Acceptance
Day 2 of working on my vision board and my goals for 2022. I think one of the biggest challenges for me is acceptance. It’s a broad subject but I’m taking slices of it and digesting it slowly. I find it easier to accept people and situations as they are than to accept I didContinue reading “Acceptance”
Visions & Dreams
I started doing vision boards over a decade ago. My shrink got me doing it so I could focus on my dreams daily. Through the years my dreams and priorities have changed. I usually have at least a few things that represent tangible, material things like a vehicle. This year my visions are about me.Continue reading “Visions & Dreams”
The Reason For The Season
Here’s our reminder of why we have a day called Christmas. I believe many get caught up in the commercialization and try to do bigger and better rather than against our neighbors or ourselves from the previous years. We fall into the trap of marketing and corporate greed trying to buy things the majority ofContinue reading “The Reason For The Season”
It’s Not What You Are Running To But What You Are Running From
I wanna talk about desperate, bottom of the bottom, sick and tired, tired and sick, miserable, DONE. I have said and felt all of those words. I have said I am so miserable, I will eat out of a dumpster before I continue this situation, I have said God I will do whatever just takeContinue reading “It’s Not What You Are Running To But What You Are Running From”
Window Shopping
I believe we have to look at toxic people/relationships like we are window shopping. Have you ever walked on a car lot and dreamed of exotic vehicles or walked by high-end designer stores and only looked in the window because you knew you couldn’t afford the price tag? You dreamed and imagined yourself in itContinue reading “Window Shopping”
The Other Side
In the words of one of my tribe members, “I’ve been feeling some kind of way lately.” I didn’t know what I was feeling exactly but I stopped long enough to sit with it to find out it’s called “grief”. I have underlying grief this time of year due to both my parents passing betweenContinue reading “The Other Side”
From “Can’t” to “Won’t”
Many years ago my shrink asked me to take the word “can’t” out of my vocabulary. She corrected me every time I said “I can’t do this anymore.” or anytime I put “can’t” in a sentence. She asked that I replace it with “won’t” or “will not” because “can’t” means I don’t have control. WeContinue reading “From “Can’t” to “Won’t””
From Pity Party To Praying
The other day I had a conversation with someone I know very well and they said a few things that sounded like they were searching for compassion, encouragement and they needed reinforcement. Instead of doing those actions, I asked this, “Why are you victim-minded right now?” They got very quiet and then in a strongContinue reading “From Pity Party To Praying”
Pay It Forward By Helping Others
As you may have read, I’ve ignored and dismissed my energy and intuition for years. I’ve been in therapy for over a decade and heard but did not always listen. Many times I was in denial. The one thing that has helped me most is others sharing their personal stories. I’ve listened, read, watched soContinue reading “Pay It Forward By Helping Others”
