Clutter

Who hasn't at one time or another in their life been victim of clutter?? Clutter will take over your life if you let it.... Don't let it !!!  I am trying to get better control over the clutter in my life and mind and came across this great article from Elephant Journal.

It is entitled Transform Your Mind the Clutter-free Way. by Kathrina Jane B. Tiangco. Wonderful suggestions and ideas to help you realize the price you are paying for having too much clutter.

Start where you are and don't be afraid to reclaim your life !

The Knots Prayer

As I was surfing the web I cam across this prayer.....

The Knots Prayer

Dear God:

Please untie the knots

that are in my mind,

my heart and my life.

Remove the have nots,

the can nots and the do nots

that I have in my mind.

Erase the will nots,

may nots,

might nots that may find

a home in my heart.

Release me from the could nots,

would nots, and

should nots that obstruct my life.

And most of all,

Dear God,

I ask that you remove from my mind,

my heart, and my life all of the 'am nots'

that I have allowed to hold me back,

especially the thought

that I am not good enough.

AMEN

Author know to God

I wish for you a day that is not tied up in knots......

BELIEVE

When people ask what is your "word" it does not take me long to respond. It is Believe.... It is the word that gets me back on track.... keep going you will get there... it is the word that lets me know that people are watching out for me... have faith... It is the word that lets me know that I have an army of people looking over me and guiding me... It is the word that makes me stop and think and listen to my heart.

I have come to collect "Believe" things.... shirts, bumper stickers, boxes, banners, and anything else I can get my hand on. That one word has come to represent so much to me. Almost like the little engine that could... keep trying and believe in yourself and you will reach your dreams!

I believe with the wonder of a child that we really live in a magical world
I believe that people are kind and good
I believe that I am on the right path- no matter how hard it is some days
I believe that if we just stop and look around we would be amazed at the beauty that surrounds us
I believe in all things possible
I believe in you
I believe in me.....

It's My Life....

It's my life.... its now or never....  I need to make changes in my life and I need to make them now !! I have always loved this song from Bon  Jovi (well it may have something to do with their lead singer) and I think it will be on repeat on my Ipod!!  I need to confront something I have been putting off because I  did not want to deal with it. However, by putting it off I have let others take advantage of me. That is now over ! Just because I do not want to deal with it doesn't mean that I should not deal with it.

I need some courage to take this on and I need all the good thoughts that I can get!
And of course some Mr. Jon Bon Jovi!!

Have a great day !

Awesome

Have you ever just stopped and stared at the sky? The colors, the shapes, and the light. It can make you feel that you are in the presence of something much larger than yourself. Take the time to really look around... The world is a beautiful place and sometimes we need to be reminded of that!

Have a beautiful day.

Pamper yourself

Do you pamper yourself?? How do you pamper yourself?? Why is it that I always put myself at the bottom of the list and there never is any time, energy, or money for me??  How do I change it??

Well as I look back on this year, if I don't do it no one else will so let the pampering begin!!
I just got all kinds of nice smelling lotions and potions for Christmas so that would be a great place to start- just taking an extra 5 minutes to slather on some lotion and smell good.
*Get outside and enjoy the day- feeling the sun on your face and fresh air can give me a boost and reenergize me
*Yoga- I always have good intentions of doing it and just never getting to it- I love how I feel after so I am not sure why I don't commit and do it.  That would be a very positive thing to do and would pamper my body and mind

I am going to go on a pampering quest and discover all kinds of ways to put myself first!
