Monday What? OH My Happy Monday’s

I had to rethink my past year. I kind of lost myself along the way. I settled when I shouldn’t have. I didn’t feel I got what I gave. I just had to take a step back...I want to be alone. And not in a bad way. A good way. The way when I do what I need to do for me. My kids. My life. To not compromise anymore. To not wonder what ifs or will someone call or have my back or be there tomorrow. 

I always tell people when I first separated from my ex I took 7 months to myself. To do what I wanted and needed. I need to do that again. So tonight I did something I used to do every Monday. I didn’t go out. I instead picked up Chick-fil-A and ate at home. Hung out in my bed. Watched TV. Worked. This time I added a cone to the meal and felt like a child eating it on the way home. 

Enough of anyone’s drama. Enough with trying to make other people happy and trying to have them feel what you feel. To see life how you see it. 

Do it for you! I loved my alone time. It’s not lonely trust me it’s empowering. Relaxing. Zen. Good for my soul. It helps me be creative and happy. It helps me take care of me. Now all I need is a handy man to help me hang up some stuff and I will be one happy chick. 

I am taking myself back. Back to a less complicated time. When I knew what I wanted and needed and didn’t look towards anyone to give it to me. When I knew I can be happy whenever I chose to be. 

Do it for you too!

Success...What People Don’t See

Hash House A Go Go

We walked by and everything smelled amazing so we stopped in. I have heard of it before but never tried it. We grabbed lunch here and let me tell you everything was crazy LARGE and so cool. The food was delicious. Comfort food. Great pricing. Like a big warm hug. I can’t believe it was our first time going it.

Chicken and waffles portion was the appetizer size and huge.  The waffles were delicious. The burger- yeah that’s a burger. So tasty and delicious. Yet not greasy. We took the kids away for the night and it was a lot of fun. If you ever go to Mohegan Sun be sure to stop here. I can’t wait to go back.

Who Makes You Feel Alive?

This is important. Now I am not saying change your life. I am saying look how much your life has changed. Past 6 months. Past Year. Years. Who helped you change? Who helped you come alive? Who brought you back again?

I have people in my life who makes me feel alive. Who make me want to do be happy and bring out the best in me. Who is bringing out the best in YOU? 

Those are your people. Those people are the ones you cherish. 

August 19th It’s A New Week

Happy Monday Vibes!

Fix Your Heart & Mind

We can be our worst enemy. Over thinking. Not doing what we want to do. Being held back. Someone not communicating. You have to understand holding on to pain and anger is very toxic. 

It’s How You Respond

You don’t have control over other people. Just yourself. You have to treat people how you want to be treated. You can’t one minute care for someone and next act like they don’t exist. Bottom line you can’t react. You gotta just let people do and be and act the way they want to. Not responding  and keeping your distance is best. 

But if you’re in you’re all in. If you’re out you’re all out. People don't think like that and it’s not fair to anyone.

If You Want To Grow You Have To Let Go

This came at the perfect timing. Sometimes change is forced.  Sometimes people push you out. But realize if you want to grow in life you have to adapt to change. 

I must say I never had a change I didn’t benefit or grow form. Change helps us go to a better place in life. A better step in the right direction. At first it may be hard or hurt or feel bad or feel off course but then you adapt and look back and say I never want to be in that position again. 

Stop focusing on what’s safe or comfortable. Focus on change. It’s the only way to grow.

You’re Perfect As You Are...

Stop reading old chapters over and over again. They won’t change. They were part of your journey now move forward. Embrace the new day. 

Somethings You Won’t Figure Out

You can’t fix anyone who doesn’t want to be fixed. You can’t trust someone who questions everything about you when they aren’t true to themselves. You have to let some people and situations in your life go because some things will never change. When someone dismisses you from their life you don’t need anymore questions answered. You aren’t being valued as you should. 

You don’t always get your closure or happily ever after with someone you thought you would. You don’t always get respected by the same person you respect. You have to understand it hurts but it also

doesn’t define you. 

Monday Vibes...You Are Enough

Never doubt yourself. Never ever ever let anyone make you doubt yourself. You are enough. You are amazing and beautiful and capable. You are the ray of sunshine someone needs. You’re a breathe of

fresh air. You are loved. You are appreciated. You are valued and respected. Don’t change who you are just because someone can’t give you what you need. They are just not your people then. Don’t lose your focus based on what someone else can’t see in you. 💙

Awake Your Soul...Heal Tonight

Before you go to bed I want you to connect within. Close your eyes and count down from

10. Imagine all your stress or worries. Now put them in a drawer. File them away. Relax your mind and connect with your thoughts within. 

Our inner voice will guide us. It may not tell you what you want to hear but you must listen to it. Listen to what it is telling you. Now ask to heal your soul. 

There are times when my body isn’t aligned. That it feels off. I close my eyes and imagine two hands floating over my body. Not touching it but about an inch above it.  Starting from my head and I work it down to my toes. Asking to heal my mind of doubt. My heart of sorrow. I even ask to heal any body pains I have. You can feel the energy flowing over you. It brings a sense of peace. 

We all have the ability to connect within to heal and cleanse our thoughts. You need to practice this to find clarity in your life. Guide you. Bring you peace.

Notice everything is very calming. That when you are calm or surrounded by calmness you bring yourself peace. 

August 18th Make Any Negative Situation A Positive One

Choose better always. Always grow. Always make better decisions. 

This Is How Life Goes...Why Haven’t You Figured This Out Yet

This is how life goes. The sad thing is where communication comes to an end. Where someone doesn’t really know or understand why something happened. As adults it’s important to understand people’s roles in your life. Some come. Some stay. Some leave. Some leave unexpectedly with no explanation. Just like that. You have to come to terms that you may have thought you played a different role than they did. 

I spoke to an old friend. They said they no longer associate with drama that doesn’t involve them. I responded it’s a smart way to live. We all need to do this. 

Life isn’t about drama or chaos. Life is about fun and happiness and making memories and people bringing out the best in you. It’s about finding peace. Treating people how you want to be treated. Respecting companions and friendships. Honoring that people feelings matter. That saying what is wrong is better than not saying anything at all. Not sure why people haven’t figured this out yet. 

Where’s Your Happy Place?

Take yourself to your happy place! Make Your Soul Happy! Regardless of who is part of your journey be sure to enjoy every moment of your life. You’ll start to realize those who are similar to you will enjoy it too. 

Sometimes It’s Best To Unplug...

Take the time you need...We all need time to process stuff and take a time out. I too need a break and need to unplug.

Three Things That Matter In Life

Who Really Should Be In Your Life

Does someone value you behind your back as much as they do to your face? 

You Have To Change Inorder For Life To Get Better

There comes a point where you have to break the cycle. The same arguments the same routine the same tension. You have to break the cycle in order to have change in your life. 

It’s Ok To Be Sad

It’s ok to be sad. Without sadness you would never appreciate happiness. Ride it out. We all have pain at times. Some avoidable some not so much. 

Feel Good Song: One Day

Be Different...Always!

There’s only one of you! We all can be unique in our own way. 

Stay Soft Regardless Of Pain You Feel

I wanted to be mad because when I feel pain or hurt I get mad. But I don’t want to be like that anymore. So stay soft. Stay sweet stay kind. 

Find Clarity & Clear Your Thoughts

I gave this to a friend not sure why we stopped talking. I gave them to help them through a confusing period of their life. It was to help them find guidance and a sense of direction. They said they were once down it brought them luck. 

Healing stones have a magic way of working. I meditate holding them. What stones do you have?

Soul Friends Matter Too

Feel Good Song: Satellite

Always Believe In Yourself

Believe in your strengthens . Stop asking questions. Stop wondering why some people don’t act like you want them to. Stop chasing. See things for what they are. Believe in yourself. 

Be Selective Who You Let In Your Life

Be True To Yourself

Feel Good Song: Babel

Happy Weekend!

Everything Changes & That’s Ok

Are you ever in a situation and think wow so much has changed. 6 months ago. A year ago. Things have changed so much. That you never thought today. This current time. You would be where you are at. 

And it’s good and bad and fun and sad. You have to understand things happen in life. The universe will keep teaching you lessons until you listen and get it right. 

It will direct you to where you’re meant to be and how your life should be. 

Take this time to process. Do know that you can’t fight change. Embrace it. 

Respect Everyone’s Space

Respect someone’s space and love them from afar. 

I knew a situation wasn’t right. I love how connected at time we can be. I tried reaching a friend and didn’t hear back. I then knew I had to respect their space and time. You have to realize people aren’t always ready to talk. People need to experience their journey. Some need to be alone. To process. Honor their space. Just let them know you’re here if they need you. Don’t take it personal. Sometimes things are best left unsaid. 

Feel Good Song: Trouble

Embrace Your Freedom

This is very powerful. Read this again. Break your chains.
