Leap Year
Did you know ?
There are really 365.2422 days that the earth rotates the sun in a year? that's just over 5 extra hours a year, not a big deal since that's only a quarter of a day, but over time Winter would become summer and summer winter.
Hence Leap Year every 4 years!
Every century we would loss 24 days, Which is were the problem begins, eventually July 4 th could become Christmas and Christmas could end up being Halloween,
Hey maybe the retailers know something we don't!! ; )
What's even more amazing is this was discovered during the Roman Empire under Julius Caesar in the year 45 BC!
Now that keeps me wondering!

Look Up...
Have You Seen It?
Have you taken the time to look up lately?
Go outside some evening and there it is, a sight like no other...
The moon, and the planets, Venus and Jupiter, lined up all in a row, kind of mind boggling!
Makes me Wonder...
Is someone out there looking up at night seeing the earth as clearly as we are seeing Jupiter and Venus?
Just wondering...

What Happen To February?
Where's February?
I woke up this morning wondering what happened to February? Then I realized its Monday again, which made me wonder just how many Monday's I have lived through the number... 2,769 Monday's so far.
That's two thousand seven hundred and sixty nine Mondays... To start over!!! Oh my!
Today I realized I need to start living out my desires, accomplishing my goals, and follow my dreams on 2,769th Monday, today is the day!!!

Oh Yes You Can!
Oh Yes You Can!
I was reading something on line yesterday and it said
"Oh yes you can"
and I thought what a strong positive affirmation...
"Oh yes I can", maybe a great way to start your day,
Believing that,
Oh yes you can ........
And let what follows just happen!
Simply put,
Believe and See because
Oh Yes You Can!!!!
Awe, just in awe....

It Is Just That!
It's Just That...
We all have our moments of doubt and fear ... But they are just that!
A moment:
"an indefinitely short period of time; instant."
An instant:
"a very short time (as the time it takes the eye blink or the heart to beat)"
So remember, when you are having a moment that doesn't give you joy and peace rest assured its just that...
A moment, a blink of an eye, a fleeting instant which will pass and just as the blink of an eye opens back up and is able to see the light, and the world and all it's glory, you too have that same promise ...
It's just that ... A moment!

Pushing Through
Pushing Through ...
We all find ourselves in situations that we wish would just end!
Each moment of wondering when, pushes us through to the next moment closer to our answer of why?
Why did we just have to go through so much pain?
Be it, Physical or emotional...
Pain is a pain!
Pain is also growth...
It's one of the few places growth can happen at a depth like no other emotion.
It sucks while in the middle of experiencing it, sometimes it even seems like it will never end!
Life tells us, what goes up must come down and if there is a beginning,
then there will be an end...
So the comfort of knowing if you keep pushing through the pain what seems like just the beginning will soon come to an end!!!
Wondering about love!

Together For 60 Years..
"Together For 60 Years"
Can you imagine ? Being with the same person, together for 60 years?
That is what I celebrated with my family this weekend, my loving parents together for 60 years.
Never once do I remember them fighting, now my mom on the other hand did tend to nag, my dad, a strong independent business
owner really wasn't bothered by her nagging.
It was a time when "the dad" cared for his family in ways you seldom see today. a world war 2 vet, he always had a loving strength about him. As I remember, he never yelled at us either, that was my moms job : )
Both college educated from the 1940s, both from broken homes, both driven to have the family they never experienced, both loved by many, both wonderful role models!
I've admired their relationship, something I haven't seem to gotten right myself, yet!
I wonder if what I've witnessed with my parents is even possible today ?
With the divorce rate so high, and I being a casualty myself , what can I expect from a relationship?
I admire people in a loving healthy marriage these days, and wonder will I ever get it right?
My goal, is to celebrate a 25 th Anniversary with the love of my life someday!
I have "my life" just need to find
"my love"...
Happy Anniversary mom and dad!
And to all you in a loving marriage I say " congratulations" and remember, don't take your spouse for granted , honor, respect, and love each other and someday you too may say ...
"Together for 60 years!"

Gatekeeper ?
GateKeeper
You are the GateKeeper of you!
definition: someone who controls access to something..
Only you can control access to your thoughts, your actions, your emotions.
You decide when to open your gate.
So as the gatekeeper of yourself, how do you control the use of your gate?
Does it have a lock to shut out negative thoughts and feelings which don't edify you? Or is there a loose spring and your gate flys open and closed as easily as the wind blows?
Something to consider:
A controlled gate is sign of a strong Keeper, You !
Loving the awe of wonder...

What Time Is It For You?
"There is a time for everything,and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die,a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal,a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh,a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, a time to search and a time to give up,a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend,a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate,a time for war and a time for peace."(Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 NIV)What time is it for you?Just Wondering?

PRESENT Focused?
Where's your focus?
Is it on today, the present, the now?
Or do you still spend precious time on the past?
The past is anything that isn't now!
How many times do you need to rehash a childhood memory, a sad decision, a big mistake, a regret, a hurt, only to be robbed of the your PRESENT...
When does enough become enough ?
When do you move past the past into the present?
Today could be the day!
Embrace your blessings, receive the gift of your present and open your PRESENT day and see it for all it's joy and glory!
It's time to live in the present...
In awe of life and love !

Connecting To....
I am amazed at the number of people one can connect with on any given day.
Which makes me wonder, just how many connection do we miss because of being to busy with ourselves?
As we go through life in our own little worlds, how much time do we take to touch someone's life?
A smile, an acknowledgment of a name, holding a door open, a compliment, even just blessings someones day, all are ways to connect.
You will never know the difference it may make in someone's life...
A connection, a chance to touch a life of another person, a purpose...
As you go through your day, take a moment to connect to someone, not only will you touch someones life, but watch and see, just how much your life will be touched also!
A wonder of love and awe..

17 inches ..
There is about 17 inches between your head and your heart.
The difference between understanding love and truly feeling and experiencing love.
Why do some people embrace the emotion of love with every inch of their being and others are only capable of thinking about the emotion of love ?
Why the disconnect?
Allowing your heart to run free, and embracing love is a beautiful experience, possibly like non other!
When love feels right, there is no denying its truth....
Honoring love is very empowering, accepting all that it encompasses is extremely invigorating.... Its a feeling of being alive, aware and available to a sense of pure beauty.
With love comes an awareness of a number of other emotions, and if you allow love to carry you through, stand strong on knowing, love conquers all....
In awe of loving ...no matter the wonder!

Honor Your Truth
Honoring Your Truth ...
Speaking your truth, and how you feel, brings a healing presence to your heart and spirit.
Some might say that puts you in a vulnerable position.
I am beginning to realize vulnerability is a gift which gives you strength and control of your own life. Not fearing being exposed is extremely empowering!
Can you imagine being true to your feelings, having strength no matter the outcome and knowing and trusting in Gods perfect plan...
Some may trust in the energy of the universe or the natural flow of life, whatever you name it, it's all part of a divine plan!
"Honoring your truth brings an inner peace... Honoring your emotions restores wholeness"

Are We There Yet?
I started wondering this morning about life ... And at what point do we realize we have truly arrived?
Arrived to the place of purpose and stop driving ourselves crazy searching for life's answers.
Then I thought "are we there yet"
Which just made me smile , because as children we are always wondering "are we there yet?"
I've come to the realization "I'm not there yet" and if I am fortunate enough to keep searching and seeking life's wonders and mysteries I'll never arrive, I'll just keep living , loving and embracing life's journey...
Maybe it's not the destination after all that matters, but experiencing and embracing people, places and things along the path of our life's journey.
Makes me wonder, how much have I missed waiting to arrive!!!
Never stop wondering...

Desire To Connect?
Desires of Connection...
Life's funny , well not so funny when you miss a connection...
As human beings with human desires, connection to others is something most yearn for. That human connection, that feeling of love, touch and acceptance to a real connection.
Connecting your desire with someone with similar desires for some, can be a life long journey, for others, their connection may last a lifetime...
Why the difference?
What separates those who stay happily connected to a loved one and those who continually search?
Those who settle, to those who will not?
Those who desire a connection to those who are content alone? ( or are they?)
We have all heard how an infant will perish if not touched, held and given love ...
Maybe as we grow older our spirits begin to perish in that same way.
As single adults, we too need to be touched, held and loved....
Even the elderly need touch and it's been noted, that their increase for going to see doctors, in many cases are because of their desire to be connected and touched.
No matter the age, a desire for a love connection is inevitable..
If you are one of the blessed ones with a life long partner don't take them for granted... Remember to love them and touch them daily...
Did you know the average women needs 10 touches a day ? It's true!
If you are still searching, like many, don't give up, your love connection is out there, after all there are over 300 million people in this country to choose from!
And when you do find that connection, love them with all your heart, touch them, hold them and don't let them go!

Connect the Disconnect
"Connect" the Disconnect
Working on ourselves as we walk through life is a place to
"strive to arrive!"
I believe most of us have what I like to refer to as a " disconnect." Being a wonderer of people, a person who loves connection, I've seen a lot of this " disconnect" in my life time.
We are all made up of two sides, our strengths and our weaknesses . The very strength within us can be the very same thing that makes us weak.. The dreaded Disconnect.
I've come to realize this, working hard on myself, being the best I can be, starting with loving myself from the inside out...
Even with the emotion of Love, we can be disconnected ... This can happen by Loving someone more than we love ourselves. In order to connect with the world around us we must be aware of what and how we connect in all areas of our life!
Strive to find the connect of any disconnect that may be causing havoc with your ability to be all that you desire to be ... And to connect the missing pieces you must drop the "dis" and just connect!
And by the way, The root prefix "Dis" means take way or deprive...
Why would you want to deprive yourself of connection?
Especially connection with your authentic self, so the connection with others will be that much more authentic!
The Wonderer wondering again!

Choose A Whole Heart
Whole Hearted or Broken Hearted ?
Another choice?
We have the ability to choose...
We have the gift of choice!
Whole hearted or broken hearted?
We all have experienced the feeling of broken hearted ... Which honestly sucks! ( I said honestly hence using the word sucks) but it is all part of life's experiences and growth process...
As I wondered about how the heart heals I realized the choice we have between living with a Whole heart or a Broken heart. Then realizing the energy of a broken heart can't be hidden, no matter how hard we try others will sense a broken heart, it just is!
Perseverance, self love, acceptance and forgiveness for oneself will lead you on the path to Whole Heartedness....
The easy part is to give your joy away and live with a broken heart..
Everyone can do that !
But not everyone will choose Joy and contentment and choose a wholehearted existence...
We have the choice, we have the god given ability to live in love, live with forgiveness and embrace joy naturally.
Spread that energy and see how life will come alive !!!
In awe of self love, self forgiveness and living in Joy..

P&E
Pissed and Empowered
Can being pissed make you empowered? I think so !!!
Only if you move through a negative emotion can we feel the empowerment ... If we stay stuck to long in a feeling of negative emotion it will take over our thoughts and take over you ..
We have choices, to feel, embrace what we feel, honor those feelings, and when it's time move them out of your thoughts and choose to feel empowered ...
I am honoring being pissed, although angry is a nicer word : ) but I am choosing the word pissed, for me personally it has away of helping me to release and move into the state of empowerment more easily.
Choose your thoughts and your feelings will follow.. Release your negative emotions (when ready) and embrace your empowered self!
Already feeling so much more empowered : )
In wonder of the Awe of strength!

Candy Really?
Candy... Really?
Many Women struggle with body image issues.
And so, I got wondering this morning, of all the possible gifts to say "I love you" on Valentines day, why in the world would anyone want 3,000 extra calories which are guaranteed to go straight their hips, thighs and butts shoved in a red velvet heart shaped box?
jewelry and flowers now there's a great thought : )
Just wondering ...
Still in awe of LOVE < 3

To Love or Not To Love....
To Love or Not To Love?
It's easier not to love than to love in many cases after a break up...
Personal Growths biggest lessons come from heartache ...
To love or not to love ?
I choose Love, there's nothing like it,
and personal growth, well, if your willing to grow there's nothing more empowering than to embrace and honor your true inner self ...
Try meeting, discovering and loving that !
In awe of True Love

Vday Is Coming....
V Day is Coming V Day is Coming!
It's meaning:
A day of victory, (as at the conclusion of a war.)
I love that " a day of Victory"
For all people, men and women alike who may not like V day or as it is so fondly called Valentines Day because perhaps you don't have a special love ....
Why not look at it as....
A day of Victory and just enjoy it!
We all would love to share love on that one special day I'm sure...
Take time this V day to love the one you're with or surprise someone who would least expect it with a little love (that person may even be you)
Happy Victory Day!
In awe of love.. And wonder ....

Do You Believe ?
Do You Believe?
The word believe keeps crossing my Path...
If we would believe!
When we live in a state of belief it's amazing the things that can happen.
It got me wondering what was the driving force between those who do believe and those who don't?
Could it be because some live in a state of fear? They can't believe because fear keeps them from believing anything they can dream, any thing their heart yearns for can happen ?
As a reminder most know what fear stands for
false evidence appearing real FEAR!
We can go around telling yourselves we want this, we can do that, we feel it's just a matter of time, but do we really believe?
Do we believe in ourselves?
Do we believe we are Worthy?
Do we believe that our all dreams can come true?
Try believing and see what will happen!
B believe
E everyone
L lives
I in
E excellence and
V victory
E everyday

We can go around telling yourselves we want this, we can do that, we feel it's just a matter of time, but do we really believe?
Do we believe in ourselves?
Do we believe we are Worthy?
Do we believe that our all dreams can come true?
Try believing and see what will happen!
B believe
E everyone

E excellence and
V victory

The Awe of Wondering .... Believe!

Walking Towards Love...
"When we walk away from something we love, We are walking towards love "
When love is involved it can make us weaker or stronger...
Hence the saying "weak at the knees" must have come from someone in love.
Love is a crazy emotion, a wonderful feeling, a sensation that can wreak havoc with the strongest muscle in your body, the heart.
It makes me wonder if men and women are even capable to experience the emotion of love at the same emotional level.
Are men capable of love?
Are men wired for the feeling of love?
Are women oversensitive to the emotion of love?
Can men and women love equally?
All questions that make me wonder...
So what if men could love more freely and be more vulnerable and women could love with less emotion?
Still just wondering....(and realizing these thoughts don't apply to every man and every women)
It's all part of growing, learning, getting stronger within ourselves which allows us to open up to the depths of our very soul and "Walk towards Love " the love that is whole, healthy and true...
Starting from the inside out!
"Love is beautiful, love is true,
love can conquer people like me and people like you "
In wonder of love...

"Settling ?"
I got thinking about the word settling.
So I looked up the meaning...
The Meaning:
"A gradual sinking to a lower level"
It made me think about when things settle, what exactly happens to them.
Like a foundation when it settles.. It may crack or a new house the walls may even crack.. Which makes perfect sense according to the above definition "A gradual sinking to a lower level" ... I have seen this first hand in my own home. And we all know nothing good can come from too many cracks!!
Of course it got me wondering about relationships ...and when we "settle" in a relationship is it just a matter of time before it sinks to a lower level and cracks also ?
It would seem that way..
So today's lesson:
"Don't settle and you wont sink to a lower level!"
Keep on wondering : )

The Missing Piece
The Missing Piece?
We go through life thinking we have it all together, convinced we just need a little more time, believing everything will work itself out.
Only to realize that no one really has it all together, time isn't guaranteed, and sometimes it takes that inner peace to make sure things will work out.
We can strive to have it all together, as long as we can be honest with ourselves. Live, being present to this very moment in time , loving and embracing the beauty placed in our life path ( people, places and things) And embracing what our heart feels to ensure we don't miss out on the things in life that bring us peace.
You might say
"The missing piece is
the missing Peace ..."
In awe of love...

Are You Available ?
Are You Available?
Emotionally available that is..
How is your emotional health?
As a society we tend to focus on physical health, encouraged to eat right, get enough sleep and work out.
On the other hand when it comes to our emotional health most people want to take the easy way out and medicate themselves.
Lets think about that for a moment.
For great physical health you need to make sure that you treat your body well by eating properly, taking time to work out and physically exercising your body, along with the proper amount of sleep. This combination seems to be a good start for getting your physical health into great shape. And we know that takes time, patience and dedication.
So as a society what do we do to take care of our mental health?
I don't know this for sure but I would have guess... many live in a state of fear and denial and others self medicate by popping a pill or having a drink....
It certainly saves on time, not having to deal with the emotions within that truly prevents us from living the full life we are meant to live! And for some it prevents us from living life that we yearn to embrace...
Why not take a moment and ask yourself are you emotionally available?
Is your emotional state of mind equally as fit as your physical health?
If it is, wonderful , if it's not come up with a life plan that will allow your emotional health to be all you desire it to be!
Starting with positive affirmations and loving who God has created you to be...
There're many great resources for a wonderful emotional state of mind,
From Self-help books, therapy, connecting with God, as well as eating right and working out, these all can be a start to getting yourself to a place of being
Emotionally Available....

The Dorothy Syndrome
Walking Towards Love...
Have you ever had to walk away from something in order to find what you truly were looking for?
And what you were looking for, really wasn't what you thought after all?
Have you ever realized that what you were looking for you had a long?
I guess you could call that the "Dorothy syndrome"
Looking at everybody and everything around you to find your way home or "walking towards love" , while the whole time you had it within you...
All we have to do is stop, be present to the moment, be present to ourselves, look deep within our souls, and love the one true person who will always love you, and all you need to do is love and accept that person for who they really are ....
and that person would be you!
Walking towards love means; reaching out to yourself, loving yourself, accepting yourself,all while embracing what life has to offer...
And remind yourself what life has to offer truly are blessings!
"There's no place like home" walk towards love...
An admired creator of love, awe and wonder.... so I've been told!

Swim Nemo Swim....
Finding Nemo...
I got thinking about a goldfish the other day. Being trapped in a bowl going around and around in circles all day long , made me think of my own life...
I had felt stuck in the same bowl, in the same water, in the same circle for years... it's been the last several years that has got me thinking and wondering so much more about life.
Perhaps brought on by my age, being an empty nester, being single, or just being present to life!
Ive come to realize there is a huge ocean out there to swim in...
People to see, place to go, life to be lived....
And I thought, what if I was to leave my little fishbowl and swam into that huge ocean of life... It certainly could be a scary and I could be eaten alive.. Then I realized its a chance I have to take, embrace, Live, to truly be set free....
And after I was all done wondering, I realized that makes me Nemo...
Finding Nemo means finding Me!
"Swim Nemo Swim!"
N nature vs nurture
E excitement vs excellence
M meaningful vs Mindful
O original vs ordinary
Love wondering ....

The Light...
There Is a light at the end of the tunnel..
Have you ever been in a dark tunnel?
You can't see forward, you can't see backwards, you feel you only exist in a void...
It certainly can be a metaphor for some seasons in our life.
Coming out of a tunnel from many weeks of pain, I honestly can say "I see the light at the end of the tunnel"
Or better yet "I can smell and feel the fresh clean air coming through the end of the tunnel"
Life's journeys takes us in many different directions, when we go in a direction that is unexpected, life's lessons seem that much more profound...
Those journeys can either make us or break us, and although sometimes we may feel that we are being totally broken, that's when we're actually being fixed!
It's during the brokenness that we truly are picking up the pieces and putting them back together...
Like a puzzle there're many pieces, but in order to see that beautiful finished picture those little puzzle pieces must be put together, and sometimes they are put together over and over and over again...
Don't give up…
There is light, there is new fresh air coming through the end of your tunnel!
