 Today I just want to stay simple....I more often than not get the idea for the daily blog the night before. This time was no different. Simplicity. Nothing big or grand....only profound thots of keeping things in life simple. Complicating things only makes for more issue. So my guide energy drew me to this short but sweet thot for today.
When your head hurts from the swirling confusion around any
situation....then its been over complicated. When going to work makes
you tired before you leave for the office, then things have become too
problematic. When you think of spending time with a friend and you feel
troublesome instead of pleased....the labyrinth of mis-communication is
the key. These examples are so few compared to the truth of the
complications we endure when we allow perplexing complications to arise in our lives.
Think about what your part is in the intricate complications in your
life. Do you have the key to unlock the energy and bring it back to
simplicity? Do you hold in your heart the heavy feelings that are
keeping the situations stuck? Can it be that if you let go of your
complicated stronghold, the simplicity of the situation would return?
I know that in my world, it is most certainly true that I have the
control to lighten the energy around any situation. In my world, I hold
the key to all of my own locked doors. Doors that surround feelings,
emotions, hurt and worry. All things we have control over being
simplified sounds good to me. And if you have NO control over something, then whats the worry for in the first place? A waste of your time. We are what we think.....and we draw to us that which we think. Simplify your life my dears.....then all things are possible. That which is
positive and good will become contagious and spread from within
outwardly toward those around you.
Work on the things in your life you can change....and know that that
does include anyone else but you. Everyone has to come to the point of
change on their own....but I know this....when you make a shift in your
life, it can and will be contagious to others....give it a shot.
Magical energy is created everyday for you in your name, Find yours!
 Recently I was asked, Does that Fake it til you Make it statement really work!!!? I answered, WHY YES, IT DOES! Putting yourself in the mindset of change is not always easy. One sure fire way to convince yourself it to HEAR yourself out loud saying the things you need and or want to hear. Give it a try!
There is nothing wrong with being your own best friend! Heck I encourage it in my children. Everything is returned to us in like energy, EVERYTHING. When you are kind to yourself, and treat your life with respect, the Universe picks up on that and returns to you the same thing. In the form of people, things happening to and for you, and in the way you feel about your life.
Everything comes together in our lives when we seek out truth, inner peace and balance. Negativity will find negative people. Positive energy seeks out positive people. There is no gray matter there, its black or white, period. If you find yourself not sure how to go about exacting a change in your life, you can put a little pep in your step and fake it til you make it! The thoughts you think, the words you utter, and the way you feel about everything all work in conjunction bringing to you what you seek.
If you are worried about life and bills and relationships then you will find each day new bills in the mail box and new ills for your mind and body and less and less connection in your personal relationships with others. This too is a given. Fake it til you make it works wonders for your souls connection to the Universal languages. Spout it to the roof tops, I am HAPPY and IN LOVE, or I AM ABUNDANT in ALL THINGS, or how bout, I AM I AM I AM AMAZING!
This may all sound alittle silly at first, and maybe even BE silly! But it works, and works well. Give it a whirl, take it out for a spin, drive around the block a few times yelling out the window, I AM A WONDERFUL PERSON WITH A FABULOUS LIFE! I guarantee you will be giggling and smiling and enjoying yourself! Say these mantras all day long, internally, externally, write it all down and post it around your life.....and before you know, you will have changed the way your mind is thinking about YOU!
Have a magical and blessed day!!! WEEK! MONTH! heehee!!! Much Love~ MP~
 As I laid in bed waiting for my son to fall asleep this evening, I noticed the brilliance of color the low light from the setting sun strewn across my bedroom. I began to see words dancing all around the room. Faith, Believe, Joy, Family, my childrens names. I think now I will be shopping for wall tattoos. What an astonishing year this 2012 has been thus far for me and my babies.
I crept down the long stair case, with the original banister from 100 years ago, and each step has its own unique groan. Made me smile as I remembered the house I grew up in, there was never any way to sneak then either! ~smiles~ As I round the corner at the bottom of the stairs and head out into my favorite room, my kitchen, I am caught again with awe at the colors the light threw my new curtains lays out across the walls. Do you know that feeling, the one deep inside your tummy.....warm and inviting that lets you know you are safe and happy? I dont believe in all of my life, that I can remember anyway, that I have ever felt so connected to a house as I am to this one.
I look at the days laid out behind me in 2011.....and am so filled with awareness for all that has happened to/for us in the last few months. I didnt even realize I was so worried about things until I was no longer in that space we just left. The last walk through it was short and sweet, and as much as I loved the calm there, I was light on my feet as I said goodbye and walked away from it for good.
Words like gratitude and respect in the written form seem so small in comparison to how I feel right now. My energy just knew I had to put it down. I felt a need to put to "paper" my thoughts and feelings. I have known gratitude and respect for a great many things in my life, from the smallest of things to the biggest. In these moments this evening as I walked through my new home, I was floating on a cloud of acknowledgment larger than I have ever felt before. (Well, except for the birth of my babies, but on such a different level)
I can feel the energy stir as I listen to the sounds of my children playing up and down and all around this large space and I find myself smiling more and more each day. That is the way it is I have found, when I am open to all things, without thought to control any situation. I have opened up to the Universe and in its infinite wisdom, I am shown yet again, that the plan for me is ever so much more than what I can imagine. There is much to be said about sitting down in life and letting go of the wheel, as opposed to white knuckling the direction WE WANT to go in. The irony is so simple I almost missed it.
This exercise in acceptance for me has been so enlightening. I know I must sound all gushy and stuff.....but I wanted to sit down and pen it out so to speak before the thought was lost among all the others.
We are all able to have this magic in our lives. Worry Doubt and Fear play WAY to big a part in most of our lives. 2011 was proof positive to me that the worry is not the winning side of life. I have stepped over that line and am now standing firmly in FAITH with Gratitude in my heart and pouring out of every pore!
Love and blessings to you all!!!!
The Photo is a of Lake Pepin at Sunset! This is where we now live. Isnt it beautiful!
 How many times do we get trapped or lost in the movement of a thot? i.e.worrying about taxes, bills, death, or even getting caught at something.....or catching someone else at something.....and in our thoughts we can create things that havent even happened yet just to make sure we get thru something if it happens? Ive done that for sure!
Not anymore, but I can surely tell you, I could create how an entire conversation would go in my head before I ever even said the first word. My point is this....again with the doubt fear and worry....the message is very clear. That we imagine ourselves into the proverbial box we would like to get out of just by staying stuck on a single thought process. That worry or concern that can eat at us because we arent dealing with what is necessary to get out of the situation, rather, we are having the whole worrisome scenario worked over and over in our thots.
This is how we get trapped in a rut that seemingly has no end. As you are reading this do you understand how this might play into something in your daily life? If the things that are spoken about in this blog seem to hit home with you, that is a the point of you being here at my site. That you can relate to what is being said, and maybe,just maybe get some help in the process for how to work thru your life issues, then that makes it all worth the effort to be here everyday.
We are all responsible for out lives....even the abused and neglected. That sounds tough hearted doesnt it? It is not meant like that. I believe that we all have a chosen path to live. Good bad or indifferent. Karma is chosen to be exacted in each life scenario we choose. I know this concept is tough for some to grasp, but please at least think about it. Rather than working the fear in your thoughts about the situations in your life, try to work it into the forefront of your life. Do not sit idly by allowing your life to play out in front of you without your interaction.
You can change the course of any situation with trust faith and belief in the Creator. Life is to be enjoyed, when we work thru the tough stuff rather than allowing it to control us, then we are back on track. There are always obstacles and issues to deal with....its dealing with them and putting them behind you that enriches your life....not sitting on top of them hoping they dont explode in your face. This only serves to slow us down and can actually stand us still.
Our spiritual maturity is gauged by our ability to be gracious and in balance when the good things happen, but more when those tough things do. Seeking our inner truths at every opportunity is the point!
Have a magical day......and believe that your life had purpose above and beyond your wildest dreams~
 Do you ever feel like expressing yourself and the words you are used to using just dont fit? So then you find some more, learn new definitions, implement new vocabulary and soon they fade in desired explanantion? That is how I feel so often these days.
With the changes going on inside of us....from the DNA on up....it may very well feel like our skin is two sizes too small as well. I sense a strong urgency in the universe....the movements are quick and fast paced. The massive transformation is needed to make space....ensuring that everything indeed does fit. Most everything that can be upsetting is the level of letting go of the old ways....the feelings and emotions attached to people, places and things.
There are physical aspects that go along with this transformation....being dizzy, feeling either hot or cold and not being able to attain the opposite, eating habits in a flux.....making it feel a bit weird to feel you need to eat more often....specially when you want to lose weight....the truth is the morphing process wears us down and we need to re-fuel more often.
Mid April will bring a flow and a rush with it that began in the summer of 09. As if something is finally being gifted to us for all of arduous work in the last few months. Being willing to let go of the old is allowing the new to flow into us. Like a fire purges the forest, so does this cleansing of the old allow for new growth.
I contend that the worry of standing on the cliff....knowing the immenence of the impending jump....that to stand there fretting is staying in the old....the willingness to jump is about the knowledge in truth that we know that the f.e.a.r. is unnecessary.....for the worry is not in jumping or landing....it is in THE EXPERIENCING OF THE FALL. What wonderment is about us during this free fall stage....and indeed, we are NOT going down, but, rather, UP!

Complicating things only makes for more issue. So my guide energy drew me to this short but sweet thot for today.

 I went yesterday to meet with a woman from my childhood. My doesnt that seem like a lifetime ago. We hit it off famously....but briefly spoke of the anger and unhappiness we all shared as kids....made is mean to each
other. Funny how almost 30 years can offer up a change that makes us now happy to sit in each others company. But that also lead to the realization that some things, and some people seem to never change.
Ok....so that brings to me to todays blog.....how to exact the changes
you want to happen in your life. Standing still is never an option....but indeed many folks do it that way. Making the choice to
stand in one place waiting or their life to happen around them. That is not what believe we choose this life for. We are about the experience of this existence....so that we may evolve into the next plain of being.
It does NO GOOD to sit and fussle and worrying about anything. PERIOD. There is no addendum to that statement....in other words giving certain moments when it would be ok. When you want something to happen in your life....when does it happen for you? Not when you are sitting around wallowing in worry about it NOT happening thats for sure.
Live your life to its fullest.....what does that mean? Most assuredly it
does not mean to stand in doubt about the possibilities for your life.
What about those people born into poverty? Into the ghettos across this world....starving and dying, or killing one another because they have nothing? I feel we ALL choose this life we are to live. That our "lot" as some call it is predestined and we have choices to make to make our life better. That also leads me to the place where we ARE ALL EQUAL.....we are all one. So, should there be starving people anywhere in the world? Hmmmm, not so sure about that.
Funny....as I am writing this this morning, I keep wanting to inject
other things, and my guide is pushing me to delete and begin a paragraph again....I am not sure why this happens, except that my personal opinion may be a bit too harsh and that from Spirit it comes across more palpable to others. I just wanted to tell you this as to be honest from my heart.
Ok....back on track....change...how to handle it, how to accept it how to direct your life in its direction. Its a simple thing actually.
Picture yourself in a boat....your boat....as if your life and its
course is set on water.....and you would think you need to steer the
boat....so you grip the wheel...sometimes loosely, sometimes white
knuckled.....all the while, not paying attention to the seat in the boat
that is behind you.....what would a seat be doing there if you needed
to man this boats direction.....cause the simple lesson is trust, faith,
belief.....in that fact that you can sit down, let go of the wheel.
\Allow your boat to drift onto its course....you are destined my dear to be on a path.....when you have blinders on and see nothing but fear doubt and worry, the change that needs to happen keeps on floating by....and you miss opportunity after opportunity as you command control of your life boat.
The message is simple....and spirit is most certainly directing me this
morning to let go of my personal opinion and allow in the simple truth that you all need to read....let go....let go of the control you feel is needed in your life and sit down. Take a break. What do you want in your life? What do you want to happen? What do you need to do to allow this change into your life? I can bet its so simple it will befuddle you..... a little trust, faith and belief in those things you cannot see hear or see.
Remember that we are all connected....like the root system of the great aspens in colorado....we are all one....even if that sounds silly, its the truth. This is the time to allow into your life the truth about our existence. No FEAR no DOUBT no WORRY.
Have a marvelous weekend ahead! Snow here in Minnesota.....yay!!!
 Good Morning to you on this fine Saturday! I have been working hard already this morning, and I have found some things I wanted to share here today.
Of all the areas studied in the relatively young field of positive psychology, gratitude has perhaps the widest body of research. Grateful people have been shown to have greater levels of positive affect, a greater sense of belonging, and lower levels of depression and stress. Furthermore, efforts to make people more grateful have their own benefits. Gratitude is clearly an important part of a “good life”, and it therefore demands further careful research. Each of the studies profiled here has strong scientific merit, and their results should give us a sense of cautious optimism as we move forward in the study of thanks-giving.
Think about that as you live your daily lives. I practice gratitude, daily. Sometimes its not always easy, but well worth it. There is so much to be thankful for, and not just during the holidays.
Enjoy your life!!! Its worth getting happy about!
 I have taken energy from many places in my blogs....from ideas that come to me from my sessions with clients, from an article I read, from movie plots and even from my children. I have some thots that have come up the last few days.....the balance line in life that happens when you know your purpose....or you dont.
Your attitude is like the aroma of your heart....if your attitude stinks then your heart is not right. Do you know what I am saying here? Can you feel that in your soul....what it means, these words? About yourself, or about those around you in life. That to feel so uptight and caught up in bad energy can make you so out of balance that it seems nothing can bring you back to rights. This is exactly what I mean when I say....you think it, IT IS. For if you accept defeat, then you will get it. In any and all situations.
Moments..... and only moments should be what we have in negativity. For a spiritually balanced person has the tools, faith, knowledge and understanding of how to get out of a hazy funk in their lives. Not weeks, months or even years of unhappy hell any longer. We are all in control of our course, and the key to learning that is to allow yourself to give away all of the pain, hurt, and negativity.....not to other people, but back into the universe....releasing the energy from its directed path to hurt and control you and those around you.
When we hold others responsible for our lives, our happiness, the flat out truth is WE ARE WRONG. No one is responsible for our lives. Children need others to raise them, we adults are "raised up" already. With cognitive minds and hearts....too many of us hold others in that place of "fault" for the wrong in our lives. We cannot judge someone by their actions and then judge ourselves by our intentions. Do you know what that means?
How many times do you stand in intention to"get something done", to "help someone out", to "find the time"? It seems that "the time" never arrives. Then we choose to point fingers at others for the very same things. What I am saying today is simple....take charge of YOU. Be in control of you. Dont look outside of you to have someone else fix whats broken.No pointing fingers , cept at the face in the mirror.
Determine which side of spirituality and balance you want to be on, and then stay there. Not just when you feel good, or things are going well. You stay on that path especially when its tough....for then you will be a light to others. That you have found truth in your heart will show others how to find theirs......and that it is possible to make it thru the tough things in life.Take responsibility for how you feel, how you act....and no longer allow yourself to pawn off on others and or other situations the responsibility of YOU and YOUR feelings, or choices. In all things....make this change.
Have a grand and glorious day lovely~
 There is a chill in the air. Im sure its happening in most places now, cept Cali and the on the sponge, Florida. Winter is setting in. The fresh air is intoxicating. I love this time of year. Im sure you are all tired of hearing about how much I love Fall and Winter. LOL.
I just wanted to write a quick note about paying attention to life in the days and weeks to come as 2011 comes to a close. There are many planetary movements, aspects aligning up. Its a major shift for the world as a whole. But it also holds a huge play in each of our lives.
There are many opportunities in each day to choose how your life unfolds. If life appears to be choking you out, or overwhelming in any way, take a time out. When we try to manage our lives in frantic mode, mistakes can, and most usually do happen.
Have a great rest of the week!!!!
Blessings and Love~
