I just received a gorgeous pedicure from the ladies at Granville Day Spa. Light purple with artistic flowers. Stunning.

My issue now is whether I not I attend Hot Yoga tonight. I risk the chance of my pretty toes being ruined! I'm challenging this month and would really like to finish the 30 Days necessary to complete it.

What to do? There are cons and pros to both scenarios. Going to class, feeling fantastic and checking another day off my challenge is a definite pro. Staying out of the steamy hot room to avoid ruining my lovely pampered feet is a con/pro. How long should/would/could I not enter the hot humid room in favour of my totsies? A day, two, three, a week?! If that's the case then my Challenge is over and uncompleted resulting in a big, nasty con. Of course feeling good and having cute feet is the ideal situation.

What to do, what to do? I'm tore between the two. I could possibly go back to the Spa tomorrow if my toes are wrecked and ask to get them fixed up?

I'm letting it go and giving it up. The solution will come and all will be well.

Until next time.

Ode to Olivia

Black and White and oh so pretty
Olivia The Cat charming and witty.
She loved to suntan, chase birds and eat
Today she rests eternally
Nestled among Angels' feet.

As a kitten Olivia was wild
Bouncing off chairs, counter tops and backs
Finding refuge inside old sofa mats.

In her older years she grew soft, gentle and tender
Offering plenty of kisses and affection
To loved one and family members.

Olivia was my princess
The best cat to look after
We will love and miss her dearly
From this day forward forever after.

I love you Princess Olivia.
May you rest in peace. xoxoxoxox

This Too Shall Pass

Feeling over loaded with emotions of self-doubt and worry can bring the soul down a path of anger, resentment, pity and isolation.

Letting go of the drivers seat and trusting that these times of confusion are part of growth and self-realization will shed light on any challenging situation.

Staying healthy, grounded and aware are most valuable aspects to follow. Seeking guidance from peers you trust and knowing you will be looked after is all you need to get through this slump.

Trust in your truth. It will always serve you right.

Falling Truth

Falling forward. Reaching reckless.

Breath by breath. Breath by breath.

List of values.

Value the truth.

Wouldn't it be nice

Wouldn't it be nice to turn off those feelings you REALLY didn't want to feel. With the flip of a switch, a snap of your fingers and presto.... those bad, mad, sad sensations are good and gone.
Fortunately, you can.
There are different forms of self-healing and self-improvement techniques to rid us of the human suffering. I'm sure you have heard of some of them things like tapping, healing hands, breathing techniques, and my favorite YOGA, are just a few tremendous tools to turn that frown upside :)

Moving Right Along

Just as in yoga, one must strive to write, make music, dance, sing, draw or paint each day. If we lose touch with these gift of creation, we loose touch of our selves. We move further along the path pondering why things aren't going right. What has made our moods wonder from magnificent to mundane?

Create, even if you think your creation isn't "Perfect" or carries value. You never know who you might touch and help them along their celestial destiny. Seeing your creation may influence others to do something similar. Attempt something they always enjoy but never, "have the time to do".
If you really want to make a difference in your world and make a positive change in your attitude, then some personal sacrifices are expected. But the result is worth the inconvenience.

Get up fifteen minutes earlier to write a song. Instead of a coffee break at work, take a creative break. Take twenty minutes before bed to unwind and let the creativity flow. In a few weeks, you will be amazed at your new creative masterpieces.

Create and enjoy.

Love and be free.

Texas Purple

Something tells me
We are all alike
Dreams, visions, emotions
Texas purple electric strike

Fear of the unknown
How we ought to be
Express yourself via colour
Embody life breath serenity

Rapture passions
Original delight
Absolute quintessential
Plasmic siren dynamite
