Make the choice to cherish the people in your life…
“In life there are always choices. I choose to spend this day cherishing my life and all the people who are in my life.” – Pamela Leavey

Today, I re-mind myself that an open heart that is sincere and compassionate fuels my own confidence and self-esteem as well as giving comfort and solace to others. I acknowledge that my open heart may be vulnerable to grief and sadness as well as happiness and joy, however all relationships bring teachings that we may learn from them. All relationships are assignments… There is something we must learn, something we must give, something we must receive in those assignments. This is all part of the lesson.
Namaste… Pamela

I am a woman with a huge capacity to love, yet I have spent much of my life single. It seems a strange dichotomy at times, especially when the heart has been freshly wounded by a failed attempt at a relationship. What was first joy and happiness borne of finding someone special, turns to pain and grief, when the reality sets in that a relationship is not meant to be.
In these times, when the heart aches for what might have been… I re-mind myself, I am abundant, I have love. I am blessed with the knowledge that my life is filled with wonderful family and friends who love me and I love each of them. I thank the Universe for each wonderful relationship in my life and I acknowledge, I am abundant, I have love.
Namaste… Pamela

It always seems so easy to shrink away from people in our lives when we are going through emotional pain, sadness and grief, but in truth, that is the time when we most need people in our lives.
“Our griefs tempt us to isolation. Our sorrows lead us towards secrecy. The wounded heart is reluctant to show itself, fearful in its vulnerability of being wounded anew. The great mystery is that in connection lies our protection. In openness we find our shield. The soul is a field of wind-tossed grasses, touched alike by sun and snow. Sharing our trials lessens our burdens. Baring our secrets brings us solace and peace.”
“Today, I step forward out of isolation. I communicate to someone my heart’s truth. I lay aside my defenses and allow my heart to be seen unshadowed by secrets or by sorrow. As I reveal myself, I am seen and accepted; I am protected and healed.” – Julia Cameron: Transitions

Life is always changing and evolving, nothing stays the same. We are not static beings, we are human and we are capable making conscious decision about who we are and how we live our lives on a day to day basis. This Louise Hay quite a great affirmation for those times of profound change we undergo in which we redefine who we are:
“I am constantly redefining who I am and how I want to live.” – Louise L. Hay
Namaste… Pamela
