A little reflection, nostalgia and forward movement: Jan 1, 2015 Ok, yes...I know...a little long..a diary note...but just felt I should share. 2014 was an incredible year. It was a year of personal growth and an opportunity to self reflect and develop stronger awareness of myself and the environment around me. When I look back to six years ago, and the attack on my immune system which kept me bed ridden for nearly a year, I am so thankful for every day I am alive and well. It was only the love of my dear family, closest friends & angels I met along my path, that gave me a reason to get up and try to live again. One has no idea what they have until its gone. When my health deteriorated, I looked around and realized that I needed to start living in the moment and that things I placed value in had little to no meaning. The materialistic nature I had developed during my 20s....quickly had no meaning....as the things could not be enjoyed without the blessing and return of my health. I realized I had attracted and or allowed a lot of negativity to exist as a result of the negativity within. Sometimes one has to fall flat on their face in order to see themselves for what they truly are. In doing so, I found my purpose and in that purpose was the importance of finding the love within myself and sharing it with whoever crossed my path. The memories of being a great daughter, a humble servant and a loyal friend to all those that came into my life and crossed my path became of the highest priority. In the knowingness of being, I came to understanding that the environment was a direct reflection of the attitude within me. In this knowingness, I also humbly acknowledge my imperfection and in that imperfection I began to understand and appreciate the idiosyncrasies that crossed my path. Through sheer grace and blessings, 2014 gave me the opportunity to live again...to travel...to India...to Turkey...& to meet so many beautiful, peaceful and spiritual people. 2014 gave me the opportunity to share myself openly and freely without limitations to family and friends. I am thankful that my health and the angels protecting me gave me that opportunity....that opportunity to live again...to adventure....to open my mind to the endless possibilities of the love. I attained unconditional love for self and thereby unconditional love for others. In reflection, so in the moment on this day....January 1, 2015. Today, we can look upon our blessings with the utmost gratitude...reflect upon connections and share your love with no regret of whatever may unfold. For it is the love and surrender that really moves mountains and the faith that keeps it alive. Again, many blessings in this year and always.....and in your imperfection find perfection....as mirrored reflections. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone. **Audrey Hepburn** Love is not what others feel about you, it is what love you share with others. **Swavin Joysury** Sometimes your only available transportation is a leap of faith. **Margaret Shepard**
