What If

What if you’re never ready? What if, this is as close to being ready that you’ll ever actually be? What if, the biggest regret you have when you look back on your life, is that you wasted time waiting, waiting to be better, when you were already so very much enough? What if, the last thought you have when your life comes to an end, is that you didn’t do enough living whilst you were alive? My friend, this is it. This is your life, right here, right now. And let me tell you something, somebody somewhere went to sleep last night assuming tomorrow would be a new day. And it wasn’t. Today is the day. Every day is the day. Life waits for no one. Seize the moment, seize the day. Dance like nobody’s watching. Watch the sunset. Eat the delicious cake. Put your bare feet on the cool grass. Be alive. Be ALIVE. Put your hand on your chest and feel that heartbeat pulsing through your body. That’s all you need to be ready. That is truly all the purpose you ever really need. You, my friend, are aliv...

She Learned the Hard Way

She learned at a young age you could not depend on anyone. She learned people will disappoint you and turn their backs on you. She learned to trust herself... The small voice within and let it guide her. She learned the hard way the world can be cruel and fate even crueler. She learned if you want something you go after it yourself… That no one is going to give you anything. She learned love can be masked behind brokenness, wounds, and pain so deep that it can break you too. She learned that a genuine human being will ask nothing of you, take nothing from you, and show you kindness and mercy. She learned through much heartache that if a man truly loves you he'll treat you like his queen. She learned to love herself back to whole and found her voice again in a world that was dead set on silencing her… Keeping her down and invisible. She learned her song and sang it with grace.  

New Way of Being

he's the first man that brings rest to your heart and a smile to your face but it's hard for you to allow this new way of being after living with someone for so long that made you feel unloved funny how you almost have to reteach yourself how to accept love  from another human being  

The Teachings of the Teepee

The Cree people use 15 poles to make the structure of the tipi. For every pole in that tipi, there is a teaching. So there are 15 teachings that hold up the tipi. Other Nations use 16 poles, and maybe more or less. The tipi does not have to face east all the time; it can rotate in any direction. It is only the first time that it is requested that the tipi face east, because of the opening ceremony. To start, we take three poles and bind them together to make a tripod. Each pole also has a very specific meaning. These three together fortify the structure. They are obedience, respect and humility. Notice the poles, the way they stand. If they stood straight up and down, they couldn’t support a tipi. But balanced properly together, they are able to reinforce each other. There’s a teaching in that. In order to make a family, you need three: the two parents and the child, to make that balance. The tops of the poles have many teachings. Each one points in a different direction. We are like t...

Time of No Time

  "The Mayan people call this the “Time of No Time.” From here on, we’re on Earth time. Mother Earth is shaking to her core. It’s a time of madness, disconnection, and hyper-individualism. It’s also a time when new energies are coming into the world, when people are growing a new skin. The Mayan vision says that we in the West will find safe harbor only if we can journey past a wall of mirrors. The mirrors will surely drive us mad—unless we have a strong heart. Some mirrors delude us with an infinity of reflections of our vanity and shadows. Others paralyze us with our terror and rage, feeding an empire that manufactures our fear into resignation. But the empire has no roots and it’s toppling all around us. In this time everyone is called to take a stand. Everyone is called to be a leader. To get beyond the wall of mirrors, the final challenge is to pass through a tiny door. To do this, we must make ourselves very, very small. To be very humble. Then we must burrow down into the E...

She Builds Herself Brick by Brick

  “The problem when you are a strong, capable, self-confident person, is that more often than not, people think that you don't really need things like comfort, reassurance, loyalty and guidance. People are more likely to look at you and say, "She doesn't need this", "She doesn't need that", "She's already all of this and all of that". But then the truth is that most probably, you are a strong, capable, self-confident person because you built yourself brick-by-brick into that person; because you HAD to BECOME that person; because you had determination enough to make yourself into the image that you knew you needed to become. At the heart of many strong, confident people, is a heart most longing of the things that most others simply take for granted.” ~C. JoyBell C.
