MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

SOUL DANCE

You know what: Life is short. TOO short NOT to chase your heart or take the risk on something or someone you can’t stop thinking about. Who cares what the world might think? It's YOUR heart, your happiness, your future, your POTENTIAL. So let loose your soul to dance in the rain and have companion souls join you, beside you or to their own tune, each of you creating a beautiful melody no one but those who “see” might understand.

If you want it, SAY so. Forget timidity or fear. Put aside "what ifs" and "buts" and set yourself out there where you can be SEEN. Yes, you might be vulnerable, but in vulnerability you open yourself up to an abundance of blessings you might never have thought could be.

You want to let your soul dance? Then LET it dance. And pull those you wish to dance with alongside you, feel the magic in the moment and make it last a lifetime not forgotten. Hold onto the moments granted, for you know not when they might be gifted again.

Life is too short to be spent in hesitation, wondering, wanting but never doing. Before you know it the moment could be gone and you never know if with it with it your chance for something great or “once in a lifetime”. So, LISTEN to your heart. OPEN up your soul and set it free to DANCE throughout your life with a smile in its step and a glow that spreads light wherever it reaches, rippling through life making the difference that only YOU can make.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

JUST BE HAPPY

JUST BE HAPPY. It can be a “hard” thing to ask sometimes. Especially of those who seek it. Yet only when we understand that happiness is something that cannot be sourced OUTside of ourselves and that it can only occur when we allow ourselves to be completely IN the present, can we truly BE happy.

The world can be falling apart. The most terrible and traumatic things can be happening. The circumstances we find ourselves in can seem out of control and beyond our own. The events occurring can be testing and questioning everything we ever believed in and thought we knew. Yet through it all we CAN be happy.

“Happy” is not just for when life is “perfect” and wonderful and full of love and light. It is not just for when things seem to be working in our favour and we are blessed beyond imagining. It is not just for when we find ourselves smiled upon and sought out for recognition of achievement. It is not just for when we think life could not be any better.

Being happy is not reserved for the “good” times only and one CAN find and be happy during the “bad” as well. Being happy is about being fully aware of who YOU are and ACCEPTING that you are at whatever point you are in your life. It is believing whatever is within your control you CAN change and trusting in Him for the rest. It is knowing that you are NEVER alone even if it might seem like it. It is being completely in the PRESENT and giving yourself permission to take joy in the moment of even the simplest things.

Being happy is not conditional. It does not require everything to be “just right”. It does not have to wait for everything to “fall into place”. It can be whenever and wherever. YOU can be happy at ANY moment. It is a choice like any other. A simple shift in mindset.

You “need” nothing to be happy. You just need YOU. HERE. NOW. Do it for YOU. JUST BE HAPPY.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE

Life is full of CHALLENGES. It is full of OBSTACLES. It is full of DISBELIEVERS. It is full of OPPOSITION. For every supporter you have, there is a hater. For every beautiful moment in time, there is a memory that crushes your soul. For every mountain climbed, there is a canyon to cross. For every star that is born and rises, there is another that falls from the heavens and dies in a blinding flash of light.

Do not allow the negatives in life to outweigh the POSITIVES. Do not let the moments of sadness overcome the incredible periods of HAPPINESS. Do not let the challenges prevent you from living life COMPLETELY.

LOVE life, no matter what happens. Love what you DO. Love the fact that every day is a NEW chance to start OVER. Love those who love you and never let a moment go by that is opportunity to let them KNOW how much they mean to you.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE. COMPLETELY.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

BLINK OF AN EYE

Life can change in a heartbeat; a minute moment in time that you might not even notice. In the blink of an eye your entire WORLD can change; made into something you do not recognize. Life is UNpredictable, unwavering in its sudden changes in course; determined to see how much we value what we claim as precious and how we hold up when it is gone.

Those we love – SHOW them every day. Those we can never bear to lose – make sure they KNOW it. Those who cause pain – FORGIVE even if you never forget. Those who “bandaid” our hearts – LOVE them.

Life is fleeting and in less than the time it takes the wind to whistle through the leaves of a tree, faster than you could even see light flash through time, YOUR timeline can change in ways you might never have imagined. So make sure you make the MOST of the time you have with the ones you have, before they are taken from you, as leaves torn from a tree in a tornado.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

BE YOURSELF

It can be hard to realize that to be truly HAPPY you must be YOU. You – as you ARE, in your ENTIRETY. No hiding aspects of yourself away, but letting the world know by seeing how BRILLIANTLY you can glow – the way you have let others see you glow and the way you unconsciously glowed before from the touching of another soul against your own.

In that time you were happy – completely and unadulteratedly HAPPY. You were FREE to be you, with those who only longed to see more of the soul you had started to let peek out at the world. Somehow, between then and now, it ran away and hid again, and now you have to STOP that and let it back OUT – you need to OPEN up your trembling heart to the winter frost to find the sun and its warmth.

NO more hiding. No more shying AWAY. You have so MUCH potential inside you. You have so many DREAMS, so many HOPES and plans for the future. Let them OUT. Give them VOICE and see that there IS support – there are those who want to see your soul bloom like it did once before, and grow beyond that to FLOURISH.

Just be YOU. Not what the world wants you to be. Not what others want you to be. Not what you think you should be. Just be what you ARE and be UNashamed of it – do not forget your beauty, your wings, your UNIQUENESS and everything about you that stands you apart from anyone and everything else. Let your soul back out and simply let yourself BE.

When you can do that, KEEP on doing it. LIVE your dreams. Let the joy of refinding the passion that had slipped away infuse back into everything you do. Let the smile in your soul sparkle from the depths and light the smile of another. Give yourself permission to FLY again and GROW ever more into the person He intended you to be. Let the HAPPINESS become a way of life again.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

NEVER TOO LATE

Dawn. Night fade away. Snow melting on the grass. Sunshine spreading rays of light over earth.

As the darkness recedes, let it take with it your fears. As the snow melts, let it dissipate the burdens that [might] rest upon your soul. As the sunshine illuminates, let it touch your heart and find the smile hidden inside.

There is so much history, but there is also a future. The past gave much love and happiness, but also great pain and sorrow. The future has not yet been written, but what we let walk with us into it will assist in determining how it plays out. Joy is found within and happiness is created from that joy, understanding that the choice is always yours and freeing your soul.

It’s never too late to be happy. All the time, no matter what hurdles life throws for us to leap over. It’s never too late to let that real smile out. Open and genuine, a lifetime of experience reflected in the eyes glowing above. It’s never too late to let yourself be the “child” of your soul. To let it dance and shine in the world, playfulness and wonder abound in every action.

You know what happiness feels like. You know what it looks like. You know what it can do.

It’s never too late to have and be and keep “happy”. Make the choice today and feel the change in your soul, the sudden lightness in your heart, the gentle calming of your mind. Let your smile face the world as you prepare to embrace the day and watch how your life changes.

2012 | Day 336: THIS MOMENT

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

THIS MOMENT

This moment is your life right NOW. It is the BLESSING you have been given. It is the SMILE in your heart. It is the LOVE you are surrounded with. It is everything from the past and present culminating in this single MOMENT, a moment you might never have imagined you would ever have, but now it is HERE. It is for YOU.

Be HAPPY for this moment. Be GRATEFUL that He deemed you worthy of having it. Be APPRECIATIVE of the pain and heartache it took to bring you to this place, for withOUT it you would not have grown as you did and would never have allowed it opportunity to happen.

See the path TO this moment. Know that everything you endured was for a REASON, and that reason is NOW. That reason was to create in you a new HOPE, uncover denied and long-hidden desires and DREAMS and transform you into the person you were MEANT to be, who COULD accept that this moment IS real and for you.

Be HAPPY in this moment, for right now, in THIS moment, this moment is YOUR life, and it is REAL!

2012 | Day 277: THE STORY OF YOU

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

THE STORY OF YOU

There is only ONE you. Only YOU know your own life better than anyone else. Only you know JUST what you have been through in your lifetime. Only you know what you have and to what extent you have to OFFER life. Only YOU can give what it is you have to offer.

There is only one YOU. Do NOT let the world make you into someone else. Do not let them try and turn you into a copy of another. Do not let them take away who YOU are. Do not let them wipe away the wonderful story of YOU.

There IS only one you. You are UNIQUE. You are SPECIAL. You are PRECIOUS. You are a BLESSING.

There is so much MORE to you than what the world has seen. There is so much more TO be seen. There is so much more to be EXPERIENCED. There is so much more waiting FOR you.

Your life can be lived by no one BUT you. Your life can not be told by anyone but YOU. You and ONLY you can be you and who you were MEANT to be. No one can or will EVER be able to replace you.

YOU ARE SIGNIFICANT and you have a STORY TO TELL. That story is your own. OWN it. You have come so FAR and you have so far to GO. Only YOU can traverse the footprints destined for your life.

Make EVERY step in your journey count for something. Make every action PURPOSEFUL. Make every life you TOUCH see hope and light and happiness. Make your life MEAN something and create as much positive change as you possibly can.

No one else can LIVE your life. Be proud and confident in knowing WHO you are. Embrace your purpose and be HAPPY to be alive. Make your journey a story WORTH telling.
