Expect the unexpected. Like children, they can dream the impossible, their imagination is so wide with direction. As adults, somewhere down the line we get where we expect things a certain way, or maybe that's just me. I've come to the point where I am learning to let go, relax and think of whats most important like family and being inspired by children who live and dream big. I take courage in the fact that "who said it had to be that way". By eliminating expectations I feel more free.she planted a treehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02472468483081308031noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214870516935405816.post-34516611513357736112013-01-03T23:51:00.001-07:002013-01-04T00:06:49.955-07:00prepare.<br />

Prepare for the climb.<br />
Ever wake up at 9:30am and have to work at 10am and your work is exactly 30mins away?Oy, that happened to my little brother this morning and I had to take him to work this morning. I just realized then how important preparation is. It's so much more effective to be thinking ahead, then little situations like this won't be such a problem and smooth(er) sailing for the rest of your day or whatever it is you have going on in your life. Life is an uphill battle, every day it seems. So we must prepare for the climb and enjoy the ride!she planted a treehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02472468483081308031noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214870516935405816.post-86922852141287004202013-01-02T22:19:00.000-07:002013-01-02T22:19:17.885-07:00fire.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Fire is so fascinating to me. From a candle, you can light countless other candles without much difficulty. I'd like to compare excitement and enthusiasm to the flame of a candle, so easily it can spread to other candles without diminishing impact to its original source. However, a simple flame can easily be put out. Today I've been examining what keeps me motivated and what keeps my flame alive. I'm pretty excited about this New Year and have great new plans that I hope can be contagious and motivating to others. she planted a treehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02472468483081308031noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214870516935405816.post-30542895375987039312013-01-01T21:06:00.000-07:002013-01-01T21:06:58.612-07:00one.<br />

One day at a time. <br />
1+1+2+3+5+8+13+21+34...<br />
I feel good about 2013. This time I'm going to keep it up. I want to keep it simple and do things one at a time, for me. One picture, one word, one idea each day. Today, I was focusing on 'one' and how the momentum of one can escalate in the direction of our dreams. Fibonacci is the tool for creation and I AM THE CREATOR OF MY OWN DESTINY!<br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Motivated by this message, what is it we doing with our hands. Understanding more on the conflict, is this wall more a benefit or a burden?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Again, the problem in the Middle East has no quick+easy solutions. The issue has never seemed so real until I visited this very spot. What are these two sides to do except for reestablishing trust. When? Hopefully now. I like the accidental crop here with the second message of graf posing the question.. "the time is.." the obvious answer is "NOW" , but is it? Just like in our bible studies, the call to repentance never ceases. Repent! repent! The time is short, the time is come. The time is Now! </span><br />

ISTANBUL :<br />
One thousand and forty-four pictures later,<br />
a quick love for Istanbul developed almost instantaneously. </div>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A lovely city. The architecture was outstanding, interior and exterior. Rich with patterns, colors, history, dedication and prayer. One of my favorite things about this place was the people. The food on the side of the streets, or the colors in the markets, almost a scene from a old familiar film I wanted to make up simple stories for nearly everyone that I met. Turkey, known for their textiles and art, I definitely plan on coming back one day. Seeing the city by fairy was a real treat and gave a great sampler of the hill side, the palaces and the masques galore. Surprisingly even though there are 2,000 masques, back in Jerusalem , the call to prayer is much louder. I think the speakers are intentionally faced towards our general direction. But, I don't mind. </span>she planted a treehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02472468483081308031noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214870516935405816.post-8662897232006949722012-05-25T11:28:00.000-06:002012-06-14T04:58:30.391-06:00TURKEY<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Summer in Jerusalem.<br />
Why? Because it's my dream that keeps me going along.<br />
The magnetic pull that captures my gaze as it scans the horizon.<br />
Gold and refined, the experience and the history of the most wanted stretch of land.<br />
Why am I here? The universe prepared me for this, it knew I was coming.<br />
Looking back I see how much everything relates to this single moment of now.<br />
Jerusalem, I long to stay, at least for the following months.<br />
Keeping my heart open for whatever may come,<br />
strung along by the Lord. <br />
I'm coming home.<br />
Jerusalem.<br />

I've ran into my friends who want to do yoga on the beach with me and its a great support group. I also watcht the Yoga Girl youtube which is hilarious. I started school today and I loved it. From my first class they suggested we "get in touch with ourselves" I think I will be doing that this semester. I feel really good about it. I also need to get into the groove of things. And get a job. We'll see.

I have never ridden a train before. I feel like I'm at the beginning of something beautiful. I time to let go and let all the preparation go to work. The slightest switch of an inch on a track will change the final destination. We get so set in our ways, as humans, our brains try and try to groove in the tissues of our mind habbits, behaviors, and a course that leads to our destiny. Again, I feel confidence in the inch of change. The stretch for more, and the rest found on the ride. Conflicting? Well, its life.she planted a treehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02472468483081308031noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214870516935405816.post-11543656734537747852012-01-05T23:30:00.002-07:002012-01-05T23:33:08.095-07:00day5HAPPY BIRTHDAY SISTER!<br />Keeping it simple today. <br />Watched footloose with the cousin and carly and people I dont really know. <br />Played Sequence. <br /><br />Good Day.she planted a treehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02472468483081308031noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214870516935405816.post-60138818504092661322012-01-04T23:01:00.002-07:002012-01-04T23:18:08.584-07:00day4TEA! <br />Today I was consumed by tea. The way it travels down my diguestive system, medicating my aliments. I am absorbed by its splender. It's healing properties are expected in the days to come. I was drawn towards the peppermint, Tulsi(holy basil) this time around. I strongly believe when we listen to our bodies, they will tell us what we need. How important it is to act and strength the mind, body, soul aspect of our lives. I am currently rebuilding this relationship and learning how to love myself in all its lovely phases.she planted a treehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02472468483081308031noreply@blogger.com0
