When all else fails, try humor!

Ok, I have tried everything else! 

I have been in conversation with an editor of a local weekly publication.  He has shown interest in publishing a weekly column about self-awareness in his paper and ask me to send him a couple of “sample” columns. Which I did!  Like, that day!!!   Ok, so I wait and wait and wait to hear something back from him.  I know he is very busy but he must have an inkling about how important this is to me.  Doesn’t he?   Well, DOESN’T HE ?!! Ok, so I also know that he has to present my column to the  rest of the staff for their feedback too!  How long should that take?  Is 5 days waiting enough?  “No,” you say.  “Really,” I say?  Ok, so maybe I’m rushing the process a little BUT THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT! 

I did decide to send him a small reminder today, you know, hey it’s me still:

“Hi ,  Just looking for some feedback.  Are you interested, not interested, happy, sad, don’t know, need more info, want to meet me in person, want to see more work, just needed to know that I have a great sense of humor too?  You tell me.”

 Hope your day is going great!

“It is when we forget all that we are, and live in that place of fear, that we fall short of living to our highest self.  Only, in remembering, and with love, can we manifest all of the greatness already inside us.” Derinda Kempa-Founder, Forgetting 2 Remember, Bridging the gap between fear and love.

 Keep your fingers crossed!  I will keep you updated as soon as he get around to putting me on the top of the list!

Remembering re-found!

Just coming out of an incredible weekend of discovery, awareness, connection and love!  Other than the usual small glitch here and there the weekend was a huge success.  The participants growth and pushing forward exceeded all expections that I could have ever imagined.

A huge thank you to all that made this weekend possible behind the scenes, Mike (my husband and chef), Chelsey (step-daughter and chef), Jill (step-daughter and chef), Derek( blog-designer, photographer, staff helper and chef), Natalia ( my mom, set-up helper), Jessica ( participant, web-designer, photographer), Anna ( photographer, participant and my daughter), Wilson ( participant, tear-down helper and  my son) Jared (participant, tear-down helper and cheese cake lover).

And then the participants, Don, Lydia, Janette, Brooke, Norene, Kyle, Wendy, Georgjean, Anna, Wilson, and Jared.  Without you there would be no weekend, thank you for trusting me, the process, for having the courage to expand,  for sharing, and for helping to bridge the gap between fear and love.  You all are amazing!

Seminars!

Progression is happening!

The kickoff  weekend seminar May 22-24, 2009  is full!   We have scheduled the next weekend seminar for July 24-26, 2009 and are taking reservations now.

Let me tell you about the upcoming seminar;   Forgetting 2 Remember, “Bridging the Gap Between Fear and Love”.

The Friday evening through Sunday afternoon seminar will be held at DYF Camp in Noblesville, IN.   Website:  www.dyfoindiana.org  The seminar will be on-site at the camp for the entire time.  All food and accommodations will be provided during the weekend.

The focus of the seminar will be around letting go of the fear that holds us back in our lives and coming more in balance with the love that we all want.  Re-connecting to remembering all that we had forgotten about ourself and spirit!

This transformation will take place through a series of guided activities facilitated by me, Derinda Kempa, throughout the 2 1/2 day seminar.  It has been fully designed to support self-awareness, balance and well-being. 

What you can expect to take home from this experience?   A fresh awareness of yourself, more confidence, a higher appreciation and understanding of people. Living with less fear and more love in your life.

The cost of the weekend is $379.  A $50 discount will be given to anyone paying and reserving the  July 24-26,2009  weekend seminar before June 12, 2009.

Thank you for being apart of this incredible journey with me!

P.S.  I tried to make sure I covered the who, what, when, where and even the why!  : )

Good Morning! Yep , I’m back!

Good Morning!  As we started this day may we all remember the true essence of who we are, where we come from and our unlimited possiblities of where we can go.

Forgetting 2 Remember is all about that.  Bridging the gap between fear and love. 

We all function from these 2 places in our lives.  We either react from a place of fear or we react from a place of love. 

How many times has something that you feared come to be?  Sometimes we set ourselves up for failure just by the messages that we are feeding to ourselves.  “This will never work”, ” I don’t deserve happiness”, “Why do I always get stuck  with all the crap?”

 Wayne Dyer says it best in his book, The Power of Intention. ” When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”

Today is such a great day to look at something different. From a place of love!  “This will work beautifully for me and the gifts I get from this experience will shape a better tomorrow”, “I deserve all  of  the happiness that I want and today I will seek every opportunity to have it”,  “All that is poured on me today is a gift to make me stronger, more grateful and more  present with each moment of the day”.  Wow! That feels better!
