  • Something is Stirring in America

    flag-eagle-carI have never been much of a politically involved individual as I have found myself to be this past week. As the Olympics came to an end, and as we finished watching the performances of Americas heroes such as Michael Phelps and Shannon Johnson and  many others, I was on a high. Throughout the Olympics, I was glued to the television set each night as I watched these athletes perform and reach to accomplish the dreams that they have had, many as young children. I was in awe by the idea of how all these athletes  have had their heroes journey, many overcoming many obstacles to get to that point and never giving up because that is what it takes.                       

     Then the  Olympics gave way to the Democratic National Convention and again I found myself glued to the TV each night.  I listened to the story of Barack Obama, an unlikely candidate and a Black American  running for the office of President of the  United States. I listened to his speech last night and could not help but feel my passion reignited once again to dream and hope for a better tommorrow. Yes I know that this is what candidates are supposed to do, but something happened to me as I heard him say.    ” Something across America is stirring.” All I could hear myself saying at that moment was, my God I hope so. He spoke of the American Dream of what we are all hoping for:  a better life for our families and the next generation to come.

    I felt myself getting excited and feeling that energy run through my veins. Wake up America!!!!!  We all need to resurrect our Hopes Dreams and Desires. I could feel myself saying and feeling this as I heard his words and felt them all throughout my being. We have all become way too complacent to reaching for the stars  and reaching for those hopes dreams and desires of which heroes are made of.

     
    We are living in a world of uncertainty, facing issues of economic recession, global warming and continued political unrest in the Middle East. If anything, what Barack Obama did last night in his speech is reignite those dreams that we can as a nation, as a community and that I can as an individual have those dreams of a better tommorrow.

    Someone said to me that America was not ready for a Black president. Well for one, he is of biracial parents so he is of both races.  I thought what a perfect metaphor, what a perfect way to be that bridge. When we can look past the color of our skin and focus on each other as individuals, then we are on our way to healing ourselves, our relationships and this nation. We will really be on our way to Resurrecting the Heroes that we are. We will be on our way to acomplishing all our hope dreams and desires. Yes I do believe it is possible. All it takes is that one spark.

    And to quote a less than politically influential character, buzz light year: ” To infinity and beyond!”

  • Time is Precious

    TIME: Where does it go? So much has happened in this summer. I let go of my crutch and in the first parent teacher meeting of the year, I walked all over my sons school, meeting all his teachers. I was able to walk freely. As they say, there is a time and a season for everything, and the season of the summer was the final season to let go and let all the fruits in. (more…)

  • Feeling my independence

    I accidentally left my one crutch that I am now using, on the side of the car and
drove off without it. I have been walking 30 percent of the time without it
around the house, but leaving the house completely without it, was like an independence.
 I went to the
grocery by myself and simply used the cart to lean when the swelling, that I
still have, bothered me. I felt "normal" again. These past months with all my
apparatuses, I felt confined, but necessary for healing my ankle and to get my
mind out of my work panic. I do feel more at ease and find myself more focused
and alert. I'm ready to move forward again in a new way. An instructor of one of
the real estate certifications I got this past month said that you have to be
like a chameleon in these times. You have to be able to adapt with what is going
on. For me, in real estate, I have to. I had no choice. Half of the listings are
foreclosures and short sales, where homeowners are upside down on what they owe.
vs. the value of the home. I know this affects many internally because of the
devaluation of our homes. But what is really "home"? Is it the structure we live
in? Or can it be something else, more intangible?

  • Your Focus Is The Key.

    Imagine, for just a moment with me that you are in this huge mansion with many doors, all different colors and shapes and with many different designs. You walk around and around trying to figure out which one should you attempt to go through and even see if it opens up. You ask yourself, ” Where are the keys, how do I open the door? ” Well this is a question I believe we are all faced with at some point in our lives. How do I open the door to the many possibilities that are available to me, how to I open the door to love, how do I open the door to seeing life as a wonderful canvas in which I am the painter, in which my hands, my words and my actions are the colors of which

  • Life Mirrors Our Reality

    mirror-cracked-tree-reflection1

    This is a post from my sister, Maria

    So much is going on right now with this financial crisis that I imagine we are all going through similar feelings of: Can we trust government? Can we trust the financial system? Can we trust our leaders? Can we trust the value of the dollar? Who can we trust?

    We cannot ignore the fact that our current global economy is definitely a mirror of our world and our society as it is today, and on a more individual level, who we are as individuals and what our compass in life has become. (more…)

  • Looking for New Energy Sources in my Body

    This post was written by my sister Maria:

    As I came home this evening I was feeling unusually tired, and as I sat down although feeling very tired I started to write this article and found myself becoming engrossed in the subject and forgot about being tired for the moment. I began to realize that I had gotten reenergized because I was doing my dream to write and inspire people.

    I couldn’t help but think of the issue of energy and a lack of energy which is something that I have dealt with for many years. Being overweight the last few years and having a lethargic metabolism, I am not one to exercise on a regular basis. I have not been able to get disciplined with this like my sister, Blanca has. My
