An Incredible Free Trip

When I saw this, an incredible smile blossomed across my face. My entire life feels like a vacation. When one begins every day, with a sense of purpose and adventure, there is no need to escape. I’ve been on many exciting, exotic, and overly expensive escapes and none of them come close to matching a life lived with passionate zest and intent. Everything shines to me. Every moment carries interest. Every action is decisive. An organic coffee and a good book have become as thrilling as a trip to Paris, Berlin, or Rome. I am in love… with my life. XO

10 Ways to Love

How many of these things cost money? NONE. What they cost, though, is something much more valuable: OUR TIME. Why is it that so many people never recognize our most valuable commodity? The most valuable gift we can give is LOVE.

I am Grateful

Waking up every morning with an attitude of gratitude fuels the ENTIRE DAY. No matter how much or how little we have, it is IMPERATIVE to foster a mindset of abundance. Gratitude, in turn, fuels this abundant mindset. Feeling utterly grateful for my breakfast of delicious organic fruit and herbal tea, I set to work in a joyous state of being, cleaning and organizing. Organization is quite like meditating – I get in the ZONE. Whilst in the ZONE, I discovered a sealed envelope that contained a $100 grocery gift card. Brilliant! I was grateful enough for the day itself, and this gratitude was compounded by a monetary gift. Some might ascertain that I manifested this. One never knows…

Sprouting at home. The most inexpensive way to cultivate inexpensive, nutritious, organic greens. An olive oil + balsamic vinegar + freshly ground pepper dressing over alfalfa and romaine is my favourite quick ‘n dirty dinner. A bowl of ‘weeds’… mmm

A real gem: A week at the International Taoist Tai Chi Centre for the health recovery program is $500. This includes meals, classes, and personal attention. The priceless part of this entire endeavor is the amazing support and encouragement offered by the group – people from all over the world, of all races, creeds, and occupations.

Ravine

I buy most of my clothes at second hand stores, yet I don’t blink at dropping several hundred dollars on supplements. My husband and I share a vehicle – a rusty one at that – and yet we purchase only the best food. We live in a bachelor condo, yet have had some extraordinary and rather luxurious vacations this year. I have finally turned into a person who lives to shine from the inside out, rather that projecting from an surface level of illusions.

Watching this video gave me chills. It was an immediate time warp back to the 80s.
The decade of big hair and intense eye shadow.
