Faith

Faith is considered having confidence or trust in something without empirical evidence.

It's about trust, belief, hope. 

It's more than a strong conviction... it's the deepest belief and hope inside yourself that never waivers.

Now, faith isn't easy when the chips are strongly stacked in the opposite direction.  So what makes faith possible?   How can you choose to believe at such a deep level when there is no evidence at all? 
It comes down to that little voice inside you... your soul. 
The one that, when the chips are down, has you look deep inside and answer the question.   WHAT DO I BELEIVE? 

Do I believe in possibility?
Do I believe in happiness?  Health?  Abundance?  Change?   Peace?

Basically, it comes down to the question, do I believe in happy endings?  And do I believe that in this one? 

If you answer no, you might as well give up.
But if you answer yes, than you need to draw on faith.  Deep deep faith and believe and hope and love and the power of the universe to deliver your deepest desires.   You must hold onto this faith in the darkest of times and KNOW that your happiness, your health, your abundance, peace, change, and happy ending is coming.

Faith is about JUMPING.  Then holding on.   And never letting go.
Faith is about kicking FEAR to the curb.   Kicking uncertainty and worry and defeat out of your life.

You have to be strong to have faith.
It is what keeps you going.  It is what keeps the dream alive.  Faith, trust, belief, hope, and love.   They are all basically the same thing.   They are the essence of the very best of the human spirit and where are stories of triumph come from.

It all starts with faith.

The Power Of a Smile

Smiles have amazing power.

They can change your mood, outlook, and whole day.   It just has a way of lifting you up.
And not only can they give your mood a lift, they can give somebody else's mood a lift too.

So today, I'm going to practice smiling.
And a smile isn't only something plastered on your face.   A smile also shows as a twinkle in your eye, a smile in your voice, a smile in your gestures and the way you touch, talk, and move.  

You can smile with your face, eyes, voice, and whole body.   Every part of your body, heart, and mind can smile.    And even if you feel awful, sick, scared, or sad -- a smile, over time, can change the way you look at the world.  It can change your body chemistry and even help create new healthy cells in your body.

So today I will smile as often as I can, and in as many ways as I can.
And I will notice what happens as I do.

Smiles are free and they are magical.  

And, my guess, is they hold more power than almost anything.

Once Upon a Time...

There was a woman with two amazing kids, a loving supporting wonderful husband, a caring amazing dad, a loving wonderful extended family, and a wonderful mom (now an angel) who taught her how to have the best life ever!!

She is truly TRULY blessed.

And even though she's been through some hard times, she always comes out on top.  Because THAT'S what life is all about.   Learning, healing, and moving forward.   To the BEST DAYS AND THE BEST LIFE AND THE BEST PERSON YOU CAN BE.

Happiness is a choice.  No matter WHAT is going on.  No matter what circumstances, no matter what you have to face.   You can still choose to live a super amazing happy love filled life.

And that is how you heal your life, health, and situation.

By focusing on the GOOD parts and making every part the BEST it can possibly be, no matter what.   Whatever threatens to take us down, is not as strong as LOVE.  It is not as strong as the FEELING in your heart.  And that is the feeling you CAN choose.   The heart is ALL mine to choose with it what I will. 

And this girl chooses to live happily ever after.

THAT IS MY DESTINY.
