Elvis Presley once said…

“Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain’t goin’ away.” -Elvis Presley

How true is that? We know the truth, and yet we try cover it up with the curtains material goods, cloud the truth with addictive behaviors. A rain of tears cannot stop the the truth from shining through. We act cold and try to ignore the truth, yet the warmth of it eventually melts our defenses. Once we accept the truth, like the sun, we radiate, bask and shine! So we need to ask ourselves, do we prefer to be in the dreary weather, slumped shouldered and heavy with ignoring our truth, or stand expansive and light in the sunshine of our being?

iamjoy Oh Joy I Am!

Oh the Places You'll Go.

Kay Walten is a dear friend and a contributor to this site. Kay has authored this inspiring blog and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!  Love & Light, Indrani.

This past week we have been talking about the upcoming Virtual JOY Event: INHALE LIFE, EXHALE JOY .  It is exciting as we get the bios of all the people who will be sharing their joy at the event.  In one of the emails going back and forth as we brain stormed, some one put in the subject line:  iamjoy OH JOY I AM!  and she laughed maybe she could write a Dr. Seuss book.

I started to look… about if I could,  about if I should, do it this week, write in a way that Dr. Seuss would speak! Then I read some things great and small, and found something he wrote that applies to us all.

 

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You’re on your own.
And you know what you know.
And YOU are the one who’ll decide where to go.

You won’t lag behind, because you’ll have the speed.
You’ll pass the whole gang and you’ll soon take the lead.
Wherever you fly, you’ll be the best of the best.
Wherever you go, you will top all the rest.

I’m sorry to say so
But, sadly it’s true
That bang-ups and hang-ups
Can happen to you.

On and on you will hike, And I know you’ll hike far
and face up to your problems whatever they are.
You’ll get mixed up of course, as you already know.
You’ll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go.

So be sure when you step.
Step with care and great tact
And remember that Life’s a great balancing act.

Just never forget to be dexterous and deft.
And never mix up your right foot with your left.

Will you succeed?
Yes you will indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)

I read these lines with a smile on my face, & thought of how joy can bring us to the same place.  I invite you to be there, where ever you are, it makes no difference how close or how far.  So if we INHALE LIFE we are sure to see, we will EXHALE JOY its got to be!

If you want to be there and there without fail, you can sign up right here and you’ll get an email.

I LIKE it

I have been following the events in Japan with teary eyes and a sad heart. The catastrophe is much greater than expected. The effects of radiation will be seen in generations ahead. Then I noodle on iodine pills and how the intake of “good” iodine can stave off the uptake of the radioactive iodine, to prevent thyroid cancers.

That simple statement had me thinking about what we humans have to do to stave off negativity from people who “vomit their radioactive energy” all over us… at any damn time they feel like it.

And there she was… a beautifully negative woman… sitting right in front of me and smiling like she meant it.

I mentioned the Flash Mob and she immediately said, “Forgive me for not being joyful but I have been around dancing all my life”…

I was quite taken aback, but if you know me, I do not give up that easily

so I said….

Did you see all the women our age who had fun?

She replied, “Well you had 200 people and I spent the day with 5000 dancing queens (meaning drill team)”

I said, “NO I will not accept that, The Flash Mob was awesome and you missed out” and I turned away and began another conversation.

She did not infect me!!!

WHY?

Becauese I had my uptake of the good iodine… I was full of pure unpasteurised JOY.!

TRY it… Keep JOY in your lives… it will protect you from folks who “vomit their negative vibes” all over your sweet life.

FLASH MOB …yes we did!!!

How wonderful it feels to WAGE JOY!
Happy faces, engaging smiles,shrieks of joy… All things that we experienced TODAY.
We danced and we high five’d each other and our cheeks were tired from grinning.
If you were not with us, we missed you.
If you want to experience what we felt, I URGE you to FIND something JOYFUL to do and do it with all your heart and soul.

If you find yourself afraid of being too joyful you are not alone.  Tell us what is preventing you from experiencing joy.
Dr. Brené Brown said that we are more afraid of joy than we are of pain.
I invite you to invite JOY into your life.
Look on YouTube under favorite videos and check out the photos on Facebook to see what we felt!

The Meaning of Love & Other Stuff…

Love by jmscottlMD, on flickrA few days ago I started a FB thread with a simple question – What do you consider the first day of the week?

25 People answered:

1.  21 said Monday 0.84%

2.  2 said Sunday 0.08%

3.  1 said Saturday 0.04%

4.  1 said None  0.04%

I would like for you to extrapolate those percentages to the numbers of people you have in your life and come up with some realistic numbers for yourself.

Now I would like you to ask this question: what does LOVE mean?

February 14 is a day when we are swamped with the Meaning of LOVE.

Red flowers… But only roses.

Diamonds… and if there are in a heart shape, well is that not just the cutest?

It can also mean surprising your lover with notes or rose petals on the bed or two people who probably hate baths to take a romantic bubble bath and hear violins and a Barry White voice in the background.

Now, when you take the time to realize that a certain percentage of those lovers will all have different answers…

Is there any wonder that “February 14th” is one of the MOST confusing days of the year?

What if your lover is the one to say “Saturday” and you have never heard of Saturday as the first day of the week, might you assume that they are crazy but certainly not crazy for you? Or maybe you can accept their “Saturday”, but damn it, you will have them saying “Monday” in no time because that was your answer.

This Valentine’s Day, try this one for size: try figuring out what it means to LOVE yourself and start to practice unconditional self love. It really is the only hope we have to understand why we do what we do and why we expect what we expect from others.

Would it not be so great if you could declare every day a day of self acceptance and then maybe we can accept others for their Mondays or Sundays or Saturdays and we would never question the veracity of their responses.

We would just celebrate differences and maybe then we would really understand about LOVE.

Just my two cents.

Happy Hallmark created Holiday!

Valentines by Spixey, on flickr

Are you mad with your significant other today because they did not TREAT YOU RIGHT?

Are you quite perplexed that person had the NERVE to NOT follow the created expectation of The Hallmark Created Holiday?

Do you usually see yourself as following rules that others create for the sole benefit of putting money into their pockets?

Am I being cynical? Kinda sorta. Please do not get me wrong, I love LOVE and I love to get and give gifts BUT I feel really bad for people who for one reason or another cannot get the HANG of what others expect.

Maybe those of you who Are angry and disappointed about that special someone, can take a moment to ask WHY you are so upset?

OMG
