Thank &@! February is over… it was… whatever it was. The beautiful thing is that I have rediscovered a little something, a something deep down inside of myself. It is something I dont have words for, something that is everything and nothing at all.

I spoke with god again this morning, and “god” says to express its/his/her feelings on this matter…

you are what you eat, thoughts are things, and opinions are like a$$ ____. mind your own _______ business and leave mine alone.

I know that may seem in bad taste… if you feel that way, stop reading it. have a nice day.

It is the decisions we make that shape our life.

The greatest part of free will is the power to choose this over that, now or later, and so on.  It is a wonder how so many of us forget this or take it for granted.

The ability to decide the who, what, when, where and how is the key to designing your life, reality, and day-to-day experience.  Don’t merely take this as  a new age froo-froo theory or as a lighthearted, peace-loving positive statement, but instead treat it as fact.  Scientists the world over have found that our ability to reason, weigh our options, and decide is what allows us to “create” everything around us.

Think about this: all of the crap– even all of the other people’s crap– that you have to deal with stems from one decision or another that you made along the way.  Now, having the foresight of Yoda won’t always keep you out of “crap’s” way, but understanding how we make decisions can play a huge role in the decisions we make.

This, in turn, will shape the experiences we have on a daily basis.  The fact is that the decisions we make will either formulate a life of happiness or one filled with drama.

Decision making can be regarded as an outcome of mental processes (cognitive process), leading to the selection of one particular course of action among several alternatives. Every decision-making process produces a final choice.

Cognition is the scientific term for “the process of thought.”

Even if you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice…

Keep in mind that the decision is still just one piece of the creation process of which we are capable; however, it is usually the only piece missing or incomplete if and when the desired result is not realized.

You have the power to choose; choose wisely.  Slow down and take your time because when you make solid, well thought out decisions, you are turning the key in the lock that will eventually open the door.

I have been sporadic in my writing here to say the least, but I needed to find myself again, re-prioritize and figure out where I was, where I really wanted to be, and map out a plan to get there.

I don’t know about you, but life goes in cycles for me, a true ebb and flow and where I feel it most is at the foundation of my being, which obviously alters the current of my energy in every aspect of my life.  I chalk this up to my ability to allow myself the freedom of expression.  Well, what it has really been over the last decade or so is my laziness towards focusing on “the path,” which is my spiritual term for my connection to what I believe and feel is god– the life force, or whatever you want to call it– I call it consciousness.  This uncontrolled nature I have taken with my path is good in some ways, as I learn lessons that allow me to grow.  I am now more aware and certain that my thoughts affect my words, and then my actions, which carry me through to circumstances that at times are, quite frankly, painful and awful.

When you go through a period of “nothing to say”.

If by-polar is going from one extreme to the other what is it called when you occupy both ends equally at the same time?

I am… so many things and they are all opposite of each other, I wrote a post about it months ago and don’t really feel like finding it for the link. I will however share a couple that come to mind.

I am an introverted extrovert. I love this little space where I can unload my head and yet I hesitate to post the link on Facebook or Twitter, its not that I dont know why I am like that or even that I am afraid of certain people I know asking me why this or why that… its that I don’t want to be bothered with the un-understanding of why I feel the way I do.

I am all about my family yet when I get home from work I prefer to have solitude.

I love my life and want it to be completely different at the same time. I dont even feel like being totally clear about this and I want to get it out… doesn’t make sense.

Despite the above I am happy – and melancholy at the same time.
