La dispute



If there’s anything to guarantee besides death in this world is that one is guaranteed to be alone with one’s thoughts. “Yeah babe! It’s just you and me babe; you and those thoughts that roll around in your head!” Everybody’s got some; distinct and significant to the individual. Through my readings, it is said that your thoughts don’t always have to be a bad thing; what we need to do though is differentiate between the good and the not so good; it is also understood that because of continuous circumstances within one’s life specific thoughts would generally bombard the mind.

No rocket science here; but because of our hurdles and stumbles there is no need to accept, retire or be bitter in life. Life goes on! Move along with it darlings. Remember, despite its sham and drudgery, it is still a beautiful world – so be un-afraid to truly live, to truly face the suffering, and to allow yourself to heal! When we hold on to hurt brought on by another it does not amount to any good; it only holds us back from our blessings. Let your low days and moments be the fuel to rise up and continue moving forward with pride, with grace, and with whispers of hope. Let your thoughts be light, let your thoughts be of truth, let your thoughts be all you wish them to be – and smile that indeed one day they will materialize! J

I will leave you with a lovely quote that reminds us that what we witness and abide with in life does not make who we are – but only hark to strengthen our steps and our spirit! J

“When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That is the message he is sending.” – Thich Nhat Hanh

So my darlings, learn to forgive your fellow man; for as they say; they know not what they do. They also are on a journey of self-discovery, of truth, and hopefully of resilience! Be that light and pass it on with that unique and radiant elegance – only you know how to carry as you do! J

Bless-up!

Each Moment



Tis true, we humans always want more; that is our nature. However if we are constantly in worry or upset because of it, we can bring stress, unhappiness and disease to ourselves. Remember be the master! Learn and practice the art of contentment. Learn to be grateful.

It's too hot! It's too cold! It is too windy! Life right now is too slow! Gosh, why must I live next to the hotel of birds that was built outside my bedroom window!? [haha] You are where you're supposed to be in this moment of time. Accept that! It is all so perfect!

Each moment is a lovely one. Enjoy your single life, it won't be forever... And those series of unfortunate events that are happening at the moment...haven't you realized that they somehow work themselves out?! Every daunting moment, no matter the dread it brings, take a breath...and step outside of the situation. Say "Gracias a dios para bien y mala"... "Thank-you God/Universe for the good and the bad!" You are clearing up your karma, and resolving and learning and the best thing would be to come out resilient!

Each moment is an epic adventure...

Being weak won't help... you must always be strong.

Yes, tis true...life doesn't seem peachy always.

However embrace it all...each moment...

I may not be in my choice of career or what I studied in University...I may be nowhere near as I'd like to be with my progress of being successful. At times I may feel lonely...but everything is for a moment in life. Enjoy the journey...

I'm happy still...to wake up and peer outside my window, and one day I see the 'London-Eye' and another day I see the 'Champs Elysees', and then 'Palm Trees' the next. So the moment I wake up to the sound of a woman pushing and selling from a grocery cart and yelling 'Tamales!!!" then I should smile on those days also...
