Magic Bliss

I figured I would use green because green is LIFE. Abundant in Nature, Green signifies growth,renewal,health and environment! And all of these things are very important this time of year and well, any time, I guess…

Let’s start with growth…. we all need to grow and expand our awareness. Growth happens all around us all the time. It’s in trees, flowers, the people that are physically growing in our lives. We see it in the children we surround ourselves with, they are especially ‘good’ at growing! My awareness is growing DAILY! I made it a point not too long ago to expand what I think, see, say, yearn for, etc… I want to grow just as the trees grow.They have a deep root system, they shed their old leaves and ‘go with in’ when the temps turn colder. They are still there standing strong, holding their space, still looking over us all, waiting for the time to blossom again! This is me, this is how I want to be from now on! I have always felt a very close connection to trees, but now that I understand them I want to be more like them! So I guess to sum it up I want to grow from within this winter season, and when it’s time for me “blossom” I’ll know when and”BAM”!! watch out, here I am alive with newness and new growth and ready to teach the world!

I decided to switch back to the black text,easier on my eyes…  I already spoke of renewal;growth and renewal all tie into one. Because when you grow in any way, you are renewing as well.

Health is a big one for everyone. I feel especially healthy right now! I love to say that! Anyone who knows me well enough knows that I was not “well” for a long(ish) time… I had a lot of health problems associated with my thyroid. It has been a long, strange, often scary road that was really,really bumpy and uncomfortable. I turned it around! With the help of a wonderful doctor a few years ago that is a Naturopath AND and an MD! How could I have been so lucky! She taught me so much,but she also told me that I already”knew” these things I just needed to listen to myself and do what my body needed for her to get better. It worked! I am off my thyroid pills that were prescribed to me by her and now am on just a version of them that just has a ton of herbs, lots’ of green foods(spirulina,kelp..)and iron and vitamin c in one pill and it seems to be working! I also became gluten-free and wheat-free and now allow myself to SOMETIMES eat only “good” Salmon. Never before would I have said this! I weigh more than I ever have in my whole life(this is the only hard part…) but I know I look, feel and act in the way I am supposed to. I am “Melissa Magic”!!!!  So listen to your body, your soul, and she/he will tell you what it wants to do for you to be the best ‘you’ that you can be!

Now for environment… your surroundings… where you live, work, play, act, and ‘be’ yourself everyday. Are you happy with the place you find yourself in everyday? You should be! Do you enjoy the place you find yourself sitting most often? Do you like your home? Your job? The people that surround you most often? Do you enjoy walking in the door at the end of a long day and become glad that you are “home”? If not, why not? I ask myself these things, and now I know that things can change. I KNOW change is inevitable, you can’t stop or slow down change, once I knew that I changed for the better! Allow for change to come into your life, it fosters growth inside you. It makes you think a little differently,and we all need to think differently sometimes! Change can be small,  it can be as simple as changing the route you take to work, walking instead of driving somewhere, or simply LOVING yourself more!!  Simple and easy, that’s the way it should be! Change in nature doesn’t happen overnight, so you don’t need to BLOSSOM overnight either…..

I will close with a quote I love! I hope you enjoy it as well….   “What lies behind us, and what lies before us, are tiny matters compared to what lies within us”  Ralph Waldo Emerson

Happy New Year,New Beginnings,New Energies, more LOVE,new LOVE and dreams!

♥ I want so many things to happen in the new year, I am so excited that I keep jumping in and out of my seat… well maybe that is the coffee I just had?? No,No, I am EXCITED!  2009 promises to be a very powerful year for so many of us. What am I going to do to harness this power? I am going to pay more attention, more attention to my heart, more attention to my body and her language, and even more attention to my surroundings. I will also pay more attention to the energy that I surround myself with.

~I want only good, positive energy spiraling around me this year and beyond.

~I will take advice from friends. I should anyway, I have really great, smart, amazing friends that know what is good for me.

~I will learn to hula hoop just as good in the “opposite” direction as I do in my natural flow! I am learning that now so instead of getting frustrated I will just keep a positive attitude and a smile every time the hoop hits me in the face or slams on the ground!

~I need to create even more of what I used to call my “Abundance Manifestation Cards” . I have changed the name to the “Daily Deliciousness Cards” I have created a pack of daily cards that make you feel ever so delicious, EVERYDAY! They are yummy and warm and thoughtful and nurturing! I want to send them to SARK(an author I love) to see what she thinks and just to offer up my love and thanks to her!

~I need to get working on my other blog I started a year ago…. I  have many issues with it. No excuses though, I just need to work on it,people loved it… check it out at “firescenezine.com” I interview and blog and write story’s about fire performers, and why fire is such an amazing energetic force. Fire performance is an art form that I love! I love the shapes, colors,heat… all of it is so gorgeous to me. So if you want to be my next interview I would love for that to happen. Contact me through here, or FaceBook or tribe.net. I would love to get more motivated to do this again!

~ I want to learn to sew! I have a million great ideas and so much creativity but I don’t really know the first thing about this ‘art’. I want to keep it simple too.. I want to make leg warmers,arm cuffies, and head bands, I need help! Anyone out there want to teach me to sew?? I know I could get it, it’s just a matter of learning and then doing!

So there is my list of things I want. I want even more but these are important and will allow me to create even more magic! I was put on this earth to be magic, spread magic and create love so I am committed to this for the new Year.

I hope everyone finds their ‘MaGiC BlisS” this new year…

I am becoming very ‘artful’ in living on the cheap! I am an out of work creative gal who can make due with very little. I am smart,blissful, and again am very creative!I am trying to surround myself with pure abundance, happy people, love and only positive thoughts about this weird time in my life! Just 3 months ago I was making money(not much) but was able to be in control of the things I wanted to do. Being without is a learning experience. I also have more patience. I have to! I’m blessed to have a wonderful friend in my life that is allowing me stay stay with her, rent-free, until I get back to where I need to be! How did I get so lucky!

I am doing a lot of “work” on me right now as well as writing a lot and being open to suggestions from friends on my situation. I am stretching everyday. I get to hula hoop as much or as little as I want! I am getting better at hooping in the “opposite direction”! Not only can I hoop the other way that seems wrong to me, I can do some dancing, jumping and “breaks’ with the hoop that way too! So, my new found time is becoming very useful to me! I am not letting myself get bored! I’m staying in touch with people more and giving more compliments. It’s odd how we forget about these small important things when we are so busy with “work”. I am working everyday but not getting paid to become a better human,being!We all can do this, even on a daily basis; just surround yourself with love, positivity and abundance! I am and I am happy! I could be dwelling I could be “freakin’ out” but instead I am allowing myself to learn lessons, go within myself and ask what I want and need and in turn am loving my friends and family even more!  It feels good to be able to ‘feel’ so much!  Now if my feelings could pay off a bill….
