Rain dance

Rain never hurt nobody

Rain cleanses the pain

Tears will also do the same

Just dance in the rain.

Dance and cry 

Laugh and sigh

Flowers survive

So will you and I.

Recognize your pain

Dance in the rain

Acknowledge that it's real

Go ahead and feel what you feel.

Move past the turmoil, disappointments and pain

Remember the sunshine

comes after the rain and the 

Rainbow appears after you've

danced in the rain.

How often have you beat yourself up thinking that making a life-changing decision is bad? It's not a bad thing, even if the decision turns out to appear 'wrong' in the beginning. Change is what it's about. Change is natural. Oftentimes, we think sticking around, hanging on to something dead serves some noble purpose, when in actuality it does not! What it causes is a slow, miserable, unaccomplished arena, where growth is almost impossible and survival is what it becomes versus genuinely living and that's the decision that is always 'wrong' - Only you know what's dead in your environment, and only YOU can make a decision to make a change in your own life. Your ideas, courage and life depends on YOU making a decision! - What do you need to change today?♥

(“Change is not a threat, it’s an opportunity. Survival is not the goal, transformative success is.” - Seth Godin)

Life really is only a test.....

 Life is a test, so don't be so hard on yourself as you journey. Most people are getting extremely frustrated thinking that this is a destination. It's a journey to learn how to grow each and every single day, through each challenge. View each challenge as an opportunity to become stronger in an area that you find difficulty in. Shift your perception, and receive the challenge as weight-lifting for strength. Meet each day expecting to learn something new, to overcome an obstacle or to simply recognize, that 'it's not that serious'......Life really is a test. Be thankful that you are challenged, otherwise.....your brain doesn't get exercised....and that's when the trouble begins! - Have a lovely day......living and figuring it out....You become the Master of your own destiny.....learn the lesson and keep moving forward!© 2012 Brenda Gale

Love is its own reward. ~ You can control the choice of intentionally focusing on being a loving soul. Become a source of kindness, love and willingness to help where you can avail yourself. Your emphasis should be on what you're giving, not what you expect to receive....You receive, as you're giving. ~ Love is its own reward! Enjoy the harvest  ~ you control the planting!

There are still so many things for you to discover....so much that you're curious about. You can hear the calls beckoning within your soul. Only you can hear the still, small voice and only you can make the choice to 'answer'....... You've been listening for days, months, years.....Don't miss out on the adventure by not responding. Don't leave here with the music/idea/art/cause still in your head. Blossom like the flowers in spring....they always heed the call in their due season. Don't miss your life....don't cheat your soul. 

(It is the soul's duty to be loyal to its own desires. It must abandon itself to its master passion. - Dame Rebecca West)

Welcoming May!

Welcoming the month of May is an exciting time for me.  I love it because everything seems to be blooming, the sun is shining and the weather is warming for those outdoor activities. It's a great time to clear the clutter from your life that you didn't get around to at the beginning of spring and to be conscious about moving forward and blossoming into your Best Self!

Get out, enjoy the sunshine....go for a long walk, go antiquing, do something absolutely silly that doesn't harm anyone else.  Laugh, sing, dance, paint.......Have a blast and don't apologize for blooming into your beautiful self.

Welcome to a new month.....let it be a new chapter in your life.  A good chapter....a happy chapter.....a chapter blossoming with Great Expectations. Happy May!
