The Path to Discovery

Words are so simple; they lift you up, they take away the pain and they parade you in front of the one person you truly desire. They help spread love, joy and hatred for all to see. Words are like fragmented pieces; you don’t know where they will lead until they find their place in the home. They turn the tide; they survive the stigma and they bolt you straight up when you need the strength to surrender. Going the distance with communication is less of a burden when you are prepared. Prepared for the backlash and less judgemental ways in which you recline your chair and take it all in your own stride.   Breathing in one’s desires holds a special commitment when worried about how you will be perceived. It will show you how to hold your head up and take that leap of faith. I know myself when it comes to the way I hold myself. I want to yell out and communicate in a way that would not be prolific or worthwhile in my own cause. It shows a timing and judgemental way that I am not proud...

The chorus lifted me up. It  spruced  my imagination and led me on a wild goose chase. This little girl once had an imagination so full of life, it was vibrating through my body. I miss that little girl; I miss that love. The moment of time that pulled me in to the most imaginable time of my life. Who could forget the childhood spent with my friends dreaming up castles, witches, cauldrons and dreaming about prince charming? This is the time in life that I need my prince, a reflection on how life has catapulted us to a realm of despair. A despair so frequent that this is the new norm. We are going through life with a vengeance. Wanting the despair of hate, crimes, sickness and disease rampant around the world.   Love is somewhere hidden at the bottom of the pile. It has evaporated into the unknown as the death, destruction and mayhem riddle our bodies and minds. Love is there. Love is sitting there waiting for us to evolve so that the light can flourish through the darkne...

  The times have changed. They have ripped me apart; they have lunged me back into reality and they have stepped me up in the time of revolution. How can that be when we don’t know what we are dealing with? Sometimes we have to trust, trust our instincts. Be a martyr, be a pauper or be a stumbling block for the less fortunate. We all need that realisation that we can succumb to the life that we so desperately need for survival. A stumbling block that can lead the poor to find humanity and when that happens, the doors are less frightening and threatening for the ones walking through them.   We have an inkling that the roads less travelled are the ones that make us right again. The ones that can flourish when we find that road, find that way of life and hold steady the realisation that unbeknown to us we have another way of moving forward. This is called freedom. This is called living the life that can flourish and accept us warts and all. It is a hard road to follow. I have le...

Getting out of your comfort zone takes courage, it takes conviction. How many people wonder when the next stage will hit you with a vengeance. Sowing the seed for growth takes conviction and satisfaction that continues until complete. We can turn our noses up or we can learn to curb the roads less travelled. We all have that inbuilt ability to make things harder on ourselves. I don’t think that changes much these days, but we know a fine line when we see one.   Who thought that going the distance in an online education setting would happen? Of all the times we wondered what life would be like if it changed. Well change has come full circle; it has ripped us out of our comfort zone and shown a real connection to the world that we did not know. Looking back takes time and that will be a learning curve that we all needed to take on board. Sounding the board for realisation with technology is also part of the new times. Learning to navigate our way around a computer takes ownership, it...

When the sun came out from the horizon, I could feel the warmth on my skin. It was a sight to behold for I had forgotten the beauty of the bay. It reminded me of my childhood spent down at the beach with my family. The times that made me smile, the times that were forgotten from all the memories of the last few years. I was caught up in a cycle of destruction trying to relive what had happened. The maliciousness and lies brought forward with the utmost interest of hurting the ones I love. Why are so many people brought to justice in uncertain terms and others are not?   There happens to be karma in this world and for all the harsh realities that take place, the bolthole will be unleashed. I believe that karma is a fact. Karma can make you a stronger person. It can show the softer side of you when you know what your actions entail. I came from a stable home, a loving home. The words that ricochet off me are pure love. Love is joyous, love is harmony, love can take you to a place th...

  Children have an inept way of showing us their true colours. They can be a magnet of resilience or a detrimental configuration on themselves. Having the humour to keep them on their toes brings a sentiment we all need. Children are like sponges; they hear, see, compete and bring forth jurisdiction on what they want. Come time to clean the bathroom, they can’t hear. Come time to pick up their toys, what did we say? The meaning of the word NO also brings into consideration a lifetime of resentment from those little toes that keep working on a new solution. That solution is all about giving, all about finding a way to unleash the warrior in a stupendous way of love, hope and dreams.   This child of yours will find their own way of communicating to the world, a release and fragmented way of finding that cherished dream. Dreams are like fractions; they hold you steady until the next move hits you. They bolt you into the realism that no matter what we say, we are here to protect ...

Sometimes in life you just have to bite the bullet. It can be an accomplishment even thinking about it, but sometimes with a little nudge you are on your way forward. With guidance there comes respect, a respect to keep you on your toes. With that little bit of jurisdiction and deliberation, we all know that one person who shines on the outside. But in reality, they are shaking to the core believing their failures are out there for all to see.  I learnt a long time ago that having that belief system can be a trapping for success, it can shine in diversity and make you a stronger person. I believe the universe has your back. I froth at the mouth and divulge in all the pleasures that surround me when I can. That doesn’t mean all the time, there has to be realism to set the fire burning. That burning desire that can lead you on the road to redemption. Desire can take you to the higher mountains of success, it can reach that elopement of realisation that the world is...
