Passion, Pain, Pleasure

Passion is an amazing tool that lives inside of all of us. It is our passion that drives us into most of the things that we endeavor on this journey. Passion is that thing inside of us that attaches to our thoughts and gives them the fuel to turn mere ideas into reality.It is the silent urge that screams "oh so loudly" in our actions.

I am convinced that our passions are at the root of our pain as well as our pleasures. We can be passionately in pain or passionately in pleasure. Pain passion comes from a place of hurt..it at times can force us to act..(good or badly) just to soothe the pain. Pleasure passion is derived from a need place-- a place that needs something to feel good. When we can come to know what type of passion is driving us..we can begin to channel our passions and filter them through God's plan for our lives. It merely takes operating from a place of " how may I serve " and then allowing your passion to take that idea and expand it into something that not even you knew was a possibility.

History has taught us that passion is necessary--it is in the moments of passion that wars have been waged and the greatest loves have been ignited.And without war and love..change cannot happen. At the core of all change--their lies someones unbridled passion.

Passion can be pleasurable, painful or both..it is the yin and yang of passion that makes it such an enigma. Sometimes to get to change we have to experience the pain and pleasure of passion.  We must allow our passions to carry us into unchartered territory. And fearlessly know in our hearts that no matter the outcome, we are in the midst of living from our true selves.

The goal on this journey is to allow ourselves to operate from our true selves. And when we can attach this knowingness to PASSION, we are then able to experience " living out loud".

Go Forth and Do Amazing Things This Week!

Only YOU can make YOU Happy!

Sometimes a stranger's words can resonate with us on a deep level. As I was going through my day I ran into a stranger that said to me in a random conversation that " Only you can make you happy" This resonated with me on a lot of levels, it stopped me in my tracks and forced me to become present in the spirit of his words. Sometimes we can become so entrenched in attempting to make others happy that we neglect to tap into what makes us happy.And forget that we are only capable of finding our own happiness. Sometimes our happiness can become lost in serving others. And sometimes we can find that same happiness in the act of serving. This paradox allows us to not become too self-serving. When we can find the balance between serving ourselves and others, we can find the essence of  truly being happy. Happiness is a state that is only designed by YOU. When we can see happiness in the smallest/largest thing ie., the treees' blooming, the sun shining, having food an

Outlaws

Outlaws are defined as people who have been thwarted from the family unit, because of  some perceived broken family laws. Sometimes becoming an outlaw can be the best experience one could ever experience. It forces one to define boundaries and to never allow anyone to cross them again. It is a period of assessing and reassessing and finding out who you are and who you are not. It allows you to see more clearly and to become more of yourself. One can render themselves a door mat for people to walk all over-- if they never set boundaries, Setting and maintaining boundaries are an important part of developing healthy relationships. In the moments of setting boundaries , it can be very lonely, people may turn away because you no longer allow free reign to your space and time. Or due to growth you no longer respond as they like. Don't be afraid of being lonely or alone when it means that you are in possession of yourself.  Especially when you are walking in your truth. Being in the
