Should you be Responsible for Another

Sometimes it can be confusing as to the right kind of action for a loved one.  In our feelings of love for someone else we can become confused what to do.  In order to make an ‘inner’ decision it is important to detach from the personality/physical self of another. When we think of love on the physical self level instead of the higher plane level it can form a very limiting bond between you and the person you are confused about.  The only responsibility that you have is to yourself because if you take responsibility for another it becomes limiting for everyone involved.   You can release the situation to the Universe knowing an answer of ease will come in return.  Once you release it,  see it as taken care and keep moving forward in your own life.  Another will only have release in their own life according to where they are in their own thoughts. They are choosing their experience…not you.  You can continue to create your own life and release any feelings that may hinder you.  They are responsible for changing their circumstances, not you.  Just be loving and accepting of who they are.  They don’t need fixing.  They are creating their life and even though it may not be what they (or you) want, accept the ‘being’ they are within.

A wonderful day full of turkey and all the trimmings!  We have more family coming in today so we have a houseful!  Guess I better get into the kitchen and cook breakfast.  Have a wonderful day!

The Magic of Positive Thought

Think about the difference between positive and negative thinking and how it makes you feel.  When positive, it feels as if some kind of magic is coming in When you think negative, what is there?  Nothing but fear, doubt, and feelings that make you feel worse.  When you think positive about your life and all that you can accomplish there is a sense of excitement and joy in having the life you desire. With negative thoughts you feel deflated as if life is hurtful.  Do your best to see the positive in your life.  This doesn’t mean that you don’t take care of what is in front of you or that you ignore what life seems to be bringing,  just start retraining your mind to shift focus to something better.  Do things a bit differently that day.  Give a smile to someone on the street and start focusing on positive things you can do with your life right now.  As you feel more positive and do more positive things, the Universe can feel from you what you want and it will come right to you through the magic of positive thought.

Lee is holding down the fort today while Mom and I go to the ‘big’ city for her radiation therapy.  She’s feeling wonderful and is meeting so many new people.  She’s funny.  She is such a private person but when she gets out in public, she becomes Ethel Merman…over the top happy, outgoing, and friend to all!  She even sings!! Love that Mom!

The Essence of Criticism

The essence of criticism is resentment and a feeling of not being good enough. Resentment can be a range of egotism to fear.   When you criticize someone you are really hurting your own self. Maybe the person you criticized will take it to heart and accept what you have said and that is their choice but it is also your choice whether you say anything or not in a critical tone.   Ultimately it is you who is vibrating out a form of fear of your own projection of what you believe about yourself.  Reflect in your words how you want to live your life by being kind and holding your tongue if there is something that shouldn’t be said.  Begin to see others as you want to be and the reflection of your life will be one of kindness from others and to yourself.

I better have lots of coffee today!  I’m going back and forth from the house to the studio all day long.  Cooking up pumpkin pies, finishing tamales, baking cornbread for the stuffing, and then I’ll head out to the studio to record then back inside for more cooking.  I’m taking Mom to the doctor tomorrow so I’m getting all I can done before we head out tomorrow.  Oops…I forgot…I should get the spinach dip done as well.  Do I sound frazzled?!   I’m really not.  I LOVE this time of year and I enjoy cooking for everyone that is coming. Enjoying every minute of life!!

An Affirmation for you

Get into a nice quiet spot and read these words.  Really think and feel what you are saying to get the full effect.   “I now release all indecision and doubt, all worry and distrust, and all fear of failure.  I go forward with all the trust, all certainty, and feeling of happiness and success to accomplish what it is that I have set my mind too.  I move ahead with my conscious vision that radiates into the eternal unlimited Universe and comes to me in the time that is right for all.  I am loved and supported in everything I do.”

Lee and I will be in the office this morning recording interviews.  I love hearing different perceptions of life and how people ‘be.’  No matter who we interview someone benefits from their story.  Life  stories help me to grow within.  They help me to expand my own scope of being.  I love how we all ‘tie’ together in this Universe.  We are helping one another without even knowing it at times.  Amazing…

What the Negative can do to your Physical Body

Did you know that you don’t have to think about your body in order for it to stay well?  It is when you think negative thoughts through your own perceptions of the physical world and physical bodies that cause you to have dis-ease within the body. If you kept your mind on positive thought and didn’t think one thing about your own body you would stay well.  Focus on the positives of life in general and you will be helping your own physical body to stay well.

We just got our power back on.  It was out all evening from a huge storm.  We all kept warm under blankets but now my toasty little heater is on full blast.  I appreciate my house and all its comforts and sometimes it takes losing something to appreciate it even more.

Here’s a Quick Law of Attraction Reminder

All you have to do is hold in your mind what it is that you want, feel the reality of it, and then act as if you already are living it within.  Could the LOA get any simpler?  Don’t make it seem hard when it is really very  simple.  Now it’s time to begin working on your own inner self to reflect the thoughts of the life you desire.

We had a wonderful evening with Lee’s family last night.  The next round of family is coming in next week.  I love this time of year when we are able to celebrate the joy of life together.  Have a wonderful day!

Joy is the Catalyst

The energy of joy is the catalyst to a calm and peaceful life. Anything that you hold within your consciousness that does not have joy dilutes your vibration that you send out to the Universe. When you begin to focus on what is joyful or positive, the energy within you becomes like a glue to attract joy into your life.  You need joy in order to hold together the vibrations of what you desire.  Find joy in everything you do and you will attract more positivity into your life.

A day full of joy today.   I’m cooking up a big turkey dinner with all the fixings for Lee’s parents.  They come here a little early because they help at the local shelter in their own town at Thanksgiving so we’re happy and excited to have them here.  We’re going out to breakfast and then back home to get dinner going.  Have a wonderful day everyone!

The Variety of Life

Everyone is always creating.  We are all unique and create differently and that is part of the charm.  We have many colors to choose from, not just one, and it is up to us to do the choosing.  But it is also up to us not to judge another person’s choice for when you judge and say, “You’re not right,” then you are now creating resistance of some sort.  Allow others to be as they are and stick to what you want and don’t want in your life.  Just because something may not work for you doesn’t mean that it can’t work for another.  Accept the fact we have all different kinds of ways to live and if you don’t like something then shift your focus to something you do like but don’t try to get rid of what you don’t like.  Maybe there is someone out there who likes it.  Allow and create your life.

Mom and I are on our way into town for her treatments.  She’s a bit apprehensive because I am not allowed to be in the room with her to put on her socks or help her with her clothes and hold her hand but I told her I would be with her as long as they would let me.  And then I would be right in the waiting room if she needs anything.  It’s as if she is a little girl and I am her mom these days.  Did you ever read the book ‘I Love you Forever’?  It comes to mind often these days.  It is a beautiful story about a young man who reflects on how his mom took care of him and as he grew older and as she grew older, he became the one taking care of her.  The circle of life.  An amazing Universe.  I am so thankful I am here to ‘ease’ Mom’s life a little.

And on that note…this morning Dad told Mom what a breeze the therapy would be and he kept going on and on trying to convince himself that it would be like walking in the park.  She turned around and looked him square in the eye and then…flipped him off. That’s my mom! Seventy eight years young.

Part of who you are

We all have some kind of parent in our lives whether it is a biological parent or someone who is stepping in to fill the role.  Some of us have great relationships and others have a bit more difficulty with relationships with our parents.  Remember that your relationships with your parents are what help create who you are.  They are partially responsible for the person you are today.  They taught you what you want and don’t want in your life whether it was directly related to the example they set or what they said.  Parents love and want the best for the children and sometimes their wanting the best can turn into what they want and not what their child wants.  That being said…thank your parents for creating the being that is you.

As the holidays come around the corner remember to focus on the positive things about family and your experiences.  Try not to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the season and enjoy each and every moment.  It’s the first thing I tell myself as the holidays come around the corner.

What Would Happen If…

What would happen if no matter what you had done or said that you knew you were loved?  And what if you loved yourself without any kind of negative talk.  How about you are completely free in any and everything you do?  What if you have no kind of obligations except to unconditional love?  And let’s say that through all this unconditional love you are able to vibrate above selfish ego based thoughts as well as personal needs.  If we had that kind of life, one of unconditional love, it would mean that you would have to give up criticizing others and any kind of situation.  You would have to give all your expectations of others.  You would have to give up your opinions about others and you’d have to give up your self deprecating thoughts about yourself.  Is it possible?  If it is… you will have found how to live from within.

We’ll be recording RADIO LOA today.   It’s been raining all night long and the wind has been howling.  I’m getting ready for our family to come in.  Three 20 lb. turkeys and everything that goes along with them.  I’ll be taking Mom to her radiation therapy on Thursday and working in some writing in between.  This is perfect weather for sitting down and writing.

Tomorrow is the big relaunch of the Manifest Station.  Please go to:

www.themanifest-station.com and enjoy loads of positive thought with authors such as Neale Donald Walsh, Deepak Chopra, and many more of your favorites.  Come join us for this wonderful manifestation!
