The Unexpected

Well, who would have thought that yes, it can all happen at once. Who would have thought those opportunities that you have endlessly worked towards would come knocking at your door, you were always asking for it right? Well, now what? I mean, it all was planned out perfectly in your head, planner, but reality & the time is now. To what do we usually react what we 'assume' (not wise) what we 'expect '(ooh get ready for let downs) but here we go..

THE UNEXPECTED.. there is no way that you can preview everything you have imagined in your life all creeping in at once, is there? No :) Your health, your passions, your goals, all the opportunities present themselves PUM... just like that. Your heart/soul, well, it's beside it self dancing wildly, screaming AAAoooo! Your brain is telling you: o.k. here/now is where the work ethic and intelligence are in their greatest demand. You have to learn how to delegate your energy, time, projects, life... too much into one area can throw off the balance that you have worked so hard to create.

The above being said, there are times when those balances are off, but they are off to pull you in the right direction. Once you get there, everything goes back to it's homeostatic balance, it all becomes clear, things fall into place, and you reach a calm in your soul like you never imagined. Like the song states in "When Love Takes Over" - It's complicated, it always is, feels like I've waited so long for this, I wonder if it shows... I'm underwater & I can't breathe, it never felt so good, cause I can feel it coming over me, I wouldn't stop it if I could... you know you can't deny... something is here... Apply those feelings to one of the many unexpected reactions you have in life - THE UNEXPECTED.

It's not when you plan that you grow as a person, but when your path throws all THE UNEXPECTED across it and how you deal with it. Your intentions, your goals, your purpose. Are you invested in what is being presented to you, are your motivations sincere... are you ready for things to get a little bumpy? Now is not the time to stop, now is the time to dive into all the things that magnetically strip away the wall you work around on a daily basis. Instead, bring the one you reveal when you are working on your passions. Laws of Attraction.. for every action there is a reaction, again... I am a firm believer in the affirmation -I am in the right place, at the right time, for the right purpose - It's not an excuse, it's the reality of life, the gift you have been given, you are meant to live it. What ever you believe in ... remember.. you are never given more than you can handle, what we were all given to follow is a whole different world now, how we are in life, in business, so please, STEP OUTSIDE THE BOX and take in all THE UNEXPECTED as a gift. One that reveals itself as an opportunity to become a better human being. Life is what you make of it, not what you have been handed, we would of never advanced in anything if we lived by that motto of "IT IS WHAT IT IS" nope... "IT IS WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT". Do something, feel something, create something, but don't wait for it to come to you, for if you sit around too long, or spend all of your time second guessing it, guess what, THE UNEXPECTED might just happen & it can all be gone just as fast as it came. Don't take opportunities for granted... if that happens that door gets closed in a way it will never open again. Don't whine for what you don't have, spend that energy on what you do want, on what makes you happy, what energizes the motivation in your life.

Ah yes, the unexpected - Be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it, THE UNEXPECTED. Leave no stone unturned. Time to go work it, enjoy it, keep at it. DALE!

Bulletproof... this time honey.... ♥♫♥

Today was a triple digit day.. a day to reflect... take the little things and appreciate them.... you are living in times that will not repeat, having moments that you couldn't wish for or fathomed that would come across your path, (told you it was going to get bumpy), opportunities that you invite follow through, or shut the door and say "NEXT"

Take a step back... I will BLOG tomorrow off some music that inspired me tonight.... sometimes we have to be patient for the things that we want so when we truly get them, TRULY, we can appreciate it, savor it, and make it last. Let life reveal it self... let that light inside of you shine it rubs off in so many ways that will leave you smiling continuously.



BLESSINGS

Gravity ♥♫♥

♥♫♥
When my brother was 16 he wrote a poetry book. One of his poems was called "Life" - Irony. Doesn't it just stick?

What draws us all in? What is the magnetism? What is it that we are searching for? Why is it our curiosity always thinks that it is better on the other end when we have no idea? Hmmmm.....Let's give it a little bit of thought tonight... look at it from a different point of view.

Ahhh Gravity ♥♫♥. That feeling that starts in your stomach and it's a mixture between excitement and a nervousness that makes you feel like you need to shout! What is that? It's passion. It's rare, it will make you nuts at times, but take it. Be honest when someone matters don't miss the opportunity, the moment, even if it is just that... you never know what tomorrow may bring (so spare me a horrible events, weather, or a loss to remind you the time is now).

When two people are drawn together there is no force or ability in our minds to control MAGNETISM (you will uncontrollably be drawn)/GRAVITY (you will fall into each-other) it brings everything you have ever wanted full circle right to the forefront. It makes you vulnerable and VULNERABILITY is absolutely fine. If anything it takes strength to be vulnerable as much of a contradiction as that may seem. You will be o.k. You can only give yourself the gift of passion if you are willing to allow it into your space.... if you let someone "Take you the way" you are.

Stop for a second, take a step back take a snapshot in your mind (or pull out the camera (always) and realize in your life, if lucky you will find that GRAVITY, if blessed you will have the support system in your pursuit of happiness. When you are happy with that someone in your life that is the cause of the emotion (yes the kind of person you can have full conversations with looks, and you usually want to cut out of an event or at least for a few) that happiness/passion what ever you choose to call it, pours onto the rest of your relationships - family, friends, work, & then that pours onto your success/health/outlook.

What brings us back to someone? What is that draw? No matter what we say or do.. they are with you all the time. You can feel their embrace even when they aren't touching you. "Fall another moment in your gravity" Sarah Bareilles song Gravity. Wow so true. Someone is onto you, they know exactly what it is that devours your attention. They are onto everything that it is you want.... how can or do you let that go?

To be continued....

Leave self absorption to sponges.

Nothing like having someone say something to you to make you realize that not even the best intentions can break through a narcissistic personality. Is self absorption the new IN? It really is one of those breaking points... it's why photography is so admired. Sometimes if you hear the noise, the sound, or words come out of this amazing shot.. it could damage it! No, you don't think I really believe that do you? The only thing that can damage are the words you choose to say, how you choose to say them, and did you connect your brain to your audio skills before you opened your mouth? Probably not.

Photography is beautiful. If done right it takes you to moments... moments that you keep (like the ones you keep in your heart/soul) and they truly are yours. You not only view it, you see yourself in it, feel it, hear it...

Now I'm getting off the point...squirrel.... I've said it so many times.. but let's spin the record ONE MORE TIME. Ready... check one, check, check, KINDNESS is not to be confused with WEAKNESS & if you went there (took it all for granted)... I'm sorry that you missed the whole point. I will not even take the time to understand someone that really is so full of themselves they missed growing, acknowledging, appreciating that yes the world is tough, you need to be a little selfish, be careful, keep some guards up, BUT you WILL cross honest, strong, sincere people. If you are used to getting what you want by using fillers, stomping through people, then enjoy the ride it doesn't last. You might reach a point quickly but you better grab onto it with the jaws of life cause it will be that much harder to retain something you did not earn. I know harsh.. but it's true.

We live in a society where patience, goodness, kindness is consistently tested. Will you step & leave footprints with good intentions? The results will not always be what you expected but it's your intentions that are the point. It seems easy for people to take the easy road, which not facing the facts, dishonesty seem much harder to me, but hey I'm just observing.AT the END of the DAY you have to look at yourself in the mirror, and it's your reflection you have to ♥♫♥. So how are you doing so far? See right through to you... now some wise words from a young woman - (also champagne celebration scattered words this evening :O) cheers) - I truly admire.. she took what I said and summed it up better than I could of jabbered all night ;O) zzzz....


"Narcissism is the new black.
I can say this without any hesitations. If New York Runways are the stage for up coming fashion seasons around the world, then our daily sidewalks have become our own stages to shine upon. This season I feel has gone dark, very dark – cave like. It’s a cold and damp look - so buyer beware its so heavy that our heads can’t surface above the shoulders. One must hang upside down like a bat from inside the cave; this emotional vampire can now suck the life out of anyone. Just always be cautious for these bats swarm and leave no prisoners. Avoid becoming fashion road kill for no one wears jealousy well.
Bats don’t know that you will never shine in a dark room… KML"


Moving forward... let's just say, never regret anything that made you smile.

Life Observations & Photography ♥♫♥

What a year... getting settled... taking a good look around... what can you do? Observe. I have always had a passion for observing the atmosphere, life, I take an active role but it's good to sit back and watch carefully. Sometimes you have to take a step back and take a good look around at the interactions. Some are direct, close to perfect, others are this constant game that you wonder what are your intentions? So what did I do? I picked up the camera..

a passion I've had for a a very long time. The result, moments... people... events... why so many pictures? It gives you a chance to take a step back and look at what matters and what doesn't. It helps understand your surroundings when you are & are not in the moment. It helps make observations of who has the actual creases in the smiles & who is just playing possum in your space.

There is a lot of chasing going on in South Florida. There is also a lot of catching but I don't see the appreciation after the fact. Call me crazy but I believe in treating people the way you wish to be treated... "Hi my name is Crazy" " Hi Crazy" Is it really who you know, how you look, what you have, what you can offer? I'm direct... this is me. Yes "Less is More" as my mentor has taught me, BUT... let's get to the point shall we? What are you waiting for? Why pass up moments? Why pass up an opportunity willing to give you everything you wanted? Scared? Fine. Grow up. Deal with it. We live in a time where it just seems to be flying by so are you going to enjoy the day or let life pass you by so quickly that you will say, " I wish I, I should of..." Too little too late.

We settle into lives due to what is ideal, but what about what makes us happy? Can you truly be honest with your mate so you can have the best of what this world has to offer? I know I don't want to settle, I know I don't want to be one of those people that draw an ultimatum but in life you should only surround yourself by those striving for more, and good energy. It really is true, you can find the most beautiful person you have ever seen but you want them to stay quiet for if they talk it's ruined? Yes take care of yourself, FOR YOU, but beauty truly comes from within. If you truly project something better the outside will match that energy or get there soon enough. Patience... something I'm good at depending on the situation...but I'm human. I wanted it yesterday. Selflessness something I'm great at.. now hit the Yang... I want it all too. Is that wrong? Isn't it if you put forth the effort without ever asking for it , or expecting it, it will come back to you?

I'm trying to cram a year of moments, adventures, music, talent, photography, opportunities, all into one blog and it just isn't going to happen so lets just go out like this. We live in a very grey society. Figure yourself out, and don't feel the need to have to have a reason for your actions other than you are trying to live you best life possible. We live in a modern age full of opportunities. Appreciate, grow, strive, mentor, and if you can't back up your talk with actions then shhhhhhhhh please...Life is too short for waiting around.♥♫♥
