Life happens and there is always a lesson to be learned. 

I had replacement surgery on both knee in the last quarter of 2022 and fell a few days ago for the first time since the surgeries. 

As I laid there, in my head I could hear my coach saying, “Well, how long do you want to stay here?” This malady became an excellent opportunity to tweak and apply her teaching and that of my physical therapist. 

From day one, my main goal in physical therapy has always been to get up from the floor totally unassisted. I learned many techniques to get up and quickly selected one to change my situation. 

I placed a towel next to my knee as I rolled over onto it and shifted my weight on my knee as I grabbed the sink and pulled myself up. 

Yes, I hollered as I rose to my feet but I stood up. 

I STOOD UP! 

I stood up and I could feel a relief wash over my body. 

I felt lighter because I finally shed the fear I’d been holding onto since the surgeries. That fear was stronger than I knew but it was gone. 

FINALLY GONE! 

I learned many lessons from this experience. 

I got what I wanted. The goal of self-sufficiency in my physicality was achieved even though I didn’t initially realize it. 

I even started walking more confidently after that. The spring in my step was BACK. 

The next day I walked into the physical therapy facility and hugged my therapist. I cried as I told her about my fall, how grateful I was for her and all the things she teached me that worked when I needed them the most. She started crying too but she was happy to have this knowledge to start her day! 

Sometimes your BIGGEST pain can bring you the BIGGEST JOY! 

Stay open and allow your lemons to give you lemonade. 

We all have a light that emits a glow inside of us; it’s our own little pilot light.  

There are situations that happen to us and our responses regulate the light. 

This light doesn’t exist on the physical plane but the spiritual. 

We have the ability to extract different kinds of light; to strengthen, to heal, to convert and always to improve. 

This light can be nurtured once discovered and cultivated closely to be magnificent. 

Thru time and visualization we can believe we see it until we actually can. 

With practice we generate more of our own light and radiate it out over distances or pinpoint its energy with purpose. 

This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine. Let it shine. Let it shine. 

Today’s my birthday! 

I learned a lot this past year and today I am temporarily dismounting my goals and my usual hustle and bustle. 

I’ll be enjoying the day watching my favorite funny movies, journaling and being grateful for another year around the sun. 

I am also grateful for all of you and the opportunity to make a difference in your lives! 

Thank you so much for spending some of your day with me! 

I LOVE YOU! 

Are you an impenetrable force refusing to be moved? 

Have you taken a stand and drawn your own line in the sand? 

All throughout history people have sat down or stood up to make a point. 

Allow a standing stance to convey whatever your point is at this place in time. 

This is a reflection of your authentic self shining through. 

Living a life you love includes feelings that occasionally create tears whether they’re from sorrow or joy. They are the highest and best emotions of your positive authentic self. 

Both are mechanisms of release or letting go and a very useful tool in manifesting. 

Duplicating and maintaining this level of emotion throughout the day is a very real spiritual goal. It is the true alignment of body, mind and soul. 

This level of emotionality allows you to flow into your true purpose that transcends time, your current body and all forms of tangible materials in this realm. 

This real power is a significant part of your development that determines who you really are far beyond what this world dictates. 

Connect with this feeling over and over again and allow yourself to follow along with it to its natural conclusion. 

Enjoy the wisdom there to better your life here and now. 

The voices will reveal on the map the entrance to this leg of your journey. 

Listen Well! 

We are an ever evolving species that is constantly transforming; from one moment to the next. 

Being in tune with the infinite; yields creations that are masterpieces. 

We are not awaiting approval and know no additional work is required. 

Recognizing our value is also transformative and acknowledging this fact elevates us to another level. 

Transformation is not just for butterflies but for us as spirits having a human experience. 

Spread Your Wings and Fly!
