Change, it's the best medicine for what ails you.

It's a day for new thoughts, and feelings. Take a moment to breathe in the beauty of life in an inspiring way. I am feeling God's amazing graces on my brain activity this morning and I am so thankful for him taking my "brain burdens" away so i can be clear in thought.

Now that I can see I have to say stagnation has taken over for too long. Too many moments have been spent with worry on my heart for others (empathy) and for myself being seen (ego).
In my opinion it seems we all have so much ego and not a lot of empathy. Why are we surrounding ourselves with energy that we know we don't want. I see often that people are trying to convince each other that their energies could mesh ........... Why? .......... Wouldn't it be so much better to find the people in life we truly connect with? There would be less time talking about ourselves (boosting the ego) and more time talking for collective consciousness. You wouldn't have to worry about changing who you are to fit different atmospheres, because you would be surrounded by people that love you just the way you are, shattering all need for any kind of expectations in your relationship. The expectations ruin it all. How can we ask anyone to change things in themselves when we aren't willing to look at those same things in our own lives?

What really helped me see this was being shown, by my beautiful neighbor, that irritation towards a person comes up because we see a mirror image of who WE are at that moment. Some might choose to react to this irritation by confronting the other person and asking them why they are choosing to do this. Other times we wait till later to create drama by talking about how this person wont change. I see drama as the favorite of many, including my own, until now. I never thought of looking to myself rather then being aggitated at another to see if I have ever done that same thing in my life. The answer (for me) is always yes, because now I can see that we are all one. All of us are experiencing and expressing the same emotions so instead of hiding from them lets put it out there and help one another feel though what we need without judgment. My neighbor helped me to see that we should bless the people we were once agitated with, because they showed us something that we didn't pick up on in our energy. For instance how many of you have gotten upset because someone cut you off when you were driving? If you have ask yourself if you have ever cut someone off is the answer yes? I say this because maybe you never forgave your own heart for making this mistake, and if we haven't forgiven ourselves every time we see it in another person we will feel upset. (Upset, irritation, agitation, these are all words that resonate with me, but words can be tricky so if those they don't apply too you simply replace them with words that fit the energy of your life better.) Once we make this change to stop blaming others and focus on our own intent we wont be drawing in the same lessons over and over, thus no more stagnation.

I feel content knowing this and thankful that my mind, at this time, was able to receive. We all can do this if we are willing to, all it takes is a little reprogramming and some love!

So until the next time
our paths cross live, love, and be joyous!

Lauren and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.....And How I Turned It Around!

Today is the day!

I realized this as I was starting to feel anxiety for the "ump-teenth" time. I said 'Lauren, you can sit here and feed this energy out to the universe and only receive the negative back, or today you could do something completely different!"

See I am a sensitive soul, and because of this so many energies seek out time to shed their burden onto my heart. I am ok with this usually............almost always............ok so maybe not as much as I use to be, but this is why I have started a blog, or what I would like to call my release. I needed to put out there how I feel. I need to know at times I am heard too. I can see myself in the actions of others, and choose to be different. So many though (including myself at times) choose to be the same and consume others with their negativity just to feel better . Why not just learn? Why take that awkward moment that usually lasts only a few minutes and turn it into a lifetime of repressed feelings. I have seen that when I speak my mind to others, even if they say they are ready to receive 99% of the time they are not ready. I say now is the time or "Today is the day."

I am ready to shed my skin and speak my truth. I am ready to love on our creator and be surrounded by the light of love. I am ready.

I have collected my "peace of mind" and lit the sage of life, and now it's time to put these thoughts to action. If your with me let this page be something that you can freely express your heart on, and together we can all find the peace and prospective that we truly need.

Till the next time our paths cross live, love, and be joyous!
