  • Happy New Year….Letting Go of the Year of Personal Meltdowns

    august-to-october-2008-275Wow! What an amazing year it has been. I had about four meltdowns, financial, health, love and possibly letting go of my home. I have learned with each experience, that the next one is easier.  All this restructuring in the middle of the madhouse of this financial meltdown in the world has made me feel like this cartoon that came out in the Miami Herald today: http://www.miamiherald.com/opinion/jim-morin/image_media/831682.html.

    I look forward to 2009 with a fresh outlook. I see the statistics that the economy is going to be worse. But with all these meltdowns behind my belt, I know I can now withstand any storm. The key is to stay in trust, focus, faith and surrender to something greater. Sounds simple. It is not easy, but it is the best way. Cheers to a better year for everyone!

  • The Seeds are Sprouting from the Pods

    seeds-in-podIt has been about two months since I was actively engaged in this blog. So many things have happened in this time. I created this blog with my sister and was waiting for her to “get going.” In the meantime, I did a 21 day video process and shared my process about my financial meltdown there. I was giving my sister, Maria, time to digest an accelerated process that I probably took six years to integrate. 

    So I stopped bugging her to “get going.” In this video, I talk about sharing clips from last year with Maria when together we created our dream to work together. I also talk about how we value ourselves. Right now she is busy with her day job and responsibilities of family. Only time will tell if the seeds that were planted last year will come to sprout for us to work together.

  • Bailout for a Company Spiraling to its Death

    The talks this week of the bailout for the auto industries has brought much opposing sides. On the one hand, if they are not bailed out, many people will be losing their jobs. If they file bankruptcy protection, they may emerge  out of this stronger than steel. It’s tough either way.

    Sometimes the “death” of something is really giving life to something else in a symbolic way. Death symbolically is letting go of something that is not working anymore. It is like the snake shedding its dry old skin. I myself, last year experienced the abyss like alot of people, But beyond the abyss there is new pasture, a new grounding place.  The oppportunities are there. While we are moving from here to there, it may feel like we are falling into an abyss, which some people may call it death. But really, the best way to ride that abyss is by being held in the arms of God, angels, guides, friends, family or anyone special in your life to help you get to the new destination. (more…)
