"Get Into Lots of Trouble"

"Get into lots of trouble" my friend says to me.  Something inside of me could relate to that advise.  I want this year to be the best year of all and so far it has been filled with some special things.  When I think of getting in to trouble I think of having unabashed fun and pulling out the stops.  Pulling out all the stops means asking for what Elliott wants and deciding what his boundaries will be.  Knowing when to say yes and when to say no thanks is a crucial part of it.  This year I have been to California, now the Hampton's and next visiting a friend in Springfield Mo.  My biggest trip is to India in September where I will teach in a school and stay in an ashram for five days.  I will hopefully stay for three weeks.  It is a trip I have been longing to take for many years now and now there are no  barriers to stop me from going.  I intend to get into a lot of trouble but in a good way this year and my  celebration of life patty in May is one of the ways I am going to say yes to the joys of life.

I could have good reason to wallow in the dark parts of my life, to feel sorry for myself, but that is not what I want to manifest or create in my life.  The last year is a testament to the courage Source has provided for me and the miracle of my own life.  I am a warrior like my daughter said I am.  I am courageous and stronger than I ever thought I'd be.  I am a better person than that year in January when I returned from California and realized that my life would need to change.  I as they say did it "with a little help from my friends".  I was able to overcome the things I'd not thought I could in spite of people wanting to kill my spirit and in spite of my own doing for good or for bad.  We all make mistakes and I am not above that truth.

For me "get into trouble" just means have fun and don't censor yourself.  Enjoy the moment whether it is a spontaneous kiss or a long embrace.  Getting into trouble means to jump on a trampoline if that is what it takes to feel my feelings and cry a river of tears if that is how I am feeling.  My friend has only pointed out the obvious for me.  Live every moment, grab every opportunity, dance like a top and sing even if you don't sound like a singer.  Be in the moment your in and be OK with it.  Love who you are now and accept yourself as you are in this life and moment.  Shine your light when you feel like it might be helpful and say what you mean with all your heart.  Put everything you have into what you are doing.  Get into lots of trouble.

A Seasoned Vs Old Person

Those of you who know me personally might be aware that I don't use the word "old".  I don't think that people should be referred to with a word like old and I believe that as we live longer lives we are wiser and that we can be looked upon as "seasoned".  For me the word seasoned means that we have lived a good life and that we have gone from one season to another experiencing life and the many ups and downs of it.  I don't see the word old as one that honors any human being for their acquisition of wisdom and the things they have been able to overcome.  I for one consider myself a seasoned man not an "old man". There are so many meanings to the word old but the one that I am not in agreement with is the connotation that older is less than and younger is more important.  Unfortunately we live in a world where youth is celebrated and seasoned people are looked down on.  The thought is that younger people are more attractive or that they are m...

Your Skirt Is Over Your Head

I am uncertain as to how many of my readers know what I mean about putting your skirt over your head.  All I know is that my sister once said it and I think I heard it in a movie once.  I do know that in the movie "Mermaids" Cher who played the mom had some great lines about being a woman and just having a good time with life.  In one of those what should be famous lines Cher's daughter played by Winnona Ryder says: "Don't you think yoiiu are too old for that dress?"to which Cher responds with: "Don't be silly Charlotte, a woman is never too old".  In another part there is a stunning young man waiting on their porch to welcome them to the country area where they moved and upon setting eyes on him Winnona Ryder who is Charlotte is mezmerized by him.  Cher suddenly turns around and says: "too bad your hell bent on becoming a nun".  To say that Cher truly pulls the dress over her head is really minimizing her role in this movie that I wo...

Visualize It, Manifest It.

Let me just excuse myself from the non-believers as I know you are out there and the mere idea of believing and then achieving seems silly.  If you are one of these people, you should stop reading now and simply not waste any time because if you don't believe in yourself then you will not understand how manifestation works.  This blog is not just about believing and then getting what you believe in but more importantly how to go from the thought of being your highest self to actually being your highest self. And so if you believe, even a little, keep going because this is about having what you want in life ether spiritually, emotionally or physically.  Here are some ways to get there: Setting Your Intention: The very first thing to do when you want to manifest something (joy, money, relationship) is to set your intention.  You can set your intention by speaking of what you want in a way that feels intentional. An intention can sound like this: My intention is ...
