Life Is A Banquet - Eat Up !!!!

There is so much in life to experience, but most people allow life to pass them by. We choose the allow fear, and/or judgement to get in the way.

The life that each of us is living is the only one we have . This is no dress rehearsal and there will be no do overs. So, why do so many people think about a life they want but make no effort to live the life they want? The main reason is fear. Fear that we don’t deserve or can’t achieve the life we want. And, that fear usually get in the way of us stepping out of our routine or comfort zone to go and get what we want.

We each should want our life to be full of a whole lot of wonderful, not full of regrets. And, the only way to achieve that wonderful life that we want is to live each moment to the fullest. Every experience in life should be appreciated even the ones that are uncomfortable, because even being uncomfortable has it’s benefits. Dream your wildest dream and make it happen. You may not succeed the first time, but you will gain experience to help you move forward. It may not be in the exact direction that you wanted to go, but you will definitely move forward. And, there is never a downside to moving forward.

Live and love fearlessly, and know that whatever the outcome it is for your highest good.

Who We Are and The Relationships We Need

For every relationship you are in there is always an ending, well not always but some in some cases. When a relationship ends the worst thing you can do for yourself and the next person your are going to be with is to not take that moment in between to clear out the cob webs, get your mind right, and re-evaluate yourself figuring out what you need and want in your life and from a relationship.

The person you were 10 years ago is very different for the person you are now, and for that reason your wants and needs are different, and is probably the reason your past relationship came to an end. The two of you are different people than you were when you met. The one thing that we all seem to forget is that we are all growing and changing every minute of everyday, and what worked for you a few year ago will probably not work for you today.

So, when are relationship of any kind comes to an end you can’t look at it as if something went wrong, because nothing is wrong things are just different. What has happened is that you and the other person have grown apart. One or both of you becomes uncomfortable. There are times when we can ride it out and over look the differences, but in many cases we can’t. And there is nothing wrong with that. We can’t always look at things that don’t work as failure but as an opportunity to learn yourself better. There is no need to feel wronged or let down, but empowered with the knowledge that you have been given to move onto be a better you .

The Fairytale & the Facts

This generation is at a great disadvantage. We have grown up in a time where movies and television have romanticize relationships at such a level that we don’t look at relationships realistically, nor do we have realistic expectation of what a relationship should be. I always say they should have a relationship course in high school to help us better understand how to better be in them.

We seem to know that we want companionship and unbeknownst to most of us we need companionship. So we walk through the world only acknowledging our physical needs and desires, and not thinking about our mental and spiritual needs.

Here’s what’s real, Cinderella is a fairytale. There is no such thing happily ever after, but there is day-by-day and minute-by-minute. Relationships are complicated, messy, exciting, beautiful and joyous. But, to succeed they require constant work , the same committed amount of work you had at the beginning of your relationship should remain throughout your relationship.

A relationship should start with two people knowing what they need and want from a relationship.

Do you look at your relationships through the glasses of the Fairytale or do you look at them with the facts as they really are??

To Hell and Back

“To Hell and Back”

Today makes the one year anniversary of my last Blog. One year ago I felt broken and lost, and in a place I had never seen before. Since I am a firm believer that it is challenge that brings growth I have to believe that the challenges that I have experienced were for my highest good; for my growth.

I think that over the past few years we have forgotten what okay really means. It means food in our stomachs and a roof over our heads, not what new, newer, bigger thing we think we should have.

I stand today in gratitude for the lessons I have learned and with the knowledge that I will always be okay, but most of all “God’s got me”.

Don't Hide Love

I always find it sad when we run from, deny, or hide the one thing that we all want the most - to love and to be loved. We make fun of people when they want to spend time with, talk to, or talk about their someone special, and in many cases our fear of expressing our feeling is so strong we would rather lose someone then let them know how much they mean to us.

If love is the one thing that we all desire and hopefully will experience then my question would be why do we make fun of something so serious, fragile and sacred?

Love is all the adjectives you can find. Love can be the most amazing healing gift that someone can give to you, and in the blink of an eye it can be the most painful feeling you have ever experienced. But, at the end of the day Love is Love. Regardless of where it comes from it is something that you cannot live without.

Love is nothing to be afraid of. If you respect it, and nurture it love can be all the amazing things that you want it to be. But, when you treat it with disrespect then that is when it becomes the heartbreak that you fear. There are two things to remember 1) that everything must change and how you or your partner feel today you may not feel tomorrow and 2) even if the relationship ends remember that love doesn’t end it is just that the relationship is over.

So, go on out and love with your whole heart and don’t fear what hasn’t happened or being made a fool. I don’t know about you but I would rather be made a fool, then live a life without love.
