Surrender

Everyday I learn something new about myself and I am always so amazed at what I discover. I am just like everyone else and I go back to the times when i'd beat myself up over feeling a certain way or wanting to do certain things that may have displeased others. No matter what you have to follow your heart and the times when you need to be courageous to take the steps to finding yourself, you need to believe in yourself and know that everything is working out. It's as if we always have these amazing guides/guardian angels. I think it's so important to fall inlove with yourself. I want to fall inlove with myself and support and be there for myself unconditionally. I know that it is the only way that I can truly open myself up to love another fully. And I want someone who loves themselves too.

 Surrender to what is present and know that you are always protected and guided. Once you let go, grace will flow into your life. Let go of your fears and just live freely. Surrender. Fall inlove with yourself.

Happiness

When I'm feeling down and I'm trying to find happiness I ask myself...
What was it I loved when I was a child? And I remember...
I LOVED being at my Papanonno's house, sitting around the table listening to the adults in my life talking, playing school with my little sister, doing fashion shows, playing a mother role to my little sister, writing in my diary about ALL the boys I crushed on, playing with my best friend, watching disney movies (especially Lion King, but I HATE the part when Simba's dad, Muffasa dies), watching full house, who's the boss, saved by the bell, being videotaped by my uncle Joe, singing, dancing, watching the wizard of oz at my great grand parent's house, protecting my dad when my parents wrestled, protecting my parents during family fights, watching Barney with my little sister, getting a new puppy, writing poems, listening to Celine Dion, Shania Twain, Ace of Base (especially, Its a beautiful life), making my parents proud, being swung around by my uncle Carlos, having my back tickled by my aunt, cuddling with any of my dogs, having dates with my uncle Joe. I know there are many more. If you're searching for happiness, just know that it's already inside you, take a closer look :) Choose the Happy state of mind because you deserve it :)

Hugs,

Mistakes

Know that there are no mistakes because everything you have experienced has made you the beautiful person you are today.

I have had a rough year and I can tell you right now that all the issues I thought were real were actually all illusions. Everything in your mind is an illusion unless you are in the present moment. Thoughts or stories of the past or future, all illusions. It has nothing to do with what is actually true in the moment. Often we stress about yesterday or tomorrow, and harm our bodies with the negative thought patterns, but whats the point if it doesn't exist right now?? Why stress about yesterday whens its over? Why stress about tomorrow, when it hasn't come yet? I know that oneday I'll self publish all my blogs and pass them down to everyone in my future that I love and care about. Something to know me by.

So back to my opening line. If I never stole money from my Nonna when I was 8 years old, I may have never learned my lesson and might have been a bank robber in my 20's. It doesn't matter how big or small you "identify" your bad doings in your past, its all done with, so move on. Thank yourself for it and be done with it. I want you all to know that you are always being guided and that no matter what you are loved, cherished, and honoured by someone. Set yourself free from anything you considered a mistake in your past...remember that there are no mistakes.

Take some time to quiet your mind today.

Hugs,
