I’ve tried to develop a little routine for myself – things to purposely do in the morning that I know will make me feel calm and together, before I start my day. When I feel like my own needs and wants are attended to, I feel more likely to be productive and efficient in knocking things off the to do list. I feel more motivated and ready to give to the demands of the people and energies around me.
Goals and plans for the NEW year. Is it enough?

And recently, I’ve been interchanging my go to word the UNIVERSE, with the word GOD. But I haven’t spoken much of that word… just played with it here and there. Never really committing to it.
But this moment… the voice in my head or in my heart… “Can I find God in this?”

Another lesson in compassion: finding old journals and being okay with who I was
It’s only when I actually slow myself down from being sucked back into the past, into the hurt and into that fear based way of living, that I can pause long enough and realize I don’t have to hurt AS that old girl. I don’t have to GO back to those experiences. I can find the lesson and leave the experience….

A Spiritual Journey: Who signed me up for this?
I think most of us want growth and expansion in our lives. And when we decide that, it is almost like the Universe begins to conspire on our behalf… adding players and scenes into our days that will aid in our growth and expansion. Our little worlds suddenly become bigger, deeper, richer. And sometimes, more complicated. It’s funny. I beleive when you make the decision that you “want more” out of life, life will give you more. And there is really no way to turn back.
