Make Love, Where There is None

To make love… where there was none…  ♥ Alchemy (Lyric) – Above and Beyond
To bring about change for love, growth, health, self improvement or whatever…we all want a little bit of magic or that special chemical reaction that instantly gives us what we want. Believing that you can have it is the magic, but you have to take action.  Belief without action is really just wishful thinking.
You see people that have what you want, but before they had it – they didn’t.
If you want more Love in your life, then love another, and love all people.  If you want health and fitness, then start eating whole grains, vegetable, and start exercising.  It’s not really rocket science, we all start out beginners, so just start!  Start whatever it is that you want to change.  Just make the first move – take that first step towards whatever direction that you want. Your belief will enable you to keep taking those steps. So, no matter how small it is, just take it, then take another and another.  Eventually you’ll get the change you want.
Just a thought…
Love, Goldi

Enjoying the Moments

Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present. – Albert Camus

 

How easy is it to take for granted some of life’s most simple pleasures.  Focusing our attention on our list of things that need to be done.  Sometimes we’re so focused on what we feel we need to do, we forget to look up to see, the opportunity for a conversation with our child, an unexpected lunch with our spouse, or the chance to visit with a friend.

What will be most important to us in the future, will be to have the people we love, to be around us.  Money, fame, and the like will be nothing, if you have no one to share it with.

Lets find a way to enjoy all moments, finding joy in what we do.  This is life, this is our life, let’s choose to live it well.

Busy enjoying the moments…

Love, Goldi

Happy Thoughts All Day Long

So the last few days I’ve been challenged, affected in a way that my mind couldn’t perceive, but was felt by my body.  As I sat here today writing literally for four hours I was unable to come up with anything to post.  My husband called, still at work and on his 13 plus hours there, not surprisingly – he sounded tired.  He called to say that he had another good hour or so to go, and I not wanting to delay him any longer,  hesitantly said…, I’ve been having trouble writing my blog today.  Do you have any words of wisdom?  He said, hmmm lets see, I’ve been having Happy Thoughts All Day Long, what were they… I hope that helps. I said yes, yes it did!  I instantly became clear that IS what I wanted to write about.   Not so much about the happy thoughts, even though you know that I believe in them. I became clear from his focus, and positive presence, felt even from a distance.  He took the time to answer my question happily, and when he said the words Happy Thoughts All Day Long his voice changed and he sounded better himself. I perked up hearing him perk up.

So remembering now, that helping ourselves also means reaching out once in a while, and asking for help. Combined with the knowledge that we need to continue to surrounding ourselves with good people, and place ourselves in a good environments. It will continue to help us long after we’ve forgotten…

Wishing you today, tonight, this weekend, and really forever…the total encompassing of good people and places and Lot’s of Happy Thoughts!

Love, Goldi
