The Journey... (more)

When I began cleaning out my closet, I learned that my time is precious. Every moment matters and it’s up to me to decide how to use my moments.  We only get them once…….
I’ve been told by many people that I am so “full of life”……………..I guess that’s because I made room!  Making room involves a lot of hard decisions….
One of the first decisions I had to make was to get rid of the negative energy in my life!  I had to enhance my life with uplifting and positive influence and with that, I had to determine what in my life I was allowing to steal my sunshine!….. what was I enabling?  First I had to own it and then I had to act!
I decided to surround myself with uplifting and positive influence……people who encouraged my dreams and supported my ambitions! It was up to me to protect my space! When people approached me with negativity, it was up to me to say “STOP! This is my life and I need to do what is right for ME!”   
This new way of thinking allowed me to bring back memories of all the poems I had written over 25 years ago…..when I didn’t let people take the ME out of who I was.  I pulled out those poems, those saved pieces of me and I started reading all about what I saw and how I felt all those years ago.....
Little did I know that day,  I would be here with you unraveling the intricacies of timing, purpose, passion, conviction and just listening to that inner voice  guiding me to the place where I find the most peace and comfort ………where things feel so right………… right where I belong….. writing, sharing….just being me….
