EMBRACE CHANGE - 11-24-2013 - Inspiration from source: Embrace change. 

Woke up this morning with the thought pulsing in my brain. Looked out the window to see a completely different landscape than was there yesterday - just as pretty as the one from yesterday, but completely different. Tuned into facebook and all my inspirational messages were saying the same thing. Wow. Change is making a case for itself today. And truth, my life is better since I stopped fighting change. 

REALITY - 11/20/2013 - Inspiration from the Source: Your reality may not be my reality, but that does not mean that either of us are "wrong." Throughout history many mythologies have been created to express the inner workings of the universe. Some, which seemed reasonable when created, seem farfetched to a modern thinker. Who knows what, in the future, will pass for religion, who knows where science will take us, who knows what mythologies will rise and fade as time passes. What is true today, very well may be laughable to a future generation.

GRATITUDE - November 18, 2013 -  Inspiration from the Source: Gratitude is at the core of happiness. I woke up giddy with joy and love this morning. The first thought I had was "thank you for this day." The first thing I said to my partner this a.m. was "thank you for last night, for yesterday, and for loving me." And the first thing he said to me was, "Thank YOU!"

CLARITY - 11/14/2013 - Inspiration from the Source: We must always strive to see clearly. It is interesting that back in March when I first began meditating I was asked by the inner voice, "what would you like most of all?" My answer was, "to see more clearly, to heal inside, to see and accept the truth." I heard the voice say, "we can help with that." I meant to see both through my eyes (through which I have never been able to see the stars without glasses on), and into my spirit, which I feel had been closed for a very long time.

SELF MASTERY - Inspiration from the Source: "You can strive only to master yourself and set an example of possibilities - but you don't really need to argue or debate about it." Words to live by. To each his own, right? Wish I could master this one! 

CHANGE - November 12, 2013 - Inspiration from Source. Change. 11/12/13 - I wake up sensing that something is about to change. No idea what, but my body and my mind has been whispering "change is coming" for awhile, and as I saw the date I thought...maybe today is the start of that change. 

LETTING GO - November 10, 2013 - Inspiration from Source - 

This a.m., working on letting go of much in my home because I'm not kidding about the tiny house thing - if it's staying with me, it has to hang on a wall, or make good building materials, or be worn on my person. I am ready to pare down to the very basic of basic (and a few cool pairs of boots). I will buy a little piece of mountain land. 

MIND MATTERS - November 1, 2013 - Inspiration from Source: The Mind matters. 

My stress level has been on the climb over the last ten days. First worries over mom, then worries over catching up when I got back home. This is how I used to be ALL the time - body tight like metal bands wrapped around my skin.

HELP - October 31, 2013 - Inspiration from source: Today as I sat meditating (because if I didn't my head would explode with stress) a calm, soothing voice said: "don't forget to ask for help - you cannot do it all."
