Finding the "I Am" in Me

"You've Got A Way"

written by Shania Twain
You've got a way with me
Somehow you got me to believe
In everything that I could be
I've gotta say-you really got a way
You've got a way it seems
You gave me faith to find my dreams
You'll never know just what that means
Can't you see...
you got a way with me
It's in the way you want me
It's in the way you hold me
The way you show me just what love's made of
It's in the way we make love
You've got a way with words
You get me smiling even when it hurts
There's no way to measure what your love is worth
I can't believe the way you get through to me
Oh, how I adore you
Like no one before you
I love you just the way you are
It's just the way you are

I'm Finally Flying With or Without Someone


Trying to Connect

Sometimes I really get tired of putting forth the effort with people. I get so tired of continually expressing myself from the heart, being open and genuine with people. (Speaking my mind and just laying my thoughts and feelings out for everyone to see.) I wonder what the point is. Why do I try so hard with people? Am I afraid of silence? Being alone? Being inadequate? Lack of attention? I really don't know why I feel like expressing my true inner deep feelings to those who I share my life with on a daily basis. I guess for me, it's about living and experiencing LIFE. I can't understand why most people don't want to do this. Our lives on this planet is so short lived. Why not put some kind of real, true meaning in it every day? I simply feel and think too deeply for the average person I suppose. I live every day and every moment just waiting for someone to understand me or where I'm coming from. Just a small glimpse into the real true meaning of life is all it takes to excite or encourage me. It doesn't take much. Just some kind of gesture that someone has heard me or related to my deep thoughts. Or that some human living being in this big universe has touched on something that is bigger or more powerful than our physical existence. Something to let me know that what I FEEL and think about every day might have some kind of TRUTH to it.
I know I'm not a patient person. And I know that I will not sit around forever to find these people whom I know exist and have similar thought patterns as myself. I'm a seeker. I will not rest peacefully until I have found those who can accept me, embrace me and want me in their daily lives. My life is too short to wait around on others. I know what I want and I will not give up until my desires are fulfilled.

Acceptance Not Resistance


My Intuitive Nudge Telling Me I'm Right Where I AM Suppose to BE

I Believe In Love

I made a promise to myself
Locked it way deep down inside
Told my heart we'd wait it out
Swore we'd never compromise
Oh I'd rather be alone
Like I am tonight
I'd settle for the kind of love
That fades before the morning light
Silence stared me in the face
And I finally heard it's voice
It seemed to softly say
That in love you have a choice
Today I got the answer
And there's a world of truth behind it
Love is out there waiting somewhere
You just have to go and find it
I believe in love,
I believe in love
Love that's real,
love that's strong
Love that lives on and on
Yes I believe in love

Yep! I'm an Owl!

Owl: Nov 23 – Dec 21
Changeable and mutable as the wind, the Owl is a tough one to pin down. Warm, natural, with an easy-going nature, the Owl is friend to the world. The bearer of this Native American animal symbol is notorious for engaging in life at full speed, and whole-hearted loves adventure. This can be to his/her detriment as the Owl can be reckless, careless, and thoughtless. Owls make great artists, teachers, and conservationists. However, due to his/her adaptability and versatility – the Owl would likely excel in any occupation. In a supportive, nurturing environment the Owl is sensitive, enthusiastic, and an attentive listener. Left to his/her own devices, the Owl can be excessive, overindulgent, bitter, and belligerent.

Change is Good

Change is inevitable in our lives. You can recognize that it is time for a change and heed the call by moving gracefully into the next phase of your life. You can also dig in your heels and yell at God saying, "I'm staying just where I am, thank you very much!" If you have indeed outgrown a way of life or a certain pattern of belief, you can be sure your intuition will continue to give you messages that a shift is needed. There are critical times in your life when the easiest path is to understand that change is necessary. At that point you need to listen to your inner guidance to experience peace again.

Every major decision means you enter into a new cycle of transformation, which may require new beliefs, a different spiritual path, a new career, the beginning or ending of a relationship. It may mean letting go of familiar people and places and moving on to another stage of life.

ON THE EDGE


Self Perception

I have too high of expectations for myself and other people. When someone or myself has "failed" in my perception, it is very hard to let go. I can't overlook things that have not worked out according to how I planned it... I have to pick it apart and look at it from every angle in order to have some kind of logical reason in my head as to WHY it happened. Instead of just accepting the fact that some things happen in life for no particular reason or maybe there is a reason which will greatly benefit my future but it can not be seen as so right now; I dissect each experience, conversation or negative occurrence until I feel like I know what went wrong. (Or until I've completely stressed myself out, became sick to my stomach and lost sleep over analyzing the perceived mistakes and missed out on the present moment of life!) LOL I told myself today that I'm on the verge of another "break through" in my life. I am either going to let go of something or I am going to accept it and stop resisting. Whatever I choose or whatever happens, I know it will be for the best. I believe that the loving and positive energy in the Universe will guide me in the right direction.

HOPE

HOPE is not the closing of your eyes
to the difficulty, the risk,
or the failure.
It is a trust that-
if I fail now-
I shall not fail forever;
and if I am hurt,
I shall be healed.
It is a trust that
life is good
love is powerful,
and the future is full of promise.

FAITH

Trust that there's a divine plan, that we don't always know what's best for us. A disappointment now could mean victory later, so don't be disappointed. There is usually a reason.

Pondering Thoughts from the Plane

You are right. I'm still very young with a lot of life to live. I should enjoy this time alone. I don't know why I get into such a rush to make things happen or latch onto something so good. I guess I really have an unrealistic fear that I'm going to be alone in life. I want so badly to share my life, experiences, dreams, adventures and love with another person. Someone who respects and accepts me for who and how I am. I know I am a caring, intelligent and beautiful person with a compassionate heart. So to think that no one would want to have me in their life and grow old with me is absurd! My goal now is to let go of trying to make things happen according to when and how I think they should happen and let life take its course. I'm becoming tired of trying to figure out the how's, when's or why's. So once again, thanks for showing me the light and giving me a nudge in the right direction. You are such a wise friend!

Dream Come True

How did I become so lucky to find you? Why did God bless me with your life? I know how.... I dreamed you into my existence. I often wondered what it would be like to have such a caring, thoughtful and loving person such as yourself in my world. Giving me respect, love and attention which I deserve. Someone to share my passions and interests with. I give my thanks every day for meeting you! I'm overwhelmed with joy and happiness at times. It's almost as if it's all too good to be true.
I only hope I bring as much pleasure and happiness into your world as you do mine.
