Enough with texting!!…and go back to when phones were attached to coiled cords, when you made sure you showed up on time otherwise you couldn’t reach them, when giving a quarter for a phone call seemed a lot more valid, and hearing someone’s voice meant something important to you.

We’ve come so far only to get further. When will you lean in and tell someone you love them?

If the sun doesn’t come out to play today…how can you find the sizzle right where you are?

Go to the mirror, look at yourself

and say

“I am sexy, I am sexy, I am sexy”

How many times do you have to say it in order to feel it?

Good MORNING Sunshine…

Everything in life is like playing a game. There are competitive players, there are the thinkers, there are the people who need a beer, and some follow all the rules.

Regardless of how you play it, can you find the FUN in it for you?

How do you Play Your Life?

I was so touched to have three lovely Filipino grade 8 ladies come up to me to say how proud they were to have me at their school representing our Philippine culture. Twisting my tongue to dialogue in Tagalog with them was really humbling yet exciting. I am proud to be Filipino.

Look out for all the Filipino events going on this June for Philippine Independence.

Go to a book, your library or any book near by you, 

Ask yourself a question

Flip through the book until you’re ready to stop

Read what was meant for you to read

In theory, our thoughts are magnets to our answers. The more you think about certain things, the more you will see the answers in your life. 

I’d love to know what you read today…

Good morning!

Turn on some music, go anywhere you feel comfortable to let loose: your bedroom, your bathroom, in the shower, in your car…

AND WIGGLE

Wiggle from your bum, wiggle from your thumb,

Wiggle with your friends or maybe just one

Wiggle with your landlady or even with your boss

Wiggle around the corner, but make sure you don’t get lost

Remember,

Wiggle from the top and right down to your toes

‘Cuz getting silly and maybe a little naughty, is a just secret place you can always go!

Happy Wiggling over your Hump Day. 

Take someone in your life you feel completely opposite to and ask them what makes them tick? 

Find how their answers may relate to your life. 

Opposites do attract…It’s the law.

Tell me how it went! 

I went out to Crab Park for an hour to pick up garbage and cigarette butts in the sand. To what I thought was going to be a simple activity to make up a consequence turned into a new perspective.

Even though there were so few people at the park, I had a moment of embarrassment. Imagine this girl with BBQ tongs and a big plastic bag picking up butts and old wine paper bags in the rain. I spent some time thinking about different excuses to explain what I might have been up to. Uhmm, it’s an art project? Ew, No.

Then it switched into this game to see how sharp my focus can be to see every single butt in the sand. Like a ninja I swiftly nabbed every butt I saw like Karate Kid and his chop sticks. I started to feel good for what I was doing. I then moved to my next phase. The ” I should take a picture and tell everyone about my deeds” moment. I pulled out my phone, looked at it, and oh but of course it was dead, my phone was dead. What could this mean? It was obvious i was to remain humble. So I continued on.

My one bag became 3 bags by the end of the hour. I threw them away and walked on back home. This is what took me by surprise, in an hour, just one hour, I not only caused change in my community, I caused change in myself.

I couldn’t help noticing every piece of garbage on the way back home. I picked up what could and recognized where doing things differently sometimes is the only way to evoke change.

What are you going to do differently? What did you learn about yourself?

May 19, 2012

I am amazed to see that I am approaching half of this year already. They said that when a child is 2 years old, one year is actually half of their life. When we are 10, a year would feel like 1/10 of my life. Time does fly.

I started to fear this sense of time slipping from under me. I wondered when it would all just make sense. I remember having that feeling of being in my dream and I want to see clearly, but I must have had a lot of eye gunk, it was affecting how I could see in my dream. Little did I know that even though there was something out there I longed to see, sometimes the answers that were clearest were right in front of me. Right in front of my face. I spent about one month reflecting on my goals. Listening, questioning, and most of all, surrendering. It was my time to start working on the Me. For about 2 years I’ve worked hard on accepting myself physically, dealing with trust, dealing with what I was meant for, dealing with my importance. I wanted to learn more about the Me that wasn’t living to prove to people that I am this and that, and different because of that, and not just a dancer because I like such, or why not do everything so more people can like me because… So what was important to me? 

I came to the conclusion after years of searching, it was all going to come to me when I had faced enough of my fears that I can start loving myself for all of what I was meant for. That journey to look straight in to my soul and accept wherever I was in that moment, in that time, in my physical reality. That, I learned, has been the path way to my Essence. Living from here I now know…is timeless. 

Go-carting for my sunny sunshine Sandy Bo Bandy!!! Fast riding, bbq’ing, and beaching!! Happy Saturday.
