I Like Me Now

I like me now.  Now that I realized that no one else could like me more.  Now I feel like I flow and that what I do means something, everything, all of me.  I like myself because I became bored of the abuse and not being heard and decided that I would be the first to hear me.  The pain is not completely gone.  I am not healed completely but this is a wonderful start to a new life, clear of the dibree that haunted me and clear of people who hate themselves and wanted to hate on me.  Clear of the fake smiles I put on for a show and clear of all that could hurt me.  Now I am the only one that can hurt me and that is why I must like me now.

I like me now because when I look in the mirror I see a mountain of possibilities and I can still see Elliott deep inside looking back at me.  He loves me and now I love me too.  I find him every day once I see him and he speaks to my heart, that little Maximo inside of me.  I see that I am a miracle and that love is the answer to my dreams.  When I said yes to liking me and loving me more it all fell into  place and then I could smile.

Every person has something to be sad about.  And every person has something to be happy about.  Every person has some complaints and every person has something to be grateful for.  Yet for me I have found more to be happy and grateful for than sad about.  My joy comes from knowing that I am who I am and that I can overcome the fears and come back to me.  That I am good enough and smart enough and tall enough and beautiful enough.

Today I got up and thought for a moment what may become of me.  Then I figured it out.  I would become exactly what I wanted to become because I like me now.  Yeah!

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 ...
