Good Morning! I hope you have a wonderful, blessed day.
I am focusing today on releasing my hurt. You know how when your hurting you have less patience? Well, I am hurting and lashing out. I recognize my behavior and I am going to set my mind to releasing my hurt and fear. Let it go. Inhale. Exhale. Breath.
I forgive myself for letting my emotions run away with me. Today, I will let myself be human and make a couple mistake. Learn from them and move on.
Shedding the skin of yesterday and all its sorrows. Retaining the lessons and move on to tomorrow

TGIF
Don’t be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.
Motivation
Today, let go of the stress. Release the negativity. Close your eyes. Breath.
I am inspired today to release the pain of betrayal. The lies cannot hurt me anymore. The trauma of abuse is reborn into wisdom and I am safe. I am safe to love again. I am loved. I am worthy of this great life I am living. Great things are coming to me. I am in the process of my change and it is beautiful. I am beautiful. I embrace health and happiness. I give love because I am love.

“There is a voice that doesn’t use words. Listen.”
I have to confess that I tend to be overly suspicious. I’ve been through it, liars that is, before. However, I am learning that “gut” can also be a tad on over drive. I have learned to breath, be still and I release the power of love to bring me the truth in action rather than the “truth” I pull from my past inventory of pain and heart ache.
Forgiveness is important in families, especially when there are so many secrets that need to be healed – for the most part, every family’s got them.
There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.
I choose to forgive myself and the people that have lied to me. I am no better than anyone, everyone should be forgiven, myself and you. I am sorry I have let things from my past and our past to linger in the present and influence my behavior and attitude. Here’s to another day!

Friday Eve
Today I am focusing on choices. I choose peace and joy. I choose love. I choose to give myself the freedom to enjoy peace, joy and love. I openly and with welcoming arms receive them. I am worth love. I create my own joy by staying humble and grateful. I have all I need and I am fulfilled.
“Magic is believing in yourself; if you can do that, you can make anything happen”

I love this quote because when you do believe in yourself, you accomplish it! I am worthy of success! I am loved! I am not alone, and it’s not too late! Beautiful things are coming to me, beautiful moments. I am exactly where I am supposed to be and I am on my way!
“Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see.”
Neil Postman
I change the world with raising honest, compassionate, hard working, ethical and loving children into the world as grown men and woman who are honest, compassionate, hard working, ethical and have hearts that love.
My greatest accomplishment are my children. I have watched them grow into mature adults with great pride.
Don’t say it with words, say it with your life! That about sums up any excuse to preach at me about anything. Show me what life can be like. Show me what you mean, live out your example. So when I see how you live, listen to how you talk and I think your way is better than mine and I see a difference in you than I’d like to see in my life, I’ll come ask you. Believe me, I won’t hesitate to talk to you, hear you out and believe what you have to say. We all want something better.. At least I do. So, show me!
An old friend told me to live your fears! Whatever your afraid of, you secretly desire. She has found her light. I am ever inching my way to this unattainable light! I am little Ms Afraid~y~pants! Deep down I fear everything ,it wrecks havoc on my life! I am constantly thinking, overthinking and then rethinking every situation, any possible angle where I would be hurt. I would have tension headaches, my shoulders would ache. I was very tense. Wound tight you could say. I want to go back to school, but I hesitate. I am living but I am not living my best, or free or happy.
Becoming Bella
I have this strong woman inside me, she disappears on me rather often. There is only a shadow of her, but I know she is there. I can feel her sometimes. She is there. Here.
Becoming Bella
There are a few questions I have, these are questions I am not listening to, I guess doubt would describe it better. I am not listening to the doubts. I push on.
”To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”
Oscar Wilde
There was a time a few short years ago, when I was making my living by committing crimes, where I really believed I was living my best life. I lived by a code of conduct, I had my hand in a lot cookie jars so to speak. I multi tasked if you will. Anyway, for a while maybe I was living my best life, considering. I always had lots of cash, I was my own boss. I ran my life like I had a legit job. I called customers and promoted my goods, I had a daily log of what came in and what went out. I took profits from one area and reinvested into other areas of my said liking or interest. I collected on debts or accounts owed and kept client relations on a happy note. It was an adventure. Or misadventure. Reckless is what it was. I wouldn’t want to do it again, live like that but I did do things I never thought I’d do, experienced a way of life that is completely outlaw and made some friends with the oldest coolest cats I know. Real OG.
Now, I have to ask myself, am I living boldly now? No. I am living quietly. I am resettling into life. Readjusting. My boyfriend Andy and I don’t go out a lot. I am trying to figure what to do with my life as we speak, poor Andy, he is trying to give me ideas. Its a lot of work, being my boyfriend. As I reflect on this and realize I could be living better, perhaps I will take a moment now and mindfully look at my life. Where could I improve on something, anything? I have to keep into consideration my knee and leg are still unable to carry my weight, so what can I do? I cant drive yet. Well, I did start this blog, or rather just started paying attention to it. So maybe right now, I am doing the best version available of living boldly. I started writing again. I started playing with graphic art again. I think this mindful moment I just had was very productive!
Attention!!
Considering my current situation, I am living boldly! I am taking risks when I post something I write. I love to write. Right now, this is my best life! I am so glad I did today’s prompt. I wrote myself into my my own truth I hadn’t taken the time to see and I am happy to say, this is living boldly for me!!
