Taking Flight.
Remember, embracing your vulnerability is simply being honest. Say what it is you really want in your life and also where you stand today. Say it. Express it. That's all you have to do to honor the truth that lies inside your heart. After that, the universe will gently take it, dreams and hopes, burdens and pains, and bring to you all you could ever need.
(This is a small passage from the chapter titled Speaking Our Truth from Taking Flight...really needed to read my own reminder today and wanted to share with you)

Soak It Up.
It's summer around these parts and that means you need to get out and soak up as much vitamin D as you can. When you slow down and deliberately take notice of your surroundings, you're in the present moment, and being in the present moment brings things into sharper focus.
Today. So, here we go. Yes, today is slow+cumbersome on this new tool called LIFE. REDEFINING.

Happiness.
I am trusting that I am in the palm of God's hands.
I am grateful for my wonderful family. I have taught them (hopefully) the power of peace. I hope that I have showed them that living in a house without yelling as a standard mode of operation IS possible! They have opened up their hearts + their home, for no reason other than the fact that I am human + family. That is love.
I am inspired by following my heart + what feels right will only lead to success + happiness.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK: 06. 10. 09

I Run To You.
First of all, there are two areas in which we can expect to encounter fears + resistance of the false kind. The first is when we enter into the territory of unleashing our gifts + uncovering who we are + what we were created to be.
I believe when you embark in a direction where you can do the greatest good with your life that you receive strong opposition from many forces: misleading spiritual forces that would be strongly opposed to your finding the place where you can do the most good in the world; your own bad habits, negative thinking, and fears, and those around you who may resist your succeeding in a new endeavor.
The second area where fears can spring is when we move the direction of a call where we can most effectively be of service to the world. You can almost anticipate great resistance + unfounded fears when you enter these areas. After all you might just become a real tool for overcoming injustice, ignorance, poverty, sickness, and the many other sufferings in the world around you.
When I encounter those times where the line is not clear I find it of great importance to have extended times of being quiet, praying, + then listening. Finally, never discount the importance of close friends + community in helping you to discern what is going on in your life. They can be a Godsend in keeping you on the path.
I believe when you embark in a direction where you can do the greatest good with your life that you receive strong opposition from many forces: misleading spiritual forces that would be strongly opposed to your finding the place where you can do the most good in the world; your own bad habits, negative thinking, and fears, and those around you who may resist your succeeding in a new endeavor.
These forces can all align themselves to keep you from moving ahead.

TGIF.
OK - did I make it?
Is it still Friday?
I hope so! I need some TGIF love today.
It's been a transition week over here.
Backpacks and homework have been replaced with googles and lemonade stands.
I'm trusting that everything will be exactly what it needs to be (not what I need it to be). The uncertainty and ambiguity of feeling very anxious and vulnerable.
I'm inspired by lazy summer days that smell like chlorine, sunscreen, and popsicles.
Happy TGIF! Please do share your TGIF thoughts today!
