HOW TO BECOME MORE PRESENT IN THE PRESENT

HOW TO BECOME MORE PRESENT IN THE PRESENT

1. Believe: The most important thing in your life is what is happening right now. 'Right now' includes what is inside you as well as what is outside.

2. Know: God manifests within human experience most readily when the undertow of past memories, thoughts, feelings, and worries are left behind and an empty space is created. The empty space welcomes the Divine. 

3. Cultivate simplicity. Being proud to be busy or stressed as a sign of success does not allow for the development of an inner life that flourishes in quiet and in peace.

4. Let go of any belief you carry that you are not responsible if you give time to yourself, time to be alone, time to make contact with the Divine. Your responsibilities to Life include bringing your whole self to it. This is not possible without a deep connection with your own being.

5. Rest. Find a balance between activity and non-activity. Especially now that increased spiritual light is changing your body in ways that you may not be aware of,
rest is needed to reveal the new possiblities that are developing within you.

6. Allow love to be more important than it has been. The transformation of an entire planet is taking place around and because of the vibration of love. Let this be your primary focus.

7. Express gratitude on a daily basis. Gratitude allows you to interact more deeply with life. You can be grateful for each day, and especially for each interaction with others. Each time you show up, a flower opens in God's heart.

Sticks And Stones May Break My Bones, But Words That Don't Pertain To Me Have No Meaning!!!!

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me! I remember hearing those words as a young girl and saying, are you kidding me. Words hurt and some words hurt so bad that you feel like you just got the wind knocked out of you. But it wasn't until recently that I learned that words have NO POWER. We give them power by breathing life into them. How you ask, let me explain.

I remember getting into arguments with my brother when I was younger because he called me a name. My mom would come busting in our room asking what's going on and I would say something silly like, Corey called me a name and her question to me was, are you the name he called you and I would sit there with the stupid face and say “NO” and her response to me would be, so why did you respond or why does it bother you. Well you know what Keeper's. I gave his words life and even as an adult I use to do the same thing. Someone would say something about me and what would I do “RESPOND”. There I go giving words life again.

But there is an even more damaging side to giving words life and it's called believing them. There are millions of wounded people walking around, because they choose to give other peoples words life and they do this by #1. breathing life into them by acknowledging their words and #2. holding onto them so long that they began to believe them. It's extremely hard to defeat something you believe in or something you have been carrying around for so long. So I ask you to please stop giving life to words that you know are used to hurt you.. If the words don't pertain to you, leave them alone.

P.S. I know my brother read all my blogs so I must admit when we were younger I called him a couple of names too lol... Love YOU

Mama Never Said There Would Be Days Like This!!!

As I hang up the phone from a counseling session with one of my men-tees I realized that there are so many things that "MAMA NEVER TOLD US" and I guess she never told us because she felt it wasn't her place or maybe she was never told herself.  Or maybe there are just somethings we are meant to learn on our own. So tonight I decided to write down a couple of things "Mama Never Shared".

1) Men will be men and if you run into one that need tweaking just to fit into your standards keep it moving. It's not your job to change a man or try to make him better. 
2) If you allow a man to walk all over you, he will. A person will only do what you allow them too.
3) If you forgive someone, forgive them from the bottom of your heart and leave it in the past. Don't hold on to old hurt to hold it over a person's head.
4) Just because your a Christian doesn't mean you have to be stuffy in your relationship. It's OK to dance, smile, be a woman and enjoy the company of your mate, because we seem to forget that all relationships need to be refueled every now and then. It's OK to keep it exciting.
5) Don't tell everything that goes on in your relationship, because every relationship has problems and everything is not for everyone to know. If you need to talk to someone, seek the advice of a pastor, counselor or mentor. 
6) If a man hit you once 9 times out of 10 he will do it again.
7) You have to be a realist when it comes to your in-laws. Although, they may love you with all their heart and soul they are still his family. So enjoy the love while your in the relationship and if the relationship should end, don't be upset or surprised that they love the next person as much as they loved you. It's only fair.
8) MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU WANT AND STAND FOR BEFORE ENTERING ANY RELATIONSHIP. IT WILL HELP YOU AVOID A LOT OF HEARTACHE.

If you can think of a couple of other things Mama never said, don't be afraid to add it..

Are You Really Comfortable In Your Comfort Zone Or Are You Just Playing It Safe???

I really don't know why they call it "THE COMFORT ZONE", because although, we are comfortable, we are still uncomfortable. I know! I know! Your question to me is how can that be and my answer to you is "EASY". We all have held a position that we didn't like, but we stayed because it was quote unquote safe, we didn't have to worry about where our next paycheck would come from, we didn't have to worry about getting to know new people and we didn't have to worry about starting over, but that didn't mean we were comfortable. Sometimes, we were down right miserable. So the reality of the situation is we were never truly comfortable within the "Comfort Zone". We just felt safe!!!

Did you know that sometimes we block our blessing by playing it safe. Sometimes we hold on just a little to long, while God is telling you to let it go. Sometimes God is saying step out on faith and your saying "I'm waiting for God to give me a sign", but he did. It just wasn't the sign you wanted to see, so what do you do. Most of us sit back in the cut while others proceed to grow and we remain the same, same old drama and same old hardships. God isn't your personal Genie and he definitely don't work for you. He work with YOU.

Let me take it one step further "Feeling safe in an unsafe environment can kill you". People are dying slow deaths every day. People are dying from heart disease due to living and working in stressful environments. Women are rapidly aging, having strokes and remaining in a state of depression, because they are afraid to step out on there own. Is it really that serious Keepers!!  Are you really that afraid that you are willing to pay with your life. I guess (sometimes) you can say that "Playing It Safe" isn't  "SAFE" at all..

One-step at a time.

Learn to love yourself enough so that when someone enters your life that treats you negatively,you can stand up for yourself and have the strength to let them go. You can learn that it is okay to say no to anyone who is not willing to treat you with the love and respect you not only want, but also deserve. Have the courage to walk away from anything that does not serve you well. Search for your highest good.

You may be thinking right now, how do I go about this when I do not have the things that would make me content? What is in your world externally is nothing more than a mirror of what is going on internally. So to change the external vision of what your world appears to be, go within and change it there, then the outward vision will change to mirror the inward feelings.

Understand that every new path has a beginning and a first step. To pursue anything new, all you have to do is to take one-step at a time. And that is the step before you. If we learn to feel and believe that we have all that we desire and want in life and accept what has been granted to us, more will come.

It is all about appreciation and gratitude. If you could learn to appreciate and have gratitude by focusing on what is good in your life, more goodness will flow to you. If we complain that we do not have those things, then that is where our focus is and that is what we will continue to attract to us. If we think and imagine having the life we desire, and act and feel as we have it within, it is sure to appear before us.

When negative events occur in your life, if you look for the silver lining in the dark rain cloud, you will learn that good is always flowing toward you, if you have but the eyes to see it. And when you embrace the good that comes from that stormy rain cloud, you are transforming the energy of what you previously deemed as something negative into some positive. When you sing this new song, more “good” things can flow to you.
