EYES WIDE OPEN

My rule for knowledge:
There is no such thing as arguing in the sense that people normally apply to the word argue. Instead there are differing points of view. When all the screaming and yelling and telling everyone they are wrong is done, we all walk away inspired by new thought; Be it because we have been proven wrong, or because we have been forced to modify out thought, or because we were forced to defend ourselves. Regardless of what the result was, arguements heated or not, we walk away with our eyes wide open, leading to new or renewed thoughts.

Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets...
so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't and believe that every thing happens
for a reason, and if you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it...
Nobody said that it would be easy...they just promised it would be worth it...

I wish for all my family and friends to have abundance, be resourceful, and happy in this lifetime, that
they also find peace and harmony within themselves and all around them, and that this world become
more balanced and nurturing and peaceful. I wish for all my family and friends, to find that love you seek,
whether with family members, friends, or lovers....or even your pets. Abundance will follow.

"Life would be tragic if it weren't so funny" Stephen Hawking (I am learning to find the humor in it all)

I am dancing, laughing, crying, sighing, expressing, and enjoying this wonderful life that has thrown so many curve balls, that dodging them, has developed a new dance for me...my own dance...and I step to the beat of a different drum.

I lost my place in line, but who cares? It has allowed me to see a newness that I could not see, because I had blinders on; Tunnel vision, perhaps.
The blinders have come off, and I would suggest that if any of you out there have blinders on, live in a mundane routine lifestyle, and never stop to smell the roses, take chances, or take the flying leap of faith, then do so~ Take time out for yourselves...your friends....your families..the things you love...for the moments that pass you by, will never return...and you will miss some of the best things life has to offer.

"If you can see it, hear it, feel it, taste it, touch it, or smell it, you can be present with it. It is of the present moment, and so it brings to you the opportunity to be present with it." THAT is the gift~ The Present.

We cannot truly love others unless we can love ourselves. Find the hidden treasure within you.

I want to thank all of you out there, family, friends, loves, relations...for contributing to this newness of awakening with my eyes wide open, and I am seeing life with different eyes.

I now go forward with my
