Baggage: Good for traveling but sometimes we end up in the lost luggage department....

For those who have not heard my beautiful husband Mason and I will be moving to Seattle, WA this summer. We are very excited for our new path, and are embracing the unknown of what this amazing life has to offer!

I think that in any move, or any coming of a new year, we tend to process. Can I do better? What would I change?...and on and on it goes. For me living in the same place for such a long time has it's advantages and disadvantages. I have cherished living in Colorado with people who I love so deeply. I feel blessed that we have all watched each other grow. We have seen one another through hard times that we thought would be never ending, and through the happiness that filled our hearts when tragedy passed. In my own heart I know I have become a very different energy and in becoming this sometimes it is hard for others to not live in the memory of who you were, and embrace who you are now. Since we only attract in life the people who mirror what we are I am excited for the opportunity to meet people who can see me for who I am now.

This last year of time has been by far the hardest year for Mason and I.....I should rephrase that..... This has been a year of immense growth for us. Not only in our love for each other but in our strength to say yes to life, and no to the situations that would take advantage of our love. We have a choice everyday to listen to our intuition. So often we deny what we know is right and replace it with the notion (or expectation) that people will see us for who we are, and that we can trust them for who they are. Why set ourselves up for this? Why listen to what people think you should do, who you should be, how you should act? If we all pressure each other to conform to be this zombie nation what kind of impact will we make? How will our children grow up to trust who they are?

I wish that we all could see, including me, that only you know who you are. We question this everyday with every statement we hear, and every vision we see. Is this right? Will people like me? In all reality why don't we trust that who we are is just right. That these events we experience in life are all right on schedule. I think it is the hardest to feel this when we are in pain. So often this pain occurs because we shielded who we truly are to "gain trust," until one day we slip and show our authentic self. Why is it so wrong to let your emotions flow?

I have spent most of my life questioning who I am based on the reactions of others, but all reactions aside....I love who I am. I think all of us would love who we are physically and mentally if we let our worries go. If we grew up only seeing our own face in the mirror, hearing own own thoughts, experiencing life in our own way we wouldn't know how to judge ourselves. There would be no commercials showing us what to eat, no company's telling us what to wear, no thoughts of am I too young to know this, or to0 old to try this. There would only be you and the universe.....no ego and no judgment....but this is not the case. So I want to put out there that we can all try to remember how to love ourselves again. Remember that if energy can impact your life to question who you are that channeled in the right way it can also impact to believe in who we are again. I encourage you to let each other shine. I mean how many of us have just conformed to liking someone elses opinion just because we didn't want to feel awkward expressing that we felt something different?

Different is magnificent and in knowing this you can find out everyday how you can grow to be more true to who you are and accept that the energy you have been given in this life is beautiful.

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