They can because they think they can. – Virgil

The bird that sings before dawn, the farmer who plants a seed, the entrepreneur who starts a business, the individual who dines at a restaurant, are all forms of faith. The sun will rise, the seed will grow, the business will begin, and the food will be sustaining. We have faith on so many levels without question. We would never think that the sun may not rise, and stay up worrying night after night. Nor would we walk into a restaurant, sit down, order food, and begin to eat what we wonder might harm us.  Again, we believe and have faith without question.

It’s this faith, that we must believe in ourselves, without question.  That what we desire, we can do – we can!

I LOVE rainy days…

The best thing one can do when it’s raining is to let it rain.  ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I’m taking a few days off to relax and rejuvenate.  I’m on the East Coast of Florida… and it’s raining. When you take a trip to the beach you think of days and days of sunshine – bright – happy, fun, sun filled days.  Then the unexpected rain storm comes, with a forecast of showers for the next five days. Panic or sadness may start to set in, because its not what you expected – life it like that, disappointed in not getting what you want. The reality is, that what you have instead, may be better, or at least, a different kind of good. For instance, on this rainy day at the beach; I didn’t have to worry about getting a sun burn. I walked endlessly without ever becoming over heated. And, the beach seemed to be my own private sanctuary, in an area of towering buildings.

On this walk, in the quiet of my own private beach 😉 I tilted my face to the sky, and drank in a deep breath of fresh saltwater air. I took a moment to feel the tiny drops of cool rain.  I felt so alive,  calm, peaceful, and yet invigorated by the moment.  It was just the result I was hoping for, from my time on the beach.

“I am sure it is a great mistake always to know enough to go in when it rains.  One may keep snug and dry by such knowledge, but one misses a world of loveliness.” ~Adeline Knapp

Every day has its beauty – find the loveliness of your world…

Organic Soul

I’m not sure if my fears faced me or if I faced my fears… In my youth I merrily skipped around, unaware of anything that wasn’t beautiful. I felt secure in my home with my parents, and I lived in this fairy tale world in my mind – life was good. As I became older fears were dispensed to me.  “Prepare for the future.” “Beware” of so many things.  I became cautious, defensive; looking for the negative, so I could protect myself.

In reality, I created all that I feared.  My reasoning mind had told me I was doing all the “right” things, and now I realize that what I had thought of as my delusional youthful spirt, was the way I should have been living.  With joy in my heart, the fearlessness to do anything; and that I was protected in a way, that what wasn’t best for me, wouldn’t work out.

I wish I would have woke up to these facts so much sooner. My life would have flowed so much easier. I wouldn’t reason why this or that didn’t happen, or why this person or that person didn’t love me.  I wouldn’t of taken it personally. I would have faith that something better was in store for me. I guess I shouldn’t use the word “better”, because the people and opportunities that passed- were good, but they were not what was “just right” for me.

My organic soul is now living more simply, healthily, and close to natures flow.  Meaning that I still have goals, and wants, and desires…, and I’m taking steps and making effort to get to where I want, but if the door doesn’t open when I knock, I have faith that if I keep on knocking that the door that does open, will be what’s “just right” for me, or at least, lead me in the direction of where I need to go.

Remember to listen to your gut, follow your intuition, and stay organic and true to you!

PS… I know I’ve been away for a while, but I went through all my belongings, I’ve downsized, and moved.  It feels great – lighter, freeing!  Thanks for keeping with me!  With Love and Gratitude! Goldi
