Authentic and Free to be me

  • The lonely world of transformation

    a friend of mine told me “you are the one that has to walk thru your own shoes.”

    I have now changed the word from I have to, of that “I get to”

    Get to is to be grateful of the work that I’m allowing myself to do. Before I corrected this statement I put, “allowing myself to go thru the work” “go thru” sounds forced in my opinion

    another friend of mine told me “words are spellings, and the root of spelling is spell” to cast a spell. So I tend to change my phrasing as this life, and how I choose to walk this path is a choice, not an obligation.

    To walk this path to not be the person I was last week, month, year, or a past lifetime. It’s a solo journey into one’s behavior, mind, and action. The good news is it can be a group thing too, as surrounding yourself with people that lift you up.

    I thought about deleting this post as it may sound a bit debbie downer but to be authentic is to share the good with the mucky waters to get to a place of clarity and build inner strength,.

    It is so easy for me NOT to do the WORK as how its spelled out, this is work, a deep commitment to oneself of not glossing over the person I was and the person I strive to be.

    yes, I could look at this in a different way and instead of lonely like its a bad thing, could rephrase it as a time I get to spend alone doing the work.

    yes, I should be outside tending to gardens, pulling weeds, harvesting crops, as just a few days ago we had over 75 organic cucumbers on the kitchen table in my house. and I know the tomatoes are ripening and the basil needs pruning. yes all things that need to be done, but I’m choosing to be painting, writing, watching some tv, and being with myself

    tomorrow is a day of digging a 100ft trench 18″ deep to run piping. so I should be grateful of what I get to do, instead of manual labor.

    so the thought process on my title was good as it helped me reframe my thoughts and processes.

    good day

  • What does it mean to stay in a playful world of being in your inner child?

    First off, there would be a rainbow of colors, different fonts, glitter, fairy’s, and a world of make believe. Their would be no rules just FREE to be ME.

    I woke up this morning and felt FREE even just for a little bit, which felt like PURE HEAVEN! no worries, second guessing about sending this text or what about this or that.

    How does one stay Present? As all we have in life is the Here and the NOW. What was sent yesterday in a text or what could or could not happen in the future is a time that is un written. The PRESENT moment is where the MAGIC happens,.

    Easier said than done as we are programmed to worry, have anxiety, fear, being alone, not loved, not being loving enough, not showing empathy. Whatever the case of what we carry in our depths of life.

    A very dear friend is the master of staying present, and just in AWE of how she does it. I dream of being able to do that.

    There is another concept, we live in our dreams, we get to be our own superhero and play in our dreams as we are free. I believe our dreams are our subconscious, and if my subconscious wants to be free, be light, have fun and keep it playful then my dream world will be just that.

    This is truly what I strive for! How can I stay in my inner child of present moments and be FREE?

    as I contemplate this question, fear and anxiety are coming to the forefront of my thoughts., what about this or that. am I loved enough, do I have the guts to show my vulnerabilities, and just be free without a doubt in the world. I believe Self Love is the KEY to being Free. For me, exercise / eating right is so Huge in my life. Getting in my morning yoga and if time permits, getting in my evening yoga mat time too. I find 2 yoga classes a day seem to really work for me and the therapy it provides. Mat time is just so essential on staying playful, positive, and FREE.

    I started the blog to go on my transformational journey of life, and at first, it started out a bit dark and heavy but as I go thru my days, its getting lighter. I think there is a balance of dark and light. for me, its not so much blame or this person did this or that. I’m old enough in life to take my own responsibility. and base things on true facts, can’t blame parents for this or that, I can just state facts of what happened and delve thru it all. Be proactive and find solutions, or just sit with it and the solutions will come.

    How does what I just said have anything to do with staying in your inner child? Mindset! How you view the world. People go around blaming others and not taking responsibilities and I’m like this because of this or that. Maybe so, but blame does nothing.

    Sometimes just being is all that matters in life! again, staying in the present moment.

    As I talk out on paper my thought process, and thank you for reading if anyone reads these, how I can stay in the present moment. I was just telling a friend, that I am able to start a blog and write so freely, as I don’t work for a company, have a boss, doesn’t matter if I overshare or not being of some companies image. I am FREE to be ME!

    Its TRUST that everything will work out like its supposed to in the greater good, that picking the friends that I have are good people that are also full of love. We lift each other up when we are down, and just there for one another. There maybe times of heaviness but the LOVE is there and always will be, as I am LOYAL to a fault. My inner circle is SO LOVED and CHERISHED !

    I feel when you have good people around you, that just adore you as much as you adore yourself, its easier to get into your inner child as you are supported to just be you or me.

    I started a community where we live in harmony with one another, and have weekly dinners. As I feel community is where the MAGIC happens. Even people that don’t live on property come and hang out with us. I am just so grateful that I have a property that this can take place on and have attracted like minded people that also want to play in community. “play” as life should be about.

    Community where it be a garden community or group of friends that come together is key in my opinion. We as a whole have gone down a weird 5 years where the world has pumped fear and aloneness in our being. I believe the TRUE MAGIC comes to LIGHT when we come together as families chosen or biological and share the LOVE that each of us Have, Want to have, Want to Share, Be apart of. We ALL have this Desire to be LOVED and CHERISHED!

    If you haven’t spoken to a dear friend in a while, reach out! Call a family member just to say hi. Again, All we have is the present moment!
