Monday words

Today, I awoke with a song in my head. I’m not a musician, but sometimes songs come into my head without any way for me to get them out, so I just enjoy them in my head. I’m not sure if I have musical talent, but I was successful at birthing a few musicians, so there’s that.

Anyway, I’m motivated today to think positive and to inspire others. To what? Mostly just to have faith and to keep things real.

People aren’t perfect, but I think we seem pretty good at putting pressure on others to be perfect and the only outcome to that is added stress, anxiety, and fatigue. These things lead to anti-production, illness and worse, take away from our potential instead of adding to it.

People will try to tell you what to do, how to think and how to appear so that you could be acceptable to the world. Not sure how to spell it, but I remember my daughter using this sound and it fits “Psh!” That is what I say to all that. (I try!) My husband would say, “F*&$^#@ it!” and to him I say, “Yeah”

To those individuals (like me) who have a harder time saying those things out loud and believe it, I say, “Don’t give up!” “You’re worth it!” And listen to what comes each day. If it’s a song, enjoy it, if it’s a word of encouragement, share it. If it’s silence, then take a deep breath and know that the answer is coming. It’s coming and in the meantime, wait and play your favorite song.  Or better yet, put on the video.

Here’s one of mine:

~Peace friends!

Unstuck

I think just saying that I was stuck unstuck me, or I just woke up with a fresh attitude. It doesn’t matter because I’ve created a somewhat schedule for myself and I’m going to attempt to do my job. That is, be a writer.

Yes, it’s time to pull out the novel and at least work on editing the first chapter. I won’t do it all day long, just a bit. Let’s see how that goes. My orchid bloomed and I’m going to take it as a sign of new birth, new beginnings, the sign of new things to come. Wanna see it? Go here. This is the plants second set of  “children” and I did love those other blooms, but this one’s a beaut!

~Peace friends.
