they only have power if you will let them flow through your lives;



The heart knows its way
which path to follow
The mind knows its way 
what it feels it should think
The soul knows its purpose
Let it live, so you will know it too!

To live is not easy. It requires a decisive acknowledgement that an action must be performed. We must wake up and show up to life, and then begin the action of living. It is something you learn to focus on when your back is against the wall, and your hope in what was has gone. To live becomes an action in survival. It is no longer a luxury of chance.

It is much harder to live when everything is going well and there is no thought of time and living. The motions are automatic as time is discarded absentmindedly. The losses are swift and not painful until the end arrives and there is no time - simply odes of "I wish" or "if I only had".

I challenge you, and I challenge me to take the action to live daily. Step into the water filled with rocks, the unknown, and conquer discovery. It is only as we live that we can do something for another - love, share, give, comfort, inspire!

The past has gone a second ago. Live. Live. Live.

Let's Talk... A Love That Lasts

The courage to carry “To have a love that lasts forever, is to truly understand vows and commitment” (Eversley,2016) In all of my forty six years of life  I have waited for the commitment of true love. To really believe that there are people in this world who can cherish and care for another romantically has become a faded dream. A dream which has been archived into the fantasy part of my mental library. The love stories of long marriages  which are not abusive or filled with indiscretions seem ancient. The new lifestyle sets a pathway to divorces which have become their own academy awards on film. Acceptance of prenuptial agreements and exit clauses are now necessary when thinking of love – whether in a celebrity career or leading a nondescript livelihood. To this end I did weep when I read  from a friend and learned of his devotion, marriage and love for his wife. Let’s be real, and understand this is a true ongoing story of endurance, commitment, passion fo...

Reflections - Value Each Day!

Putting a value on time .. I’ve never been able to figure weekends out. I love Mondays. In fact give me everyday of the week and I love them. I love the days because there are so many opportunities and things  which are waiting for my discovery! Each day brings something new. For me it may be the same job status, the same car, the same family, the same 24 hours- what makes it different is me. The challenges never change, but my attitude does. I must change to go after my dreams, desires, to fulfill my purpose. I might look the same on the outside, but quite a lot is happening on the inside. I’m dreaming! There is a plan for something more to happen, then it happens unexpectedly and I’m ready! While waiting I’m there seeking out, creating, and finding each day different. Reflection: Enjoy each day Pause, wait, look around and smell the scent of the present you are in. I smell the salt in the sea wherever I am when I pause. That’s my moment of joy. Facing the sun, with t...

A Canopy of Grace

Photo Credits: unsplash.com/Thom Milkovic   Drop your canopy O Lord, let it fall on the earth. Let it pick up all the people who are suffering and hurt. Let your canopy be big enough, that everyone can fit, Lord please I beg you, allow everyone to see it. Drop your canopy on the ground O Lord, Because some people cannot look up high For these are the people who love you, and without it may surely die. Drop your canopy dear Lord, for the little children to see Especially, the ones who are impoverished and living in poverty Drop your biggest canopy dear God on the earth Let it be enough, like a berth awaiting vessels to sail A mooring prepared with glorious flair, just waiting For the people to get there. Drop it, just drop it on the earth Drop it because you care. Please let your canopy fall dear Lord, because not everyone can see Let the ones who need it most dear Lord, be covered by its safety. Drop your canopy my Lord and Savior, drop it on the...
