Happy Wednesday

There are days in your life where you just shout: “What the F@ck!”



Case in point:



1. I have been taking high doses of Vitamin C to boost my immune system to deal with the high levels of work stress and viola! I have one of these moments this morning – I seriously thought that the whole first floor could hear me! WTF! I’m supposed to be healthier from taking all this freaking Vitamin C right?!

2. I put on a pair of work pants this morning and they were a little big. Now, I’m not complaining that they were a little loose, but damn! I saw a picture of my ass reflected in the window at work and ---really!? My ass looks like that? When the f@ck did that happen?! It HAS to be the pants, because in my mind I still have the ass of my 18 year-old self. Mmmhuh!



3. You all know I started training for a marathon. Then I stopped. Then I started again. Then I stopped again. I have NOOOOOOOOO excuse this time. The girls are at tennis school and Mr. Strong takes Doodlebug to daycare. I. Have. No. Excuse. WTF is up with my laziness?! Someone should kick me in the nuts – I don’t have any, but the intention would be the same.



So there you go – I’m not complaining – I’m just over here scratching my head wondering where my motivation and inspiration are vacationing - and pissed off those fuckers went without me. On the bright side, I probably lost 5lbs with case #1. I realized my reality and true reality might not be the same in case #2, but that I’m okay with that. And to top everything off I burned a few extra calories typing case #3.

Happy Wednesday everyone!






Smile and the world smile's with you...

Pay it forward.

Where do I begin today? I sure have missed you guys! I’m happy to see that you keep coming back day after day even though I have consistently deserted my writing and let you down like a bad porno movie.


~~~Cue in the UPS man and the corny joke about “delivering his package”~~~~

Sorry, I digress…

I am not here today to deliver you a “package” – mainly because I don’t have one – but I do want to deliver a message.

You have all witnessed me talk or write about the Law of Attraction, so today will be no different.

Sometimes in life we get caught up with all the negativity surrounding us and we focus on who to blame and reasons why we can’t break free from the downward spiral of helplessness. Well, let me tell you why – because you won’t take responsibility of the fact that NO ONE can determine your happiness but YOU! Because NO ONE can make you feel anything less than what YOU allow them to. We tell ourselves that we don’t deserve better because of one reason or another, but today I am telling you to WAKE UP!

To all the people that complain of sickness, and being tired and having unexplained ailments, the Law of Attraction tells us that as long as we are focusing on sickness, being tired and having unexplained ailments, EVERY ONE of them will continue to rule your life.

To all the people that complain about how their partner’s treat them like crap or how everyone around them always “does them wrong”, the Law of Attraction tells us that as long as you keep thinking this way the people around you will continue to feed your complaints.

To all the people that express worry and focus on the lack of having or getting stuff in their life, the Law of Attraction tells us that as long as we continue to concentrate on all that we do not have, we will continue to NOT HAVE.

The solution? Is to change your thoughts 180 degrees and start taking responsibility for everything that is good or bad in your life.

Instead of permeating sickness, depression or tiredness, start focusing on your health and giving thanks for the ability to change your circumstances immediately.

Instead of bitching about your partner or family, how about you celebrate the good and begin to appreciate their contributions – because no one is perfect.

Instead of focusing on lack, how about you rejoice in the fact that you have an ABUNDANCE of things to be grateful for right in front of you – and that there are millions of people in this world that would never take for granted the means you have been afforded.

I’ve written before that life is like a domino effect – negativity attracts more negativity and positivity attracts more positivity.

Don’t drown in or entertain someone else’s negativity because it only brings negativity to you. Don’t talk about people and don’t judge people – because this too will be returned to you.

Instead, focus on your gratitude and being thankful for all the wonderful things you have in your life.

Because WHEN YOU DO…you attract more things to be grateful for and you will find that all your dreams seem to manifest magically.

It will be hard to stay focused on positivity and grateful at all times - I can promise you that you will look like you have multiple personalities and bi-polar disorder, but as long as you are consciously trying to remind yourself to be the best you – you will immediately see the wonderful changes in your life.

When you get your mind and perception in order – the outside world will follow.

No need to thank me today, just pay it forward.

Your Journey

I know most people are posting July 4th - Independence Day events and plans, but I am venturing in a different direction today.

I do want everyone to have a great holiday and drink many Mojitos for me please! And of course I will do the same for you! (wink, wink)

Today I wanted to share with you a poem by Constatine Cavafy named Ithaca:

Ithaca

When you set out on your journey to Ithaca,

pray that the road is long,

full of adventure, full of knowledge.

The Lestrygonians and the Cyclops,

the angry Poseidon — do not fear them:

You will never find such as these on your path,

if your thoughts remain lofty, if a fine

emotion touches your spirit and your body.

The Lestrygonians and the Cyclops,

the fierce Poseidon you will never encounter,

if you do not carry them within your soul,

if your soul does not set them up before you.

Pray that the road is long.

That the summer mornings are many, when,

with such pleasure, with such joy

you will enter ports seen for the first time;

stop at Phoenician markets,

and purchase fine merchandise,

mother-of-pearl and coral, amber and ebony,

and sensual perfumes of all kinds,

as many sensual perfumes as you can;

visit many Egyptian cities,

to learn and learn from scholars.

Always keep Ithaca in your mind.

To arrive there is your ultimate goal.

But do not hurry the voyage at all.

It is better to let it last for many years;

and to anchor at the island when you are old,

rich with all you have gained on the way,

not expecting that Ithaca will offer you riches.

Ithaca has given you the beautiful voyage.

Without her you would have never set out on the road.

She has nothing more to give you.

And if you find her poor, Ithaca has not deceived you.

Wise as you have become, with so much experience,

you must already have understood what Ithaca means.

I wanted to share this today to inspire you to look around and enjoy life right now - the 4th of July holiday tomorrow - and the days to come. Enjoy the little things along with the big! Take in every moment - NONE of us are perfect, but we have been given perfect lives to live and to journey to the depths of our innermost dreams - so pray that the road is indeed long.

Today I ask you to find your Ithaca - open your eyes - and enjoy your journey.

May you be blessed beyond your wildest imagination.
