I hope you have a had a very lovely start to your year.

I thought I would add some thoughts that may help you to a very wonderful year…

A New Year awakens possibilities, hopes and aspirations…
Nurture them…it is easy to fall into habits and previous routines by end of January or February…
Your aspirations are always with you…just remind yourself of them…

At the start of a year or at the end of the prior one, we clutch our loved ones and remind them how much they mean to us. We remember fond memories and do our best to forget those not so fond.
Hold them deeply…your love for them is priceless…for yourself, and for them…
 
Sometimes some may not say those words you have been wanting to hear…
It does not mean it is due to any shortcomings in you…
Love them anyway…and yourself…
 
There are those for whom you light up their world…
Whether they be a lover, a friend, a relative, a pet, or someone new…
You are still lighting up the world…your light burns brighter each time…
 
Do not forget what you offer this world…
Too often we get caught up with the day, and ups and downs…
A ship may rock up and down, but doesn't forget its path…
It is ok if you experience turbulence, but stay true to your course…

There are those wanting to adore you for you…
Allow them to do that…it is not just about you receiving, but allowing them to give too…
Both have their own meaning to the heart…

Take this year and know that everything is to play for…
It doesn't matter the past that you accumulated…
It is not an accumulation world but a flow one…
In changing you, you change what you accumulate…
The past disappears, new experiences and people and happenings appear…
Everything is changeable…

Your future is bright and large…with you very PRESENT in it…

To YOU, and to one of your most memorable years EVER.

With Much Love,

A friend suggested to me to write a post on “Happiness”.  So I thought a post about “Recipe to Happiness” could be fun…

Ingredients to include, and not include in your life.  Starting with those to avoid…

Fear – Focusing on that which hasn’t happened yet can bring you more torment than it might if it does (and attract more also).

Anger – A moment’s miscontrol can lead to consequences and regret beyond the moment.  Which can lead to…

Guilt – Questioning an action or decision beyond when it happened.  It happened back then, you can drop the burden/load now.  Correct whatever you need to, and go forward with a free mind.  A heavy load just slows the rest of your journey…

INGREDIENTS TO INCLUDE…

Love – The truth is when you experience love, it is another (or some ‘thing’) enabling you to find the love within you.  Your whole physical experience is about revealing more of who you are.  You are in a beautiful place to do that.

Happiness – Oftentimes a state people allow themselves to feel when they have, be, or do something.  Essentially, those conditions act like ‘switches’ for you to turn on your allowance of this state.  Allow yourself to feel it now.  And having, being, doing what you want will come sooner anyway.

Self-worth – Much like happiness, people place conditions on how they see themselves.  Oftentimes they look around where they are, or look to their past, perform evaluations based on their beliefs, and determine their ‘value’.

Allow yourself to set no conditions on your ‘value’ or self-worth.  Or better still, project the most magnanimous dreams into your future, feel and embody yourself within them, and transform your now.  Expect your world and everyone within it to change.   It can’t not.  When you truly change how you see yourself in your now, you change everything that you see from your now – and that’s how you change your future, and your possibilities in your now.
