hi everyone, thank you for being here.

“Peace comes first not last
What if peace is the cause of satisfaction instead of satisfaction is the cause of peace. ” Deepak Chopra

what an interesting concept huh ? That would mean that you would have to experience peace of mind first in order to be satisfied. I am looking at this concept  as I move forward to remove unwanted weight from my life …. In all areas of my life ….. Physical quotient, intellectual quotient, emotional quotient, and spiritual quotient and bliss quotient …… . So peace of mind comes first in order to experience a feeling of contentment and or satisfaction. Hmmmmmmm…..

I wonder how many changes I have to make before I am experiencing being at peace……. ? Do I have to change me or just my perseption about the way I look at things? If I change the way I look at things, won’t the changes in me happen naturally to support these new found paradigm shifts of vision? I think so. So how does this work,……. do I just sit around and wait for things to happen? No, that wouldn’t work because that ( sitting around)  really doesn’t introduce opportunities for the universal consciousness to fulfill your intentions but it is important for you not to micromanage either…… So I guess there is a balance in that too. You make the intention and then just go about your business, and look for coinsidences or synchronicities to guide you.

What is satisfaction will be different for all of us. But one of the things we do have in common with each other is that we are social beings. Well most of us anyway.  Personally I would like to meet a life partner that i can share my journey with. My heart is open again to the idea of that as a possibility. Now that I am well … Except for some joint issues I am healthy, ( first time in a long time) and feel more comfortable sharing this fun and creative  journey I have found myself on, with a life partner ( perhaps ) definitely  and friends and family.  Perhaps I am just a late bloomer, ha, but I am aware that the peace of mind I am talking about is important to cultivate because ….. how can you have lasting relationships with people with out it? My relationships with people is one of the most important things in my life. I love people ….. There is so much creativity in so many people. When a person chooses to be aware of themselves and what they do that person is in an expansive mode and they are not afraid to share their gifts. So if I am at peace then I bring peace to the relationship and if I am at peace then I am always satisfied with all my relationships. Hmmmm I like this concept.

Hmmmm …..  I wonder how many changes I have to make before I am at peace……. Do I have to change me or just my perseption about the way I look at things?  If I change the way I look at things, won’t the changes in me happen naturally to support these new found paradigm shifts of vision? I think so…. Once your perspective has shifted you see things that you didn’t notice before …. Here is where we make the choice either to do the same old thing or take a creative approach. Here is where you can make small changes that bring you closer to having more peace of mind in your life. So how does this work, do I just sit around and wait for things to happen?

Try meditation. Definitely do something creative to get the juices flowing. Start changing up your compulsions and patterns of behavior. Keep it fresh, try different things and try not to get bogged down in to much repetition. Keep it real. In other words be true to yourself. If you are interested in books and movies don’t spend so much time in a bar with your friends. Your down time should include things that reflect what your hearts desires are about and those include YOUR interests. Do what you are really interested in doing; reading.? then go to a book store or the library or a lecture or book signing. This way you can immerse yourself in the present moment that really interests you and then there will never be a sense of lack if you are learning to do what truly makes you happy. I do not know if there is someone for everyone. I have not been able to connect with my life partner, so I feel like I am the last person that should be talking about this. On the flip side of that thought I do know that when you are involved with something that genuinely makes you happy, you will be helping yourself to spend your precious time that you have here on this planet  on that which inspires you. Also when you do that you can not help but walk inspired and there for inspire others. A bonus; all these things will make you happier and healthier while you are patient and waiting for your hearts desires to connect with you. Being love is a great state of mind to be in always. When you practice just ” being love” you are moving love as a verb and not just as a noun. Your walk and talk is loving and kind. But I will be honest , I miss being in love. I am like everyone else, I would like to experience being in love as well as the ” being love ” that I practice all the time. I do not know when that will happen so in the meantime the best thing I know to be is love. That assures me that love is always around me and I’m around it.

So to all of us that have not been able to connect with a life partner …. I wish for us the blessings of a God Consciousness that rules in an abundant Universe and is the Spirit of all that exists. A friend nicknamed GUS, God Universe Spirit) or another fun acronym is C.U.S ( Consciousness, universe, quantum Self )  May we all be guided by the hand of GUS or Cus or however you choose to call the Omnipotent Source of all that exists, so we can connect with our best synchro destiny and share it with our hearts desires no matter with whom that may be.

Creating Great Days, Love In Always
