What are YOUR successes??

Someone asked me "What are your successes??" I stumbled for a bit but then I came to realize that we all have successes EVERY DAY... We all start each day with a new CLEAN SLATE ... We need to make it a point to remember ...

Our lives should be lived as though we are able to do, be, or create anything we would like ... Because God gave us the power, knowledge and minds to do so ...  

So take each day and be thankful, grateful and excited for the newness that each of our days brings us ..., 

Aloha & A Hui Hou!!! 

Timing.....

Timing .... is EVERYTHING... as they say... 

I have just been able to actually sit down and realize.. I guess more TAKE NOTICE, of how things just "seem to fall in place."  I am a totally "ROUTINE" person as I have gotten older.. as when things change my memory doesnt seem to check in soo lately its just been crazy when you're used to following a certain routine... and something changes.  I tend get frustrated... but I've learned through these last few days... that I have been traveling .. Ive traveled alone.  This was a bit scary I must admit....  but this time it was totally planned well.  Then almost missing my last of five flights... and to run ... taking a train, two escalators, and an elevator.. but made it.  If I would have missed it ... I wouldnt have felt that bad.. as I was traveling alone.. and just could have taken the next flight and upon arriving ... there was more things to handle than I really cared to.... but like I said... it was good I was alone.  

I guess what my revelation is ... that no matter what WE think or how WE think things should go... and try to push for it .. if things dont seem to happen that way.. instead of getting all frustrated and upset.. we have to just roll with things ... and understand the God has a plan..  and things do happen for a reason.. 

Enjoy each day and what it brings... be open to God's plans and listen.... 

A Hui Hou!!! 

I often ponder....

I often ponder my desire to write... especially after listening to the interview with Oprah and JK Rowling... , the first billionaire woman author of the Harry Potter series... Although I have only read a portion of her first book...I am intrigued to really make it a point to at the least read the first book through and through...

I do have a wondering imagination.. and a yearn to create .. whether its painting, drawing and yes writing...  one might think.. that if my desire to write was so strong.. my blog here would have many posts.... you're probably right... but dont get me wrong ... I actually think about "writing" in every sense of the word pretty much all the time....  I also think about "Carrie" in the Sex and the City series/movies... and how she sits down at her laptop... to record her thoughts formed throughout the day.... talking about her opinions .... ideas ... etc.  I really think this would be such fun and a tremendous creative outlet for me ...  I'm a bit tired and exhausted thinking about all of these ideas .... and more frustrated that I really haven't put them in motion... hmmmm.... maybe this my final realization... watching this interview.... if all of these once "ordinary" people... women and men.... were just like the rest of us... just without the bank accounts.!!!  Some were even on public assistance,.. working in basic jobs,... single parents raising children alone, literally not knowing where their next meal is coming from... and all it takes is inspiration, imagination, a creative mind, drive, determination and time.  So with people like JK Rowling and Oprah ... and all of the people who came from nothing ... this really inspires me...!!  After all we do live in America... where ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE .... supposedly...

I am planning on making my blogging a habit... along with starting a manuscript for a Best Seller... I know I've mentioned my blogging before... but .. after all, I have to start somewhere.. I'm thinking I should be reading and digesting writing prompts, ideas, and listening to interviews like the Oprah interview with JK Rowling... and keeping a positive attitude.  I also try to be truly "thankful" for all that I have already.. not material things .. but the things in life that are most meaningful.. love, marriage, my daughter, my faithful Cocker Spaniel, love for creativity and my art... things that money cant buy.

So right now, this moment I am going to stop sitting around .. and get going here.. holding on and let my creativity take a beautiful journey...  Aloha & A Hui Ho....

This is just way too cool......!!!

Wow, this is really just way tooo cool!!  I really feel like Carrie in Sex in the City... ! without or maybe not as many shoes...

This is really something that I've always thought about doing.. but never imagined I could come close... kind of like a columnist in a newspaper.. maybe even similar to a Dear Abby with a dash of Erma Bombeck/George Carlin if you will..

I hope everyone will enjoy my postings and ponderings.. It really does make a difference to write things down.  I am currently reading a super great book.. maybe you fellow bloggers would enjoy it as well.. "Write it Down, Make it Happen" by Henriette Anne Klauser.  I really think there is something to this.  I just makes things real when you actually write them down.  Gets them out there..!

I really love this time in the evenings... when all is quiet....you can hear everyone breathing in their own special way.  I love to look out my window on the peaceful deep dark ocean ... with the moonlight shinning down upon it the way it does.. everything is so calm allowing thoughts and dreams to be created.  We all take for granted these simple things in life... my feisty Cocker Spaniel.. laying at my feet breathing so quietly and restful.

Have you ever stayed up all night .. just flipping the channels ... looking for something to take your interest.. there sure are alot of weird things on late in the evening...  and so many infomercials!!! You can be totally free from debt to owing the world including your first born in just a few hours.. 

Well I really should retire .. my head is a little overwhelmed with the days events and entering this whole new world of blogging.. cant wait to see what tomorrow will bring.. join me for the events of a new day.. A hui ho!
