“I release all disappointment, from my mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional bodies, cause I know that spirit guides me, and love lives inside me. Thats why today I take life as it comes” India.Arie

This is one of my favorite quotes, and lately its been my mantra. With so much going on around me, everything moving at the speed of light, it takes some real concentration to slow things down, but it’s possible. I get so wrapped up in…everything. Gossip, drama, ugliness, negativity. People say its like watching a train wreck…hard to turn away. The difference with this is even when you’re just enjoying the show, you internalize some of that stuff. You compare your situation to others and without knowing it you cross the line of humility. Being humble is what makes life worth living, in my opinion. Slow down.

Thus far 2014 has been about health and love…self love. I’m learning to appreciate the beauty that is within me. There are so many ugly things I can list about myself, so many past mistakes that I have made that I could be ashamed of, but what good does that do me? Instead I’ve taken the time to appreciate who I am, what I am, appreciate the words that form in my brain and come out on my lips. The human psyche is a delicate thing, I have to pay attention to what goes into my body, mind, soul and spirit. There is nothing at all wrong with taking some time for yourself, to reevaluate the direction your life is going in. Reevaluate the people that you are allowing in your precious circle. Revelauate yourself. Forward movement.
