HAPPY EARTH DAY!

Happy Earth Day to you and yours!

Today is a special day, one that is devoted to being thankful for the life giver herself and I can't help but feel like Earth Day should get WAY more recognition than it does. Out of all the random holidays we have, shouldn't Earth day be a little higher up on the scale of importance? After all, how would we even be here without this all providing, abundant, brilliantly beautiful planet??? None of this would even be possible. Hmm.. Yeah the more I think about this the stronger I feel. We should absolutely get the day off to get outside and DO SOMETHING TO GIVE BACK FOR THE ULTIMATE MOTHER, to do something to show our thanks and appreciation for this planet we call Earth. We have the power to make a difference... Only we have the power to leave our environment in better condition than it was before. So please, I ask you to do your part, in what ever way you can. 
A friend, my boyfriend and I only had an hour of time to pick up trash and only covered .6 miles, but look how much trash we picked up in that amount of time and space. We had 5 bags of trash, and 3 bags of recyclables. Imagine if even half the people you know did the same thing... Think of how much good that would spread, how good it would feel to drive down the road and not see a reflection of people's laziness. Plus, the simple act of just picking the trash up felt amazing... And I think I may become addicted to making my environment a prettier place. In fact, if you'd like to join our group (we're calling ourselves "Team Clean") then email me @ kpelletier8@yahoo.com and I'll keep you posted for when we go out next.

Anyway, I strongly encourage you to go out and do what you can. Don't allow for limiting thoughts to stop you. We are capable of doing so much more than we realize. And, once you do I promise you'll feel great that you did. :)
Peace and Love Earth Keepers!

And a little Xaiver Rudd, plus video, love to follow the theme:


Give it up and live it up!

I could not agree with this guy more! He offers 50 things that we should let go of. Learning how to let go isn't always easy, but so rewarding! We must let go of  what doesn't serve us in order to make space for that which does! Check it out!
Love to all.

Your Reflection Wants Growth!

A reminder for myself and for anyone else open to it:
The people we attract into our lives are always a reflection of some aspect of our self, whether we like it or not. Often times, people we encounter flat out irritate the heck out of us. They don't keep their promises, they lie, cheat, steal and just plain let us down. No one's perfect, therefor this happens!

However, we are in charge of our own choices and how we CHOOSE to react to these people. Instead of getting irritated by other peoples actions, try to see them as a teacher in disguise offering you an opportunity for personal growth. These people are really reminding us to practice unconditional love, patience, or understanding, if only we'd choose to see it this way! These people are some sort of reflection of what you don't like about yourself, so instead of continuing to not like it, GROW from it! Rise above and be thankful for the chance to evolve.

Its only a shift in consciousness to rise above and be thankful for the lessons these people present us, versus getting bent out of shape about things we can't control anyway. Being thankful for these opportunities elevates you to higher vibrations and positively effects everyone around you.
Dr. Wayne Dyer, one of my favorite authors backs this thought up well by saying, “Simply put, you believe that things or people make you unhappy, but this is not accurate. You make yourself unhappy.” We cannot control what happens outside of us, however, we can control what goes on inside.

Try it out and let me know what you think.
Peace and Love
