If I hadn't met someone like you

I found this while randomly browsing the Internet via Google.com

I have found that over the years kindness has created love, just as the quote says.
This quote reminds me of my home.
The atmosphere radiates a simplistic world full of complexities.

I bless you, the reader, a cherished holiday season and happy future life. Even if you may be alone for Christmas eve, embrace the magic. I spent last Christmas eve decorating (and re-decorating) the tree with only myself last year. I will do the same in the coming month.

Do not take me for negative however.

I enjoy and cherish Christmas alone... just as some may enjoy being surrounded by friends and family. I survive on the independence that working all season while living alone has on a women. I live to work. I love to live. I love to work. I live to love.

Success

A very important women in my life gave me advice today that is simple and clear.
It is also difficult and challenging to obtain.
She told me,

"Relationships are successful when people 

know how to communicate with one another."

Just one sentence. The meaning of it is profound and applies to everyone.
I believe that this may be one of the life lessons that as humans we must learn to survive.
Not only must we learn this, we must understand it. We must live by it.
It will take time, years upon years to follow and to live by.

Achievement of this goal will better your future relationships.

Achievement of this goal will create peace, happiness and love.

It is very simply. It is very difficult.

I ask of you today to attempt to transform your relationships.

Are you up for the challenge?

The Second Snow Fall

How I love the pale pink sky when the snow first starts to fall.
Don't you agree?
There is something comforting and peaceful about snow falling from sky.

Many times in our lives we may feel inadequate to handle the situations presented to us.
This test defines who we are as humans, and who we are as spirits.
One may start to think...

We are all where we are supposed to be.

You can handle anything. No matter the size; You are capable of it all.
Your dreams are for you to follow.

Seize the opportunity!

Just as the rain waits patiently for 32 degrees.
For dreams to become reality, simply have patience and determination and understanding.
Because just the same the rains waits to turn into beautiful magical snow,
your dreams will turn into your beautiful magical life.

Family Matters

The importance of family. 

We've all heard those four words before I'm sure. Our families have always been there, even in times when we wish that they were not. Through troubles and tribulations they have continued to ride the same wave. At least that is how my families are.

I should start by saying that I have two mothers. 

One is biological.

One is not.

I love both these women with the same amount of heart.

I met my second mother when I was very young and immediately fell in love with her spirit, her soul, her warmth, her grace and her love. She was a gift from above. She still is today. She introduced into my young life an equal part of good and bad. The good was great. She taught me about my inner being, and about the spiritual world. Most of all she taught me about the magic that the Universe offers everyday. The bad was terrible. Not from my second mother, but from her other daughter. I call her my sister and I speak only the truth. She is my sister, although not biological. 

There came a time just before my 20th birthday that I felt I could no longer handle the chaos that my sister was stirring. She fed on the drama and fear of others. No longer could I take it. I decided after months of deliberation that the healthiest thing for me to do was cut off contact and make believe she had never existed. 

Make Believe

I thought it would be that simple. It turns out that I was wrong and that now the healthiest thing for me to do was mend our torn relationship. 

I am currently in the mending stage. I take each day as it comes and I pray for her every night. 

I hope that this post touches the hearts of those who have dealt with, or are dealing with, a troubled family member. They are tough. They can be cruel and evil. They are reaching out for help. 

I choose to love her through this. I know that one day she will survive and fight the inner demons that plague her. 

Love can move mountains. 

Love will survive.

Love will endure.

Love will conquer us all.

We all have the choice. Either listen to our positive light side or not. 

I choose to listen to my Light.

I pray that you all do the same.

Morning Inspiration

Not all stones are meant to keep

Wisdom comes from experience I have learned. Many times in my life I have felt that I was traveling along a path that others were unaware of; Others were walking along side me through the Northern streets yet they did not walk along the same journey. Mistakes teach lessons and without lessons we would not learn. I think that life is a journey paralleling the peak's of all the World's tallest mountains. At 10,000 feet it seems simple. The air is cooler and my mind feels open and free.

The following photo I took in January of 2011. One of the best Winter's of my life. This place of peace was a solitude for my inner child and my soul. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did

I wish love and light on every person that has entered my life. Those who have left, if meant to be, I will see them again. If not meant to be, I respect and cherish the journey and the love that I had at one time. I understand that in order to grow, I must first let go.
