Being Open, No Resistance

August 5, 2025

Have you ever been so sure that what you know is the best thing for you? Only to find out that there is so much more out there that you couldn’t conceive in your mind all the possibilities available to you?

There is so much in different cultures, different mindsets and different times in history that we haven’t been exposed to.

Do you resist the exposure to marvelous knowledge, wisdom, insights and different ways to think or do you allow it to soak in and see if it is a better way of living than what you have been doing so far?

I must confess, I was very closed minded, my way was the right/best way and everyone else didn’t have it just so. Boy, was I wrong?!!

“There are many roads to Rome” is very true, about everything. There are many ways to get the job done. There are many ways to interpret anything. Different languages give different meaning to words. Some words don’t translate into English, and the beauty of it gets lost in that translation or lack there of.

My dad was a preacher and he studied his bible daily in 4 languages because he would get different things out of the same verse. I on’y speak two languages and decided to check it out, he was. right.

Is life a competition? Does that make it more stressful than it has to be? People do things differently, it works!

Resistance adds stress to whatever it is that you are doing. I have said and I have heard “there are blocks I need to get rid of.” Those blocks might be a pause for you to think differently, find another way or better yet, create another way to your destination.

Emotions generate vibration, vibration connects you to high or low frequency. It is up to you where you arrive/land/stay in life. Change it if you don’t like it.

Sometimes we get scared of big changes. You may have stayed at the job you don’t enjoy for a long time and right now is not the time to look for something else, economy is scary and this job is security. Are you putting it out there what you really want? Are you working on your dream?

Are you open for opportunities that just might show up? If you are open, you will recognize them, if not, they will pass you by and you won’t see them.

I am just suggesting that you open your mind to things that are not what you would choose/do/say. It doesn’t hurt to try/contemplate it at least once.

If we do what we’ve always done, we will get what we’ve always gotten.

Take a chance, have fun, laugh at yourself when you feel silly for trying and enjoy the outcome, whatever that may be, it was just what you needed at the time.

Drive a different way to/from work, your brain tends to go on auto pilot. Eat at a different restaurant. Read a different genre of books, go somewhere you have never been. Do different.

Be open to the adventure that life was intended to be.

See you out there, far from the comfort zone.

Letting Go of What I Can’t Control

Letting Go of What I Can’t Control

Sometimes we get to be in storms that are not of our doing. Because of that, I modified the saying a little, "not my circus, not my monkeys..." I may be in the audience at the circus, no monkeys on my lap. The picture on this post was taken in Playa del Carmen when...

I Am Back

I Am Back

I've been MIA for a hot minute. A lot has happened since I was here last. I moved to Idaho, got married, did some deep soul searching and learned a lot. I got to decide who I want to be, and start working on the new version of me. I am happier than I have ever been in...
