There is Beauty all around us

There is beauty everywhere. Take a moment  and look. smell, reach, touch. Life is happening all around me and I want to take it for a ride.

The Light House Journey

A few weeks ago , we started a journey. The journey was to discover lighthouses up the coast of California. It gives us a focus and a direction to move toward. California is a wondeful state what a shame not to really discover it for all its beauty. My daughter, my boyfriend and me as taking  a look at the beauty and history that surrounds the historical light houses of California..I will be writing more, they are breath taking.

Reflection

After losing so many people in my life. I have to admit, I spent  great deal of time in lamentation of what I had and lost. Yes, you hear all the time people telling to do the opposite. Unfortunately, it is something you have to come in on you own about that part. I lost them, I know but, the grief  caught me off guard. it took me off my game. what I mean for game? I mean the game called life. That is where my new observation has been. I spent   a great deal of time lamenting what I had, that Id dint think about what I have. yes, I know its a very Christmas thing to do but, there really isn't  a wrong time to come to that realization. The realization, brings a sense of freedom and a deep understanding I thought I had but, didn't.

Those that I have loved and lost, gave me so much. their loved changed me, enveloped me and create d anew me that would have never been created if it wasn't for their love. So, I wanted to take a moment to take all those who loved me for me, Your love put on the path to becoming the individual that I am now.
So, looking deep in my heart, and closing my eyes I want to send it out into the universe, thank you for becoming the fiber of who I am and who I am becoming.

Moving forward? well, of course. You can't be empowered with the power of where you are in the universe and decide to do nothing. That just sint' my way. Will I have a companion on this journey? That is still a mystery. I like surprises. If that happens,  it will be a welcome asset to the path on this  amazing journey called life....It really is all sweet...to sweet to waste. So, you hate what is happening in your life? Shake your bones, shake your body like you haven't shaken it ever and vow to begin again. To look forward and well do some butt kicking and give life  a run for its money... 

One Nation, One Economy

I have never been on to be very political but, at this time of years you see all kinds of things and you wonder. What is the world coming to. at this point the Congress is arguing  a bill that will give cut breaks for those who have anywhere from millions of dollars to billions...A tax break for people with enough money that in reality they will never be able to spend int heir life time. Now, I am not political but, I am practical what is really wrong with that picture. we are surrounded by a 12% unemployment , the everyday family living on the street. The same people who got rich out of all this want a tax break now. It doesn't make any sense.Doesn't anyone realize that Greed is not a good thing. Sure you are part of an elite club but, news flash, when your dead your are dead. And unless someone figured it out, you cant take it with you.

So the world seems to be divided very simply between the have and have nots. I am not saying to give people hand outs all the time. but, I am asking that if people are given an opportunity to work they will work. I know that for a fact. The news shows the information very isolated. when the majority of the people on unemployment, medicaid and welfare are white. It's not that the minorities are using the systems all up, its that peole are in hard times.If we came tot he conclusion that  the crazy stories about people beating the system are the  few not the norm maybe things would change.

So, I have to ask myself. Why would someone with so much money concern themselves with everyone else?
Why would 2% of the worlds wealth ( including the good US of A.) really want to help the nation that gave them the opportunity to be who they are? They won't. I myself yarn to win the lotto or something big that could afford me to take care of my family. But, it begins there. I would want it  so I could make a real difference. Teach a man how to fish and he can feed his family forever.

It is simple but, that is the problem its to simple in a very complicated world we live it. So, I sit here and write and throw these words out in to the universe...You never know what can happen unless you put it out there, Lets make a difference. As a people we are amazing, generous, unbeatable, loving , courageous, thinkers, doers, husbands , wives, sisters bothers, mothers, fathers, cousins, aunts, uncles, grand parents. Lief gives us a gift to make a difference. lets us become an army of doers. The 98% can make things happen but, we have to cover each others backs and think about not what makes us different but, what makes all the same..

Dare to Dream

Fo one moment today I let myself fears go. I let my own belief of what I can not do disappear. What was I left with? I was left with the courage to dream again. To dream of  a life where the past is but a fiant memory. To Dare believe that as this journey reached  a fork in the road; there may actually be some unknown variables I never thought I would run into. So, great is the joy in my heart.  I feel myself beginning to gain the strength of my own fearlessness . The true belief that all I have to do is dream it and it becomes possible. The journey becomes clear and the companion along the journey is clear as well.

Ink to Ink

There is something about color and texture I can not resist.. Its like having a relationship with a brush and paint. I can just not get enough of it..
