The world needs you.   

You might not realize it, but the world needs good people who know the difference between "right" and '"wrong", who are willing to stand up and be the light that guides people out of darkness. 

Does that sound like big shoes to fill?  Maybe you don't feel worthy to lead. You just might be underestimating your abilities or your knowledge. 

We've mistakenly look to celebrities to lead, but now we see that those celebrities were puppets to guide us to the latest trends, beliefs and hidden agendas. 

We need to keep life simple.  We need to know right from wrong and have the courage to do the right things.   

If you are one of those people, then world needs YOU!!! 

Don't be afraid to let your light shine brightly. 

"An Honest Look  At REALITY"

Sometimes holiday gatherings can be challenging.  When they are, we need to take an honest look at what's going on.

Maybe you find that others don't have the same beliefs or opinions that you do.                    NEWSFLASH: They aren't suppose to!!!

Think about your Thanksgiving table, if every dish was seasoned the exact same way, the meal would be dull and boring.  But as it is, some dishes are delightful to your personal taste, while others you can take or leave....HOWEVER all the dishes bring value to the meal.

So it is with the people around the table.  Each person brings an unique flavor to the gathering. Since we have no control over others, we have only our-self to look at.  Are we bringing something that blends with the occasion, or something sour and off putting?

This is my personal way to prepare myself for theses...

FEAR (False Evidence Appearing Real)

Real or Not, fear can leave you with the feeling of being "trapped".  It can leave you feeling hopelessness, which can be quite paralyzing.

With just a change of your focus, you'll be able to regain your strength in a short period of time.

First, understand that "Yesterday's History" and "Tomorrow's a Mystery".  All your power is in the here and now!

Each day, make sure you take care of your spiritual needs, and no, I'm not talking about religion.  I'm talking about the spirit inside of you.  That place that offers extreme joy and happiness, the place where inspiration comes from.

Walk outside in nature, meditate, sing a happy song, laugh, smile, run.  Allow yourself to express itself.  Do things that brings you joy AT LEAST once a day...and hopefully throughout the day.

By doing this everyday, your days will be happier because you're bringing happiness in daily.  When you're happy, your soul is free to express,...

Setbacks are only temporary.  Many times, growth is attainable only through those temporary setbacks.  As it affords us time to pause and ponder what happened; think through a respectful solution; and put together a well thought-out plan to move forward.

Hope is the eternal flame that burns within each of us.

Don't forget the power of the positivity you bring to this world!!  Your talents or gifts might be different or unconventional, but it's precisely the uniqueness that is entrusted to you, to bring forth into this crazy world at this time.

Embrace your purpose.

The world is inviting you to step out of your comfort zone and into a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.  This is about the very essence of who you are; the energy you bring to every moment.

You are part of the community for change!

Sometimes life hurts!

Lessons are here for us to learn and grow from. We need to find our own way in life.  Sometimes we rely on other people's thoughts, discernment, or beliefs, more than we value our own.

There's nothing wrong with listening to others thoughts and beliefs.  But Discernment, that job is ours!

We all came to this planet for a powerful purpose, and it's different for each person.  If we gather other people's opinions and try to "fuse" them into our life, it may make things "confusing" for what WE came to do!

Most of us discover our life's purpose through our personal experiences.  We need these experiences to teach us, and help us to develop.  That's why it's important to experience, explore, and discern what's real for us.  So we can share our authentic self with the world.

These disappointments not only help expand us and our purpose...they are also contributing to the expansion of the world.

Let's Grow Together!

When you watch this video, notice how it affects the people around her.  Notice how it affects you, at a soul level.

This reaches us at the core of our being.  This core area is where our power comes from....and it is at the "NOW" moment.  And then this NOW moment.  All of our power is in each "Now Moment".

We are created will all kinds of abilities we don't use.  Find your power.  Own your power, and become Free!

Definition of "Courage" from Webster's Unabridged Dictionary:

   "The quality of mind or spirit that enables a person to face difficulty, danger, pain, etc., without fear, bravery."

We just finished celebrating 247 years of Independence from the Crown Monarchy.  Imagine the courage our forefathers had to have to stand up against the military might of the Royal Navy and the many battleships in the harbor.

Where has this courage gone?  These men fought, some died, and others wrote our Constitution which is the highest law in the land.  How many have read the Constitution?  It’s not that big of a text….AND it defines all of the rights that are held by the People of this Country.  It also defines a small parameter which our voted official can operate within.  Anything outside of that given parameter is Unconstitutional.

What happens when the government operates outside of those parameters?  That’s what the...

Didn't our parents try to teach us this?  I'm sure I'm not the only one whose parents said, “If your friends jumped of a bridge, does that mean you have to?"

It's important for us to think for ourselves.  We are all here for a different part to play in life, so does it make sense for everyone to think the same?  Do the same thing?  Have the same opinion?

NO!  Nothing new would be created if we did!

You are expanding and growing as a person.  You're creating a new tomorrow, for you, your family, and your community.

Enjoy the freedom of learning from your experiences, the good experiences and the bad ones.  For me, I've learned more from the experiences that didn't go as planned. 

Enjoy the freedom of being Perfectly You!
