I miss you all.

I haven't been writing as much as of late, things got pretty hectic, and disorganized, but everything is back on track now it seems. After getting a job in a kitchen, and loving what I do, I was let go for quite a strange and illogical reason, which in the end worked out, because I have now found a job that I am passionately in love with, and is going to build some bridges for my future!
I am now a receptionist at a naturopathy clinic. The doctor and I get along famously. It started as a temporary position, but like everything in my life being on an upward swing, I have now secured it as a permanent position.

I have enrolled in yoga teacher training, and I have been busy studying like crazy!!! The theory program, I have about 7 months to work on now, and the hands on training is in July 2013. I start my anatomy and physiology portion in February and sometime between now and then, I have to take a one day first aid program as well.

I have paid off my car finally too, which has left me financially free. Free from the constraints of possessions. Never again will I purchase such an extravagant month to month purchase.

This is just the shorthand of what has gone on, and I must run to my yoga class for this evening, but I wanted to update those of you who either enjoy, or miss what I have to say!!

Namaste!

What do I do?

I have things... that don't belong to me, that are of sentimental value.. that I really want to get back to their owner, and yet, I am not allowed to have contact with him. I don't want to keep it. I want to give it back.. desperately. Just know, I will hold onto it safe until I can find a way to return it.

“Dear Human: You’ve got it all wrong. You didn’t come here to master unconditional love. That is where you came from and where you’ll return. You came here to learn personal love. Universal love. Messy love. Sweaty love. Crazy love. Broken love. Whole love. Infused with divinity. Lived through the grace of stumbling. Demonstrated through the beauty of… messing up. Often. You didn’t come here to be perfect. You already are. You came here to be gorgeously human. Flawed and fabulous. And then to rise again into remembering. But unconditional love? Stop telling that story. Love, in truth, doesn’t need ANY other adjectives. It doesn’t require modifiers. It doesn’t require the condition of perfection. It only asks that you show up. And do your best. That you stay present and feel fully. That you shine and fly and laugh and cry and hurt and heal and fall and get back up and play and work and live and die as YOU. It’s enough. It’s Plenty.” — Courtney A. Walsh

Happiness x posted.

Lately there has been so much to be grateful for. My health after the car accident has improved vastly. My daughter has come home from a 10 day vacation with my parents 1500km from home, and we've been wonderful since she got home. I'm working at a job I love, where I've received amazing feedback from the owners...much improved from my toxic job. I feel an overall sense of happiness and contentment these days. I'm not sure if it's better living through chemicals the paxil, the change in career, my endless joy with my daughter, the yoga I am partaking in regularly, the daily meditation, or ALL of the above...but I am gracious just the same.

I posted a status on facebook today...

When you ponder your day, thank those people who enriched your life today. Thank those people you love today. Thank those people who love you today...and thank those people who gave you challenges that you overcame today. Mindful thanks help you grow.

It's true. Being thankful consciously helps bring greater joy to your life, and enriches those around you in return. <3
