Sometimes, we want things to work a certain way, and sometimes, we aren’t realistic about the circumstances or even our own self.  For me, I know I want certain things that I have always dreamed of. One of those things is peace of mind, a mind that doesn’t worry, a mind that has a peaceful spirit.  A mood that is certain and content, not dealing with others who are playing games in the mind,…

National Daughter’s Day

What goes around DOES come around !!!! Sometimes it saddens me when I learn the truth; and when I least expect it and don’t quite understand how I have yet found my old self in the same circumstances but in such a different way. Why is it that it has come around again, is it to fulfill certain needs in oneself and/or in the path that comes from another to show me a pattern of…

I also noticed when I choose to remain in a state of anger, it is easier to let go of people that have hurt me…

When your fire sign fights with your air sign~

You can be Too much fire, and when you are, my air instinctively will fan your flames, I know exactly how to increase the blaze!  Oh you think you are big all on your own, I can blow so strong we can watch us turn everything to ashes if we aren’t careful.  How dare you allow soo much, knowing the power you hold that I have given you; and you think you win when you allow all that heat in my…

So, today is Day 9 and I have been so good the last few days, powerful, so strong, knowing I got this. Today this morning is a little different. I think how it feels to be so aware in this presence~ it makes me wonder, “how am I going to do this, how am I going to do it?” …without the cloudiness and the comforting fog, without the mask to hide behind, the control of being in control, letting go…
