Work in progress….

As a new business there is much to do and changes to be made or improved along the way.  That has been a very exciting  process to be apart of and seeing the evolution take place.

Not only with business but with everyone and everything, we are a work in progress.  It is   beautiful when we can spend all our life in a place of learning and growing.  Each stage seems to bring with it new challenges but also new blessings. And we have the  wonderful opportunity to grab those blessings and run! 

May we all take a moment today to count our blessing of being a work in progress and embrace the dance!

On-going transformation

We think that we have to “get it” the first time and we easily become frustrated when we keep experiencing the same thoughts, relationships, jobs, people, etc.

Transformation is an act, process or instance of transforming or being transformed.  For most of us it is a process.  A life long process of changing and growing. 

Every once in awhile there will be that one instance so profound that the transformation from it will last the rest of your life.  But most are less obvious and easy to miss if we are not paying attention.

What did you do today differently than you did last year, last week, even yesterday?  Did you change a thought?  Did you react to disappointment or loss from a different awareness?  Did you love more deeply today for humanity?  Did you dance when you use to sit it out? 

 Transformation!  Look for it in your life and be grateful for your growth and awareness no matter how small.  Acknowledge in yourself the ability to continue changing the conditions of yourself.

What five things can you find to acknowledge transformation in your life?

Did I say DANCE!

” Two steps forward, one step back.  Imagine, just for a moment, that our purpose isn’t just to get to heaven but to learn how to dance.”

Forgetting 2 remember, two steps forward, one step back, ebb and flow, up and down, how ever you say it it is all the same.  It is the DANCE!

How many of you are wall flowers, always watching and never participating?  Or waiting  until you are “relaxed” enough?  Or waiting until someone ask you?

What if our purpose is to dance and keep on dancing even when the step back throws your rhythm off-beat?   

My experience has been, if you just keep moving your feet you will find the beat again and in the mean time it sure makes life a lot more fun.  There is a lot to be said about “dancing to your own drummer.”

So given the chance to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance! – LeAnn Womack

Blessed are the flexible

I was told this quote many years ago: “Blessed are the flexible for they shou not break”.

Change is hard!  Sometimes it just seems easier to just stay the course.  We become stuck in our ways, ideas, thoughts and routine.  Sometimes  we even stay in that place even when we are not happy because the fear of change is too overwhelming to contemplate.

But at what cost?  The cost of ourselves, our families and sometime even our health!  What would happen if we showed up with more flexibility?  I mean REALLY what is going to happen?

Give flexibility a try today.  When you meet a change in the face today see what happens when you meet it with an open mind! 

 May the only thing that has you breaking today be a dance!

Laugh, dance and love!

I just received the t-shirts that I ordered from  

ellen.warnerbros.com 

One is dark blue and says: Laugh, Dance, Change.  The other one is red

and says: Laugh, Dance, Love. 

Getting the shirts reminded me of a message that I received earlier

 this week from www.tut.com :

People, when given the chance, smile, skip and dance.  They create, play
and laugh.  They share, care and love.  And the ones who don’t,  haven’t yet realize that chances are something you give yourself.

Thank you for being apart of this week with me!  Give yourself a great weekend!
