The other day, I decided to celebrate myself by purchasing some flowers and concocting a small love note to myself. The intention behind this act of self-love was to acknowledge me for all of the hard work I have done over the past several months. As I perused the flower section, I picked out a small bouquet of … Continue reading »

Sunshine
Ever since I arrived in the world of being a grown up, I have felt a lot of pressure to find a label for myself. I’ve heard lots of things about who I should be and labels that others thought would suit me. Though everyone’s suggestions for the most part came from a place of love, … Continue reading »
Trust
On New Years Eve, I attended a burning bowl ceremony. The intention behind this event was to release the past by way of writing down events in 2011 that maybe we aren’t so proud of or happy with and burn the energy of the “unpleasantness” in a big bowl. After doing that, we were led … Continue reading »
Forgiveness
I’ve been thinking a lot about forgiveness lately. As you may or may not know, I’ve been looking for ways to heal past memories and ultimately forgive my mother. However the process is made more difficult because she has refused over and over again throughout the years to admit that there was anything unhealthy about … Continue reading »
Is all that I am seeking really seeking me too?
I am currently sitting in front of a regular computer (the battery on my laptop recently went kapoot) with a corded phone (yes, CORDED- I no longer desire to own a phone) resting quite uncomfortably between my left ear and my left shoulder. I have been on hold for the past 45 minutes or so and … Continue reading »
Healing on the Hands of Time
Very recently, I set an intention to stick to a few healing activities for one month. I have created a calendar with the same events written on each day. ’AM Meditation, Judge my neighbor worksheet, Free form writing and PM Meditation.’ Setting an intention like this and sticking to it is sort of a big deal … Continue reading »
Sometimes the end really is just the beginning.
If you’ve kept up with my blog, you would know that my last few weeks in Minnesota were some pretty frustrating times which lead to my last few days in Minnesota that turned into a grand finale to not only a very warped experience- but also to a drama that has been keeping a stranglehold on … Continue reading »
I see my path, but I don’t know where it leads. Not knowing where I am going is what inspires me to travel it. ~ Rosalia De Castro
This was my journal entry this morning. I kind of liked it… so now I am sharing. Have a sparkle filled day! My prayer for you dear traveler is to let go of all preconceived notions of who you were, who you should be and who you will be. My greatest wish for you … Continue reading »
The “L” Word.
A few months ago when I was going through a particularly uncomfortable growth spurt, a friend reached out to me in an attempt to help. I wasn’t expecting the genuine assistance and it took me by painful surprise. You see, he left a long message on my phone saying something along the lines of, “You … Continue reading »
The person I used to know as me.
I bought my plane ticket to Minnesota this morning. Wow. I’m really doing this. I’m so excited…but filled with nostalgia and a deep sense of gratitude for every person and situation which has colored my world for the last several years. If someone told the person I used to know as me that I would … Continue reading »
