Marathon

Life is like a marathon, you take it at your own pace, meet people along the way, have rest stops to rejuvenate and then there is the wall that makes you face the truth about yourself. Where are you on your marathon?

Independance Day

We just celebrated Independence Day, better known as the 4th of July.
This year as I was thinking about how I wasn't celebrating, it hit me hard, how independent are we. I am not talking as a nation that would be a whole neither post. I am talking about how we live each day. Today is Monday, how many of us already have a "to do" list that we are not looking forward to doing, have any of you already agreed to accomplish way more than you should have? How many of us are carrying around guilt, fear, and anger for doing or not doing these things? How many of us will do things on our own, because no one will do it the way we want or how we think it should be done?

I ask again how Independent are we? If I ask for help does that mean I am not independent? If I rely on someone else to help me achieve my "to do" list, does that make me needy or weak?

I realized, for me Independence is having a full understanding of who I am. I haven't, nor will I be "assimilated".

What are your thoughts?

Dancing

I love to dance, my kids love to dance. I have just attached pictures of them dancing. Dancing is a great way to get rid of negative energy. Have you ever felt like you could punch someone in the nose, and knew that wasn't a good idea? I suggest dancing it off, I mean really can you truly stay mad or irritated when YMCA comes on? Better yet can you refuse the urge to stop what you are doing to do the YMCA when it is on? If so, I feel you should dance more, you are wound up to tight. My suggestion for the day is to down load a bunch of songs that make you move and name it, "songs to release frustration so you don't kill any one." It is a rule at our house that if the "Macarana, YMCA, or the Cha Cha Slide" comes on we all stop what we are doing and dance to it. Yes, that is a warning to any of you that are planning to visit my home. Have a funalicious day!

Paths vs Stages

Whew whooo. Is that how you spell it? Today is an awesome day my angels say that I will have blessings of abundance, I will be rewarded and that I should pause. I am hoping that the reward will be that my printer will finish printing off my Open House invites. How ever I will take what ever reward the angels give me.
I did have a epiphany last night as I was going to sleep. It began with the thought of "Grief stages". I have a client who's mother is not doing so well. So, I was reviewing the stages: Denial, Anger, Blame, Grief, than Acceptance. I believe there are more, but this is the list I was going through, when I went off on a tangent. Some believe that there are 7 paths we follow through life. I am one of them until last night. If we go through "stages" wouldn't it be 7 stages rather than paths, and now I have (with the help of my two best friends) discovered an 8th stage. I guess they are called paths as it is something we follow, where as stage could be considered stagnant. What are your thoughts?

Bail me out

Help, I am being put in jail to raise money for MD. Log on to https://www.joinmda.org/2009rivertonlockup/camille and bail me out.

Oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day.

Can you hear the song? Today is the day I am going to have a spring in my step, a smile in my heart and a song on my lips, no matter what the electrical stuff does.

Another day

Do you think that if I leave the room that my printer will print? I have been trying for the past 2 hours. Grrrrrrrrrr! Any suggestions?
