If your going through hell........

Good Morning!!!!
 
Welcome to the New Moon, it makes us a little off balance and emotional.
 
Truth is, it makes us look at our life and consider new ways to do things.
 
Everyone makes fun of country music, but sometimes it just speaks to ya...
 
In honor of the emotional new moon today, I think we can all relate to this thought of the day!!!
 
This is a new country song, if you want to hear it, go to the web address below.

Here is the thought for the day!!!
 
Well you know those times
When you feel like there's a sign there on your back
Say's I don't mind if ya kick me
Seems like everybody has
Things go from bad to worse
You'd think they can't get worse than that
And then they do

You still walk the straight and narrow
And you don't know where you are
Use the needle of your compass
To sew up your broken heart
Ask directions from a genie
In a bottle of Jim Beam
And she lies to You
That's when you learn the truth

If you're going through hell
Keep on going, Don't slow down
If you're scared, don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there

Well I been deep down in that darkness
I been down to my last match
Felt a hundered different demons
Breathing fire down my back
And I knew that if I stumbled
I'd fall right into the trap that they were laying,
Yeah

But the good news
Is there's angels everywhere out on the street
Holding out a hand to pull you back upon your feet
The one's that you been dragging for so long
You're on your knees
You might as well be free
Guess what I'm saying
If you're going through hell
Keep on going, Don't slow down
If you're scared, don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, If you're going through hell
Keep on moving, Face that fire
Walk right through it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there


Namaste,

ignorance is bliss

Good Morning,
Welcome back from a glorious long weekend!!
 
There is an old saying that says " Ignorance is bliss."
 
It was that way when I opened my first business.
Many asked me "What do you know about running a business?", my only reply was, nothing really. You walk through the fear, because none of it seems like a big deal, compared to bodily injury or death..lol
 
Our ignorance can sometimes be the fuel for the dream.
 
But beginning again is like dating after divorce.
 
We know the pitfalls, the things that can go wrong, and that keeps us from beginning...
 
This journey is but a dream, it is whatever we want it to be.
Our prayer to the universe today.
Give me the insight to the dream, but ignorance to the fear....
 
Here is the thought for the day
 
"It's all right to have butterflies in your stomach.
Just get them to fly in formation -

Lost in Sears....

The Unknown.........
 
Sounds like a scary place... but when we don't know what to do, or where to go, rather than running willy nilly, planning, trying, scheming, doing;
 
It may be time to be still...because the answers lie in the stillness...
 
A long time ago, my Mom took us to Sears, ( hot nuts and hot dogs...yummy...) and we would go to the toy area while she shopped... Well, being who I was, I got bored and went looking for her....panic ensued, and meanwhile she went to the toy section, and I wasn't there....
We spent what seemed to be forever looking for each other. 
 
I was in a panic...then I was running, in all directions, criss-crossing where I had already been out of fear.. Well when we finally saw each other she said.....
 
If you are ever lost, just stop and stay where you are and I will find you......
 
Guidance from our Elders, Creator Guides and Angels come in the same way....
 
In the silence, the stillness....
 
When you are lost, and in a panic, stop... be still and allow yourself to be found, and listen for the guidance to give you direction...
 
Here is the thought for the day
 
There is something greater and purer than what the mouth utters.
Silence illuminates our souls, whispers to our hearts, and brings them together.
Silence separates us from ourselves,
makes us sail the firmament of spirit,
and brings us closer to Heaven;
it makes us feel that bodies are no more than prisons
and that this world is only a place of exile.

GROW

Good Morning!
Now that we are finally having a break in the weather hopefully we can get out in the Sun.
 
Spring is a time to renew ourselves, look at what isn't working and make the changes necessary to attract love and peace to our lives.
 
Spring is about growth, trying new things, leaving our "caves" of hibernation and explore our world.
Going within to plan and dream is a vital part of living.
 
Being aware of the messages that Our loved ones and the Universe are sharing, thoughts of love, hope and peace.
 
What dreams have we had in winter that need to be planted and cultivated now that it's spring?
 
Now is the time, the ground is fertile and ready to accept the seeds, it is up to you to get your hands dirty.
 
Once your garden blooms it will be magnificent.
 
 
 
Here is the thought for the day!!
 
Life is change.
Growth is optional.
Choose wisely.

Dare

Good Morning TGIF!!!
 
We are here for a reason...a purpose.....
 
So much of the time we are paralyzed by the fear, the unknown, the risk, the judgment, that we do not begin.
 
We sit and think, and plan, and think some more..
 
But meanwhile, we haven't moved an inch.
 
There is a grand adventure waiting for you.
 
Dare to Dream...
Dare to be Authentic.....
Dare to be Different......
Dare to be Happy...
Dare to be Joyful.....
Dare to be Peaceful....
 
Dare to be your biggest fear....Walk through it, and if you can't...ask for help...
 
 
Here is the thought for the day!!!

I can see clearly now....

Good Monday to all!!
 
The rains have come to wash away the pollen, and clean our world.
 
Let's take some time, if you have a rainy day there, and see it as washing your internal world clean.
 
LET IT FLOW... away..... gone from our life...... to emerge renewed, clean and fresh.
This means old thoughts, ideas, behavior, people..
 
Whatever is clogging your "gutters" and don't forget to clean those windows...
We need to see where we're going!!!
 

Thought for the day
I can see Clearly now
 
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

I think I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I’ve been prayin?for
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

Look all around, there’s nothin' but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin' but blue skies

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

Full Moon Risin'

Good Morning!!!

Well, in this full moon, lets bring it on out...

Now is the time to set new things in motion.

 

Namaste!

Marianne

Here is the thought for the day!!

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcomings.

Who knows the great devotion, who spends himself in a worth cause, who at best knows in the end the high achievement of triumph and who at worst, if he fails while daring greatly, knows his place shall never be with those timid and cold souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Author: Theodore Roosevelt

Judge and Jury

Good Morning,
 
Inside all of us is the critic, the judge.
 
In order to silence the critical voice, it is necessary to take away the power.
 
Speaking aloud our secrets, guilt and fears takes away the power.
 
Even if the person we are speaking it aloud to is ourselves.
 
Once we can really examine these things in the light, they becomes just things that need to be thrown away.
No longer important...
Just part of the story.....
 
By liberating ourselves through love and honesty, we silence the internal judge and then we cannot be harmed by the judgement of others.
 
Remember that all of our experiences are lessons in disguise,
filling another chapter in the book of Me.
 
Here is the thought for the day
 
Doubt yourself and you doubt everything you see.
Judge yourself and you see judges everywhere.
But if you listen to the sound of your own voice,
you can rise above doubt and judgment.
And you can see forever.
