Magic Bliss

I have been a bit “dis-connected” from my blogging world and from my real world a bit too lately. I have had a storm of computer issues that sent my magical little machine into “sleepy land”. I would to say that she is completely up and running but she’s not…not quite. I have  a great friend who is a computer doctor, and did some ‘voodoo’ (and added a disc that runs it’s own operating system) so I could at least check my email, write my blogs and re-connect with folks in the land of Facebook. Weird how that became a part of my computering one day and now I enjoy getting in touch through that tool.

I realized yesterday that I feel a bit lost when I am not able to write my blogs. I view them as an on line journal and an on line public view into my head and how she (I) work. I like sharing things with people, be it just words, full stories or these blogs, they always teach me something about positivity and remind others to look for the positive in their own life daily. I like being a catalyst for others to look deeper into themselves or into their own world.

I have learned that I’ll only become a better writer or blogger as I keep this up daily (or try to daily). I get great feedback from friends that read my words. I love that very much!

I am going to jump off the subject of my blogging and into the subject of action. By ‘action’ I mean taking steps to create this life, to start a new project or acting upon a creative nudge you keep feeling from the bottom of your soul.

I am struggling a bunch these days with money. There are always potential issues with money, but right now I am feeling the effects of these money woes. I am realizing I have to separate myself emotionally from my money problems and keep reminding myself that I am NOT “lacking” in anything, just money, which is essentially paper.  I am still me, in fact I have come into myself even more because of this “problem”. I am re-learning skills, I am open to even more stuff to come my way. I am more available because I have more time. At first that was not the case. I was thinking about my money woes so much that I was “unavailable” for myself, and my friends. I kept closing myself off to opportunities that were LEAPING in front of me. Now that I have let all that attachment go, I am only attached to me and me only. I feel great being able to write those words. The friend who told me initially about detaching myself from the physical form of money and the lack that will keep arising from it, went through the same thing a while back. He is now in a great position in the field that he sorta fell in to, and is really “taking care of business”. It took a while for him and I know it will take a while for me as well to get back on my feet (financially), but if I look at my life without money, I truly like what I see!

I am hula hooping even more than I was a couple of months ago. Therefore I am getting better. I have always been a “hooper who dances”. Someone that can truly get her hoop groove on while there is music loudly thumping and bumping. I hoop to the beat, I have come to understand. I like that about me. But lately, like in the last 3 days I have started just hooping, and learning moves, saying to myself that I MUST learn this thing and turn into THIS thing…. I am liking the new ‘direction’ my hoop is going.  Lacking in one area (money) makes me soar in others (hooping). Yay for my eyes being open and my heart too!

I also decided while I am still looking for a job with actual hours, I need to become a part of something or use my time to help someone or at least be creative in some way. So I have been spending more time with my pens, paper, and cards AND volunteering with a great project. The project is called the “Habitats Environmental Project”, here is the website:  www.kricketskritters.com/habitats-project        I love what Kricket is doing with this project. So I decided I wanted to be more involved. I want to help her in a lot of different ways, including helping in her booths, taking photographs, picking up trash, writing press releases and the like. When it comes to projects and things of interest to me that are creative and crafty I really start paying attention. I love crafting! I am a re-crafting fool! Making cards out of old cards and paper are one of my favorite things. I love getting old photographs and piecing those together with other old and “found” things to create something new that will brighten up someone’s day! I could do this all the time, everyday….I need to! I enjoy putting my energy into things right now that are very low cost, very loving and will allow me to be creative.

I am also starting to help a friend who community gardens sprouting up all throughout the city. She is involved in a special thig, growing food for everyone in any space that allows for it! What a novel idea! There is so much “useless” space in any given city, why not turn the soil into good working dirt and plant food for people? This is great and it allows me to get my hands in the dirt AND I get at the same time! I don’t eat meat so this is perfect for me! Check out her web site and blog at calliopes-table.com. what a great idea, to be an urban farmer, that way you will have the best of both worlds!

Surrounding myself  with creative, loving and good-hearted people is what I want, what my soul needs to survive. I love this new direction of thinking and processing. I will need to keep it up. I know how it feels to allow the yuckiness in and take over my bright shining light, I don’t want that to happen any more. So I am using my time for only good things and spending it with only good people!

What a good way to start this amazing Friday; by writing in my blog and seeing the sunshine stream through my window.  How ever did I get so lucky?

Blissful, peaceful, loving day to all….
