J.K Rowling talks to Harvard graduates about how she felt as a failure during her dark times as a single mom. Rock bottom was the foundation of how she lived her life. She says she had no idea how far the tunnel was and that the light at the end of the tunnel was just a hope. The rest as they say is history.
This video gave me a burst of inspiration as she talks about using imagination. Listen to the whole thing as it is worth listening to.
A Valentine's Heart Decoration I Saw At A Window Display
My last post titled, Inspired, Rooted & Ready, I wrote about the pieces of the puzzle coming together. Besides this blog being my catharsis for change, it is also a behind the scenes look at how I perservered in my struggles these last two years.
I have found collaberation with two of my cousins in Colombia on my Spanish blog. That is, after all, where my roots are. (more…)
Mosaic In Lobby of A Condo in South Beach Called Mosaic
It’s been just over 21 days since my last post bringing in the new year. They say it takes 21 days to develop a new habit. Luckily, I have the habit of eating well and exercising, so I didn’t have to put those on my resolution list.
For me, it is now creating a structure and more order with all the new opportunities that have opened up for me. It’s continuing to put together the pieces of the puzzle like the picture of the mosaic in this post.Hopefully, one day it will all of sudden take shape. I trust it now much more. (more…)

Because of my willingness and self motivation to invest many hours in learning all of this, I am reaping the rewards of this time and effort by creating a new way to make income. I believe the best motivation comes from being inspired. (more…)
I have had the privilege of having a true friend for over 20 years. She was always “crazy Alina” always doing something. We have shared so many life events, our kids growing up, marriages, divorces, much laughter and some moments of tears. We are in actuality very much opposites though similar in many ways. We both love to give love.
Her whole focus has been on her family and her kids. I have never met anyone who has so many people around her. When her kids were growing up her home was grand central station. We have traveled together with our kids as single moms and though there were some periods of us not seeing each other, we always picked up where we left off.
I have never seen someone work as hard as this woman. Many people see her success now and say, “I want your life.” Yes, it is great, but she deserves it because she has toiled and labored for every dime she has earned. Being able to see how she operates behind the scenes has taught me a lot about the power of focused intention. (more…)
