Water Finds It's Own Level

   You have heard that water finds it's own level but many people do not understand it's meaning.  It's meaning is very relevant to any discussion on attraction or perception.  Like attracts like right?  here's another one; you can't soar with eagles if you hang with turkeys.  And the ever popular; your are judged by the company you keep.  Now let's add in one more; if you insist on playing in the dirt you will get dirty.  If you are someone who reads the bible it will tell that merely thinking about committing a sin is sin itself.  the theory is that if you contemplate something long enough it will become more acceptable, less daunting and will in time, come to fruition.  The message is perfectly clear and coming at you in many directions.  It is absolutely essential that you avoid people and situation that do not enhance the experience of your life.  You cannot not be with addicted people or dishonest people and believe you can remain unscathed by them and their actions.  If you surround yourself with people that do not support your beliefs or values they will bring you down.  If you choose a relationship with someone and you love on different levels share different goal and you do not hold the same perception of loyalty it will fail and you will be hurt.

  Let your inner voice double as a mirror to locate like souls and you find love and success, joy is an attachment of yoking yourself with the right people.  It mentions that in the bible as well.  Do you suppose a christian woman would find happiness with a non believing man who ran with a crowd that drank and gambled?  Do you suppose she would find great pain and wonder why has she been forsaken in this love.  She was not forsaken she used her free will to choose wrong.  We do this all the time.   

  Choose wisely in your relationships.  Associate with peoploe who support your beliefs and value.  Do not associate with someone who acts in a way that is not in line with how you disire your life to be decorated.  You can love many people in many ways for many reasons but in the end if your end result desires are not in line the outcome is not going to be one of joy.  You must choose joy.  it is choice that is made when you choose wisely and when an aligment does not feel right do not let it take presidence.  Don't ignore the red flags. We always see them but we somehow believe they will change color, but they don't.  why make your journey more difficult by choosing associations that are not blended and headed the same way.  It's al about choices, choose wisely. 

  When you become connected with kindred spirits the relationship and the growth and the happiness even minor discord are easily and naturally experienced.  Choose joy.....

Mind & Body Connection

  Mind Body Connection

Anyone who doesn't get the connection is going to have a problem. First and formost I have to say you look better than you think you do.  No joke.  We are all so hard on ourselves. 

  I read an article once; I cut it out and kept it because it made a huge impact me.  If I could find it I would post credit to the author and quote it, but I can't.  It was an interview with several men who said that woman with perfect bodies, (who are they, right?) are far and few between even a supposed ten is really an eight and a half if you really look close.  But they said that they became bored with woman who were to obsessed with thier body image to focus n the experience.  The hot ones were all posey and the sixes were sheet huggers.  What they really loved were woman who were comfortable confident and were focused on being presnet and connected both to them and the experience.  Confidence is by far the sexiest attribrute a woman can possess.

  All of them said that a woman who was extremely comfortable in her own skin was by far the hottest.  I don't think that you should jump on the couch with a box of twinkies and a milkshake, that may be getting a little to comfortable, but we do have to lighten up.  No more obsessing and chasing the all to alusive perfection.  I think comfort with your body image is just more honest you and for anyone your with.  

  If you are doing your best,  getting enough rest, watching the alcohol intake, exercising and following a healthy eating plan annnnd....... practicing gratitude for every part of your body everyday then your job is done! There will always be someone who would rather have your body than their own.  Remember to be greatful.  Be thankful and find a way to be comfortable.   More on meditaion and diet later...gratitude and comfort first.
