Thoughts....

This is a repost of a former posting...I loved it..and changed it up a bit...

Today is July 10th 2008 one day until my dad's birthday! ...as I sit here quietly in my office typing I can't help but reflect on this year. Personally and Professionally it has been the most challenging for me. Sometimes, I secretly hope for it to be all over and just begin a new year again. I think about all of the most beautiful things that I hold dear to me, and I realize that the thing that I love and adore most in this world is my family. That would be my immediate family, and my amazing, beautiful children. I realize that really life is just about how or what you leave behind, be it by having children to carry on your legacy, writing a book, working to change poeple and make the world a better place by giving and sharing your thoughts and inspirations with others.

People work to live. They just go about their day at their jobs just to live. I want to live to work, not sit behind a computer everyday and type, but share my insights and thoughts with my family and my closest friends that want to receive what I have to give. This world is so small compared to the Universe, and I feel that with each thought that I have and share... it will resonate throghout the world to make a difference. People get so caught up and separate themselves from what they know as life outside their "circles" and they really don't realize that we are all one with the universal energy and not separate.

I love my family my Brothers, my mama and mom and dad. I love my children so very much...they are a part of me, and I am a part of them. So when I look back at all of my accomplishments, shortcomings, changes that I have gone through this year, I know everything whether good or bad has made me stronger, and made me the person I am at this moment.

I am a shifter. I shift. What does that mean? I have my thoughts and many times my thoughts carry me to another level of understanding. Another level of awakening. This in turn helps me project the energy to carry on my message, my vision. It really doesn't take much for me to be able to start the channeling the ability to manifest what I need in my life. I have this innate ability to bring about what I manifest in life. However, for me, to live is to dream. But, I do have a firm grasp of reality and of what it takes to operate successfully in practical and material terms. I forever want to be a person of substance, someone to be taken seriously and so I am willing to do the work, delay gratification, and build something solid and enduring in this life. I feel I have a capacity for self-discipline and for creating and maintaining stability in my life which to me are gifts that i can fall back on when faced with challenges.

I am inherently inspired conscious and open to experimenting with new forms of imagination and understanding. Through my openness, optimism, enthusiasm for adventure or new ideas, and my willingness to go out on a limb and do something unusual or risky, blessings flow into my life. I feel sometimes a willingness to follow my inspiration, to pay attention to uncanny coincidences and synchronistic events, which again helps me attune to a higher order and magnetize good fortune.
I have been blessed in this life.

Through many hardships I have overcome, I am the person I am today, and I am thankful for it. I wouldn't be half the woman I am today If I had not gone through the hardships and suffering of my past life, the life before my awakening. To me...sharing joy, fun, laughter, and playfulness is also one of the ways that I give birth to the new in my life. I feel as if my spiritually is advanced and because of my natural and instinctive generosity of spirit and concern for everybody's well being, I attract blessings and will always be spiritually connected. I feel I can also help organize and coordinate many people's efforts, contributions, and aspirations in order to achieve something great...

I know that it takes more than a single individual to achieve something great! I am gifted with the ability to connect my instincts and emotions with my intellect, and many of my talents spring from this, such as the sensitivity and dexterity with which I use my hands, my writing ability, my intuitive understanding of other people, and I have a capacity to both understand and communicate about the inner, subjective, personal, feeling side of life.

In the corridor of my dreams I see the past the present and the future lined as images along the walls, and I reflect with great inspiration on the challenges that I have overcome..and look forward to the many more images that will reflect back at me in the future, and welcome them with an open heart mind and soul....
