Conscious Living

Of course I've heard of it before and believed I was living it. Now I wonder if I really am. Am I just existing, day by day, or am I truly grateful for each opportunity I'm given by God to be my highest self? It's like needing a bell on my toe to ring with every movement so as to not miss an opportunity to be my best.

Guess that's as a friend and former coach of mine called "unconsciously conscious." I'm not there yet. I'm in the middle of "consciously unconscious" and consciously conscious." I'll keep at it!

Opinions Not Based on Fact

I'm frustrated to see so many people take on the opinions of others with no verification or validation of facts! Just because someone "says" this or that, they believe it, even if it makes no logical sense. Quick to judge and find shortcomings yet offer no solutions for the problem attempting to be solved.

How do you have a conversation with some who does this? I've found I just move on and away, seeing that any attempts to discuss information based on research and readings will still be disregarded.

Meanwhile, I'll continue to be open to new information, new research, new facts on which to base my opinions.

Engaged in Relationship

Despite being in a most satisfying relationship, one in which I'd only imagined possible, I've realized how easy it is to become passive, to forget how grateful, fulfilled, and joyous it is to have found that special person with whom I want to spend the rest of this life!

How could that happen? How could I, so seemingly easily, forget the days of past relationships where there was always something not quite right, something not fulfilling, something not whole, or those days of wondering if I'd ever meet that special person to share my life?

I guess it's easy to get caught up in day to day life, to forget to cherish each moment, to forget how truly special and rare the feeling of such happiness. Good breakdown! Awesome break through!

I'm so glad I've re-membered. I'm so fortunate. I'm proclaiming here that I will do my best to be an active partner in this relationship!
