Life is what you make it.....

Hello World....

(click here for sounds)

One of my FB friends posted a picture that says:

"I surround myself with people that force me to do better."

And that is something I have ALWAYS done because at some point in my life, my self-motivation has waned something terribly.  So I make myself do better by being around go-getters.  You can't sit back and chill when your friends are constantly morphing into their true butterfly selves!

I'm meeting folks from everywhere...social media is a beautiful thing!  One thing I'm getting more into here in "hotlanta" is modeling.  Check me out here.  Yes the nerves are there...I wanna do more singing but the nerves...uuugh...they keep holding me back....and THEEEEEEN tonight at a casting call for The Lyngale Agency I sat down and had a good conversation with a fellow 40+ beauty that I'd talked to before ya know just chit chat nothing serious and THEN tonight she told me her story.  She was going along in life, husband/kids and out of the blue at the end of her work day, her eyesight started fading....she's actually going blind because of some rare fluke of a genetic foolishness.  Still vibrant, still radiant, still loving life!  Still a mom, still a wife with an awesomely supportive husband.  I'm not going to call her name because it's her story to tell and when she does it'll be a book to read, I know I'll buy it.  But you see this convo happened at a casting call, the first time we met was at a model runway class.  She hadn't stopped living and here I am nervous due to just plain ole being scared, the genetic issues I have didn't dibilitate me to the point of not being able to move around.  My food intake, natural herbs and moderate exercises have worked for me.  I'm still able to walk, talk and do what I want and I'm too scared to live my life like I should.

The song you heard earlier said "Life is what you make it..." and dammit it is!  I am ashamed...so ashamed as well I should be.  And at this point/going forward I shall do better about living and not just existing!  I have NO excuses!

In conclusion..... Life is what you make it....make it GOOD!!!!!

((Hugs)) Peace and Blessings!!

Is it really this easy??

Hello World....

Life in 2015 has been awesome and interesting!

"Mister Man" is no longer.....  My hopeless romantic, nurturing personality sometimes allows me to dwell in situations longer than need be mostly because I always hope the situation goes back to the first feeling long after it's gone.  After awhile, being on the bottom of the priority list gets old, very old.  I think I had my fingers crossed that the whole "opposites attract" scenario would play out to be a groovy thing.  I finally figured out that I'm active and I like my guy to be active with me, maybe not 100% (because he has his own life) but 80% at least.  A concert here, a picnic there, couples stuff...oh well.  Problem solved and life has gotten a lot better.

After growing used to not having someone in your corner for a long period of time, having someone not only show up but show up and step right in place with just the mention of their presence wanting to be there..... (whew..long sentence) is sooooooo exhilirating and I'm grinning from ear to ear.  This really puts the definition of getting out of a wrong situation so the right one can begin.  I'm loving this scenario and at the same time I'm wondering "is it really this easy?".  And if so, whyyyyy the heck have I been dwelling on those with the ultimate "unavailable" status?  Was I scared of what could happen? Scared of change? What?  I do know that I have some professional changes to make so I'm not surprised if that's the case.  Yep, I'm working on me.

This week is special...in a few days I will be celebrating another year on this earth.  As the gospel song says "it's another day's journey and I'm glad...I'm so glad to be here..." and hmmmm (huge smile) I'll be celebrating with a new outlook.  It'll be a little awkward because this weekend I have a crazy dental appointment which might impair my eating. :-(  For this reason I celebrated with friends last weekend....I had a blast!  But this weekend (Saturday 3/21 to specific) I know with confidence that if I pick up the phone and request a quick date it'll happen, I won't be irritated for my birthday.
:-)  It's a beautiful thing.

This year WILL be awesome!  And again I'm thinking "is it really this easy?"  LOL.....

Well....I'm about to see!

Oh yes so the moral of this story is.....make a mistake, learn from that mistake while you're in it (because at that point you probably don't realize it's a mistake) and when you finally realize that you've made that mistake...GET OUT!  Get out of it and move on.  Lessons learned and try not to do it again.

Peace and Blessings....
