Celebrate

Do you ever celebrate you? And I'm not talking when you do something great and make yourself proud but even when you're at your lowest? Celebration is not hard. You need to make it a habit and not just on certain occasions.

Celebrate God, celebrate every waking moment you have. Make your life the best not for others but for yourself. Imagine your life was a movie and when it's time to play it back, what do you want others to see in your life movie?

I know it's not easy to do and I'm not saying I've even gotten it right. In fact I'm such a work in progress I should walk around with a sign. But it excites me to celebrate because God has given me talent, beauty and such amazing uniqueness that celebration should always be oozing out of me!

The dictionary defines celebration as honouring or praising publicly! No matter what anyone says, your life should be a celebration. So you must be wondering, how do you celebrate yourself, life? The key is LOVE. Love is not just a word. It is a doing word. Love is physical action. You cannot say you love yourself/life and not do anything about it. That's not love. That's just an empty word.

Celebration/praise/gratitude is born from love. Love is action. Happiness is born from celebration. An amazing life is born from total and complete happiness. Happiness that's so infectious, people want to be around you just so that they can have you rub off on them.

Celebrate your life, you only have one. Celebrate the people that have been placed in your life because whether you choose to accept it or not, there's a reason why they are there in the first place. There's something profoundly inspiring about your story to someone. You went through something so that someone could find the courage to face their own situation. Nothing is a mistake about what you're going through or have been through.

Maybe it's time to discover what life can be like with so much love in it, you can't help but overflow. This world has become so full of negative feelings, that maybe it's time for your light to shine. This dark place needs some light and that can only happen if you find that very light in yourself and embrace it.

Give God that space to work in you. You'll be surprised what happens when you begin that journey to finding happiness, celebration and  LOVE!

Try it

Back Again!

New year. New posts. Guess who's baaaccckkkkk???!!!

It's been a really long time since I posted up anything and I have been receiving request to update so here it is.

The primary intention when I had started this blog was to release and heal. It ended up doing a whole lot more for  me than that as I was able to be honest in a way I wasn't when talking to friends. A lot has changed since then, especially me.

I don't expect anyone to understand or even care about anything I say but I will thank you in advance for taking the time to read anything I post.

So first major thing that has changed I  my life is the fact that I don't talk to A* anymore. Not at all. Not even interested for phased by it. I guess I knew it would happen and now that it has, I'm ok with it. Life moves on. I wish him all the best in life and with his family. I occasionally find myself saying a little prayer for him but that's usually where it stops. I don't want to waste  energy on things that are not positive in my life.

Major change #2 is that I don't believe God exists. I KNOW He does. I've been on a journey of discovery that has catapulted me in a realm of finding knowledge. My brother introduced me to a series online that has absolutely opened my eyes to God's majesty. I'm not at the stage of some of the featured people in those video's but I'm enjoying the journey I'm on.

Guess what?! I knit and crochet now too! Yes, that's right, KNIT! I taught myself a new skill( with the help of a few tutorials of course). I love it though. It's amazing that my hands can create all these beautiful pieces. I'm proud of myself for trying it. This year I'm going to teach myself another new skill, just not too sure what yet. Any ideas?

This blog is not just about me anymore but about everything I encounter in my experience. Be it in thought, spirit or body. I want to live a positive life and so I will only speak positive.

I love God, my family and my life!

Till next time..
