Who's with you on your journey?

Good morning my beautiful friends; I trust you are all finding yourselves well.

​Have you ever put yourself in a position of expecting someone to be on your journey with you?  I have.  We work so hard in our lives, wanting, waiting for everything to work out for us.  When we suffer or feel like we will never get what we want, we start to put expectations on people.  We want people to do what we want and that's it...however the people are doing the exact same thing.  We are having a tug-of-war with everyone around us.  

My question, who is really on your journey?  We are all on our own journey.  I think we are to be learning patience and see how we can help each other out along the way.  I recently started to date and put myself on an app.  What's funny is that I have been imposing what I want on people.  I want someone who it going to be with me on my journey, as I would be with them on theirs.  However, I am realizing the only one on my journey is me.  I can have people walk with me, participate with me; but I am on my own quest as the people around me are on theirs.  We are all actually helping people along as they are helping us.

It sounds confusing; however, when you really think about what you are up too, is it your dream or someone else's.  You have to really think about it for a second, because we make ourselves miserable when we think we are not getting what we want.  I am on my own journey, doing my own thing and figuring it out.  I have people coming into my life showing me what I deserve and don't deserve.  It really is quite an amazing space to be in.  I am coming to the realization that whoever is in my life may not be there forever, so it is so important to take advantage of the moments we have.  

In this time in my life I am starting to look and see who I want to have in my life.  What's important is who will compliment my life, not take it over or do my life for me, as I would not do for them.  Even though people come together, we need to remember we are still on our own journeys.  Sometimes we mesh, and sometimes we don't.  We need to learn patience and compassion with each other. 

It's so funny how all of a sudden we will see an inspiration and it puts everything you are doing into perspective.  No matter what we are doing in our lives, we are in charge of our life, our journey.  No one can tell us what we can or can't do.  We just have to make the best decisions for ourselves and continue the walk.  We will never be alone.

Good morning my friends...I hope you are all finding yourselves happy and well.

I love inspirations, especially the ones that have a huge impact on me.  When I know they touch my heart, I know someone in my circle somewhere needs to see it. 

The one major thing I teach people is to realize that everything that has occurred in their life has been for their highest good.  We may not understand it at the time of the even but we will understand it in hindsight.  

When you are able to look at a situation, and see it from multiple perspectives you then can see the lesson.  You will then see there is a bigger picture to everything that happens in our lives.  Most things we have been through have been a lesson to teach.  We are the students and our teachers come in all different types of situations.  When you can look at your life and where you have been, you can see that everything has prepared you for today.

Never regret a day in your life.  You can never be who you are today without all that has been in your life.  You have learned so much from your past, you need all of it to be who you are.  

Good days give happiness, bad days give experience, worst days give lessons and best days give memories.  Every single thing has taught you so much.  The problem is; we take advantage of all of it.  We don't take time to celebrate, smell the roses, and take in all the beauty around us.  When things seem difficult or bad, we only see what is in front of us.  We forget that there has been much more good than bad in our lives.  

Now, when I say that, I know there are plenty who have been through hell and back.  However, when saying that, most times, lessons are being ignored or we are too afraid to do something different.  We have to learn stand up and start making changes for ourselves, even when things almost impossible.  

I have seen some pretty bad stuff in my day, along with experiencing some crap; however, I could never be me without it all.  I learned how I want to be in life and how I want to treat others.  I have also learned how strong and creative I am because of it all.  When we accept where we have been, where we are going is so much brighter.  

Love all of your life.  Take it all in.  See the lesson and how well you have handled it.  You will be amazing at who you truly are.

Are you strong or weak...only you get to decide.

Good morning my friends, I hope you are all finding yourselves well.
 
I came across this inspiration today and I wanted to share it with all of you.  Every day we are dealing with challenges that we may not always understand.  This inspiration spoke very loudly to me.
 
I have been doing a lot in the past year with my life.  I became unmarried, I live on my own, creating my business, paying bills, and recently started dating, along with publishing my first book.  A lot has gone on in the past year.  I am also taking myself to Italy in July.  A lot...Right?
 
When we start living our lives, things start to fall into place pretty quickly; obstacles can come to us just as fast.  As I am doing all these different things, I have also had to deal with road blocks.  I have had to deal with setbacks, shortages...you know the everyday life stuff.  What I have started to realize is how strong I really am. 
 
When you start to live your journey, you will also have a lot coming at you that may decide whether you move forward or quit.  I have found that I am a lot stronger than I thought I was.  Next month I will be in my place for 1 year...I can't believe how fast the time went, and yet I have been able to support myself and keep myself going.  I find myself tired but waking up happy and knowing I can do anything I set my mind too.  I have realized how amazing I truly am, and the only obstacle that is in front of me, is what I have put there.
 
Every day we are going through something, how we perceive it and react to it will determine how we respond.  When you can step back and look at the bigger picture, and see there is more going on than what is in front of you; you can then decide how you will respond.  Most of us live miserable lives because we refuse to look at the bigger picture.  We would rather be unhappy and make the people around us miserable, because we are afraid to be any different.
 
Have you ever just had that one person, who is around you, no matter how wonderful thing are, they are always miserable and unhappy.  The person seems to think nothing ever good happens to them, that if it’s going to be bad, it will happen to them?  We all have someone around us who are like that.  It gets to be draining and if you are not careful, you will start to take on their negativity and think the same way.
 
This inspiration is so important to really absorb.  We are always being tested, but it's not the way we think it is.  When you start to see different perspectives in your life, you will start to see that everything is actually happening for your highest good.  You start to see how you have made better choices for yourself because of the experiences you have had.  For me, seeing how strong I am, and how I am not letting the little stuff keep me down, and when the big stuff comes about, it's like a piece of cake.  I can deal with the stress as if it is really no big deal.
 
When you come across obstacles, take a deep breath and really look at the situation.  How are you responding?  How are you feeling? Are you seeing you are better than the situation?  Most importantly, are you seeing you can handle the situation without a lot of drama?
 
Today, look at everything that transpires in our day, and see it happening for you instead of against you.
 
Have a great day my friends.

Opening your mind will help heal what you see.

Good morning my beautiful friends.  I was scrolling through my memories on Facebook and came across this particular inspiration.  It means so much to me, since I almost went blind a couple of years ago. 

"The eyes are useless when the mind is blind...”  What a profound statement, and for me has been true.  When I look at my life from just a couple of years ago, I found that I was losing eyesight in my right eye.  At first I ignored it until a friend of mine said to get it checked out.  So, I did...after that all hell broke loose.  

When I finally got my eyes checked I found out that I was sick and I had too much spinal fluid building up behind my eyes causing the blindness.  I could not believe what was happening.  I had to go and get a spinal puncture and be hospitalized to get everything under control.  It was an experience I would not wish on anyone.  I can't tell you how many spinal punctures I had including a brain surgery.  It was one of the most terrifying things I had to go through.  I was told that over time my vision in my right eye would come back.  

As I waited for my eye to heal, the same thing happened to my left eye.  I had to start the whole process all over again, minus the surgery.  It was so frustrating, especially getting a lot more spinal punctures done to drain the excess fluid.  

One day, I was feeling sorry for myself and I asked "Why ME?"  My Angels responded to me, you know longer want to see the life you are living.  You are ready to see your life differently.  I could not believe what I was hearing.  If I was completely honest with myself, it was true.

I had a sinus surgery that helped significantly with the problem and I decided to change my life.  I opened my mind to the possibilities of being happy and having the courage to take the steps.  Since then I have become unmarried, living in my own space loving every day of my life.  I have noticed that my right eye can see normally and my left eye is so much better.  

As I saw my memory, I look at where I am today and how much fun I am having.  Everything around me may not be perfect but it's a life I enjoy seeing.  The more I am honest with who I am and what I want, my vision gets better and better with each passing day.  I have opened my mind and my soul to many great possibilities in my life.  Look around your life; what don't you want to see?   What do you want to see in your life?  Have the courage to take that first step towards happiness.  You won't regret it.

    I have been through a lot in my life just as everyone else; I have found that what I have gone through has always been for my highest good.  There is not a thing that I would change in my life; I would keep the good, the bad, and the ugly.

    Sharing my lessons with you helps me to be the best version of myself.  What I have learned, I share so you are the best version of yourself.  

    When we stand together we are strong and tall making a more confident and loving world.  We are forgiving our past and embracing all that is learned.  We then are teaching our children to be human and the best version of themselves.
