READ ONLY IF YOU KNOW HOW :-)

Welcome friends to the first day of spring 2013! Too bad it feels like nov. still lol, yes that's right it is STILL very chilly and cold out. Has been a very cold and nippy day, but it was nice and sunny. I gazed out the window this morning, noticing how sunny and nice it looked outside and I thought to myself "wow today is going to be somewhat warmer" nevertheless I was wrong lol. Looks can be very deceiving when it comes to the weather here in my region. Not a huge eventful day...my day consisted of waking at 6:30a.m. actually got a decent night of rest for once in quite some time. So by 7:15 I was out the door and then the cold hit me...BAM! Fooled lol, had to go back inside to change to warmer clothing then back out the door lol. By 8:30 I had six promos/commercials recorded, then it was off to do other works that I do..which is many..too many lol. I finally got back home around 4:00p.m. only to get ready for the private yoga class to begin at 4:30ish. So then close to 5:30ish or so Yoga wrapped up. Then I went straight to My Reiki/prayer meditation room for approx: 35 mins. Once I was able to decompress a bit I started on my Reiki studies, by this time it was sooo time to put food in my body lol. As I was taking a break and eating I received atleast six different calls from "friends" wanting my time or wanting a favor...not ONE asked how I was or anything of that nature. So after finishing up the calls and feeling like an at&t operator, I felt the need to go back into meditation for at least an hour or so. Upon "waking" from my meditation...I kinda realized something about people and friends...of course something I already kinda felt but during my meditation I get answers and blessings, clarity on issues and so forth. I came to see and realize TRUE friends are far and few...that is a bit hurtful, but we all have friends and a lot of folks talk about friendships. Everyone wants a true friend, and many of us believe that we have a friend who can be called a true friend. What kind of relations do friends share? When can we call a friend a true friend, and when can our friends take us as their true friend. After a romantic relationship, friendships are the most important relationships we can have. Though all of us have family and distant family, most of us rely on friends for advice, comfort and inspiration. How do we define a relation that can be called as one of true friendship one might ask well....in my opinion, the very first sign of a very good friend, not necessarily a true friend is that we are not worried about courtesies and such. You will call your friend at any hour and talk without any thought of time in your mind. Similarly, whenever you need support, you will call a very good friend and ask him/her to help you out. They expect the same from you. Another important trait of such relations is that we are not much worried about exposing ourselves to a true friend. We speak about everything on our minds without worrying about what our friends or others will think. We are sure that they will take our talk in the spirit it was made. We are unguarded and open with friends in our talk. A true friend is a little more than a very good friend. A true friend will support you even if it hurts his/her own interest. A true friend will understand your motives and needs and will be with you without any analysis or criticism or backstabbing. A true friend will come forward to help without any request and be with you  in times of need without showing it or expecting anything in return. With a true friend, you can be sure that you will get help to the best extent possible by him/her. Nothing will remain unturned. A mother is a true friend of her children...most mothers anyway. If we share such relations with an adult we can say that we are true friends. A true friend makes no excuses about anything but will be with you whenever your in dire need of him/her. In your hour of desperation, a true friend will support you even if the whole world opposes you. A true friend is not an opportunist. A true friend means to have someone who is like mother, as I said earlier.I would say a true friend is like a brother, but I know how siblings can be! Instead of having hundreds of good friends all over the world, from an array of backgrounds, if you have that one true friend, then consider  yourself lucky. If you can become a true friend to someone,you should and I believe you will be blessed.  It is much easier for all of us to expect, but very difficult to give. Be a true friend yourself first then see how the loving circle completes. THANK YOU for stopping by my personal little spot here on the worldwide web.

DO YOU LIKE TO GOSSIP?

It is just as cowardly to judge an absent person as it is wicked to strike a defenseless one. Only the ignorant and narrow-minded gossip, for they speak of persons instead of things.
--Lawrence G. Lovasik 


   Hi friends! It has been such a chilly cold day! I am so thankful spring is on it's way and then my favorite time of the year being summertime is coming sooner than later...I hope so anyway lol. Our weather here is quite bi-polar, , one day nice and sunny...the next cold and ick outside. Today friends I am just touching base on something WE ALL NEED NOT DO....GOSSIP
We all have done it on purpose or by accident either way everyone has done it at some point..BUT when it's a chronic thing....then THAT is a problem in many ways...but to keep this blog somewhat short Lets begin with the definition google has for the term GOSSIP....oh and by the way the meaning of GOSPEL is "good news"...moving on..
gos·sip  
/ˈgäsip/
-Noun: Casual or unconstrained conversation or reports about other people, typically involving details that are not confirmed as being true.
-Verb: Engage in gossip.

Have you ever played the game Telephone? You sit in a circle with a group of people and one person whispers a phrase to the person next to him or her. Then, each person keeps whispering the phrase around the circle until it reaches the last person, who repeats the whispered statement out loud. What started out as "Pizza tastes great" can end up as "Pete's a great ape!" It's funny to laugh at how twisted the sentence became as it got passed around. Gossip can work the same way, but it's not so funny. In fact, it can be very hurtful. Have you ever gossiped or been gossiped about? I am guilty of gossip...I think everyone is at some point in life. I chose to try NOT to gossip and I know what it feels like to be the GOSSIP topic so to speak and it does hurt...especially when the crap is 100% FALSE!  Let's talk a bit about gossiping.
!!!Talking about peopld Versus Gossiping about people!!!
Talking is how you spread your thoughts, ideas, and experiences to people around you. It's NOT always wrong to talk about other people. There's nothing wrong with telling your friends, "I like hanging out with John doe. He tells the funniest stories!" Those words don't hurt anyone. But when you SAY mean things, tell stories that you're not sure are TRUE, or reveal information you know is supposed to remain PRIVATE, you're spreading gossip. What if you saw funny john doe go into the principal's office and you started wondering if he was in trouble. There's nothing wrong with wondering that, but what if you started telling other people you think Johns in big trouble. You really don't know why he was in the principal's office, right? But before you know it, everyone is talking about how John is in trouble and imagining why. Maybe he put his rubber snake in the teacher's desk, someone says. Maybe he punched a kid who didn't laugh at one of his jokes, another person suggests. John doesn't come back to class for a long time, but when he does, everyone wants to know what happened in the principal's office.  John might be a little angry or confused about all the questions, especially when he explains, "I went to the principal's office because my mom was there to take me to a doctor appointment."
That's how RUMORS work. They start small and often blow up into something TOTALLY different from the TRUTH....THIS friends is an example of how childish and hurtful GOSSIP can be. Even in my own personal Life I STILL weekly hear rumors and GOSSIP about  myself...one day it may be about my personal relationships...next day might be about who my elite friends are and what I am "involved" in. ALL of this is hurtful to me and honestly pisses me off to the core...sorry for sounding harsh but people need to grow the hell up and grow a LIFE lol.
Your probaly wondering by now why I chose Gossip as the topic for todays blog. Well I had been thinking of blogging about this subject....however when a ridiculous rumor comes my way pertaining ME and MY LIFE....well needless to say that is what sparked me to do this topic today. I am fed up to the core with folks...Locals especially gossiping about me as a person.
I even have so called certain "friends" gossip and make up total lies about me for NO apparent reason...there is NEVER EVER a good reason to make something up about ANYONE!
The most recent rumor i heard about myself was that I am a cocaine freak LOL I am serious! When i was told this I laughed but also got very angry....SO whoever came up with that one...YOU need to be a bit more creative with your gossip lol. I have many health issues as i have mentioned before...meaning I get bloodwork and labwork MONTHLY...I am sure if i was a "coke freak" My doctors would have a problem with it lol. MY point being I dont use drugs except for what I am prescribed for my health issues. I dont even drink alcohol...let alone a substance like cocaine lol. Now I have NOTHING against using herbal remedies for health and relaxation. SO TO CLEAR THE AIR the only thing I am a freak about is LIFE! yes you heard right Im a life freak...meaning I am addicted to trying to LIVE in a Peaceful Happy manner.  To those of you who say you are my friends....I know with my high intuition who is who....i will leave it at that. SOON I will be calling ALL of these so called "friends" out on what I feel they have done or said behind my back. In conclusion today I have chose a scripture as todays affirmation, for it pertains to gossiping and people who have negative secret agendas against you or me.
                                                                   ISAIAH 54:17
"But in the coming day, NO weapon formed against YOU will succed/prosper. YOU"
will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the
servants of the Lord; their vindication will come from me. I, the Lord, have spoken!
Isaiah 54:17 Holy Bible/NIV version

a true LIFE FREAK lol...feel free to use this photo to scare the mice away haha!

   As always friends, Thank you for stopping by my blog! I enjoy YOUR feedback so feel free to comment, share, etc. But NO gossiping LOL!  Thank you....Truly, DENNIS the "LIFE FREAK" :-)

Did you know that you are SPECIAL??

Hello friends, today has been a good day for me personally...nothing too eventful but good. I hope if you are reading this YOU too are having a good day/night! I may be suffering today some what from the fibromyalgia but I try my best to keep positive and KNOW things can only get better...as long as I do my part too. My personal belief is that whatever task or duty I am doing at any moment...IF things get to be to much on me, then that is where My Father GOD takes over.....he never puts too much on me to bear.....even though I still have times of great suffering and sadness....I always still have that sliver of PEACE knowing that my creator has me in his hands. It is possible to be happy and be suffering at the same time....I know this from many days trust me lol. Today I want to mention how it is very necessary to be thankful for the good, bad, and the ugly, lol. By now your thinking I am crazy lol....but in all honesty WE learn from the Good, bad, and ugly parts of Life. I believe it makes us stronger as individuals and helps us to understand another's pain and such. So today I am going to do an affirmation about being thankful, this is not ONLY for me but for YOU the reader also....so when you see the "I" in the below affirmation....read it for YOU and from your perspective.
                                                           I am Thankful
I am thankful I was born and I am glad to be alive. Everyday now I can and will try my best to celebrate my existence. I have a purpose. I am Important. I have a place in my community. I choose to surround myself with positive people who care. My higher power will continually guide me and make me aware of my right to be here in the now. I have a mission in this life, and I take daily steps to complete this mission. My Presence is essential, my presence is felt. At times it is difficult to be thankful when I frown upon painful events and continually feel affected by their outcome. I am responsible only for my part in life's daily tasks. I can continue to make new choices and change my path to grow in positive directions. I am important! My Ideas count, my feelings count, and I am needed! I will continually celebrate my existence.......BE THANKFUL AND CELEBRATE YOUR LIFE!
      Thanks for stopping by my blog friends! As always I love your feedback so feel free to comment, share,

Wonder what your purpose in Life is??? Yep, me too :-)

Hi Friends here  we are on this sunday evening march third already! WOW time is ticking... I'm starting today with a small affirmation about Lifes purpose...something all of us ponder at some point in life or if your like me quite often lol. Friends ALL of my affirmations are for YOU also, so feel free to say them aloud in the mirror. I know that may sound quirky....but SO WHAT....I am living MY life just like you are living YOUR life.
                                                      In my Journey 
"I have PURPOSE here on earth and I will continue to strengthen my direction in life"
At times my direction gets confusing, and I end up floundering around, searching for
my bearing. When I take to remind myself that the Higher power is guiding my journey,
I feel tranquil and at peace....many times through out my life, my energies were blocked
by inability to separate myself from the emotions of others. As I grew older, I began to
take on the feelings of others as though those feelings were my own...I became sad, fatigued
and much more..I even found myself being consumed with busyness. TODAY I will not live
in ANY extremes. I have PURPOSE! I will celebrate the miracle of being alive, and I will feel
the harmony that comes when I channel my energy into ONLY good and positive directions.
HOPE THIS LITTLE AFFIRMATION HELPS YOU TO BETTER UNDERSTAND ME
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY...YOU.


     So now I will share with you how I personally try to Find What the Purpose of Life is For  Me...and I am no expert on life...but I am an expert in caring for others and myself in anyway I am able, so moving on..  What is the purpose of life for you? Finding and clarifying your life purpose and core life intentions can help you to move with greater focus and clarity every day of your life. Especially in these challenging times, setting clear intentions and developing and refining our life purpose can make it much easier to navigate stormy waters. There are many ways to both find and develop your purpose & intentions. This little tid bit of info is to inspire you to be all that you can be and to lead an ever richer, fuller life. Something everyone of us needs...we are ALL on the same planet....we ALL are in human form..A great way that I personally try to start exploring lifes purpose and intentions is to stop for a moment and ask yourself these two key questions:
What is most important to me in my life?  What are my deepest values and beliefs?
     Give yourself time to explore these important questions and notice what touches and inspires you most deeply. Write down any answers or thoughts that come to you as you ponder these questions. Then use what you've written as a basis upon which to craft your life purpose and intentions. Consider also inviting the divine guidance and your own inner wisdom to help you with this....Though both can be valuable, there is a difference between life purpose and life intentions. Your life purpose is generally a single statement related to the overall reason that you feel you are here. What is the greater purpose behind your being alive? Why are you here in the world? Life intentions are any number of profound statements about the way you want to live your life. How do you want to be and act in the world right now and in each moment? When you are confronted with major challenges, on what core principles do you want to base your decisions and actions? Both life purpose and life intentions can be rich and valuable in helping to move through the challenges life brings us, though some will prefer focusing on one over the other. If you find this process somewhat challenging, you might do best to focus on one first. Choose whichever feels right and best to you. Later you can always come back and work on the other. I hope this tid bit made a little sense to somebody out there in this dying world in which we live. Feel free to share, comment and so forth. I always love your feedback good & bad....Thanks for stopping by my own personal little spot on the worldwide web. Blessings to You all! ---Dennis
