here's what i've learned #2

podcasts on itunes are amazing and free :)

in the midst

life is funny. sometimes things are tough. sometimes there's not a care in the world. the lows make the highs pretty incredible. but, in the midst of it all, we are okay. i am okay. you are okay. we will be okay. we ARE okay. right now. cause that's the only place we need to be. is here right now. but even when you are sure you've had a bad day, week, month, year: you are alive. you get this day. and in the midst of THAT you have a collection of things to be grateful for surrounding all that you are. like stars that follow over you and guide you and protect you and twinkle for you. so don't let the other stuff override the stars. they are the good stuff. and you will find yourself much happier paying attention to how bright they glow. look up! look up! look all around. see the love. feel the love. spread the love. i love you. and you are going to be okay.

fear

she is so real and alive. but only we can give life to her. and only we can breathe and let her go. why is it so much easier to allow her to live strong than to be done with her. or maybe letting her go is as easy as meeting her but i haven't mastered that part yet :) we are much stronger then we give ourselves credit for. we can always do anything we want. so how do thinks get in the way. and really get in the way! and we let them! its so rude. i vote no. and they somehow come back. but i am on my way to managing the thinks!!! i'm trying. in with deep breathes. out with fear. out, out, out with fear. you can do it too. LOVE

the sooner you release all that doesnt serve you the sooner you let all the good that can in. let go to let in! LOVE

a little on now.

we keep moving through all the everythings. once we decide we arn't reversing: time, age, memories, what was... we learn to only fully move in the only direction available to us. and once we get enough forward momentum there isn't energy left to give to what was. could have been. should have been. living in all that lets you pass by all the now. like the long beach to jfk jetblue direct flight. you're in california and somehow five hours later you're across the country. but to think what you flew over in those 5 hours. how many peoples lives were going on just underneath you. many people were probably born. someone had a fight. someone made up. lives probably changed in some state. someone was probably moving. someone probably adopted a dog. granted you are not directly involved with all these events, or maybe you are, but things are always going on. in everyones lives. to live in yesterday, to live in last month, last year...allows you to not live in this day, this hour, this second. LOVE
