Rainbow Days

I am living my life in full color! One of my more colorful days has to be this past Monday at the Color Vibe Run.

Wonderful friends and my older son, Kai who spontaneously agreed to go, made it the most fun day I have ever EVER had RUNNING. Yes, I admit it, I went running and I liked it.

The exploding clouds of color packets that almost made you believe that this might actually be what it's like if you ever could catch a rainbow.

Hundreds of other crazy colored people running alongside us, felt other worldly. Everyone was so friendly and happy, they would smile and cheer each other on. (There is a metaphor in here about life. I won't go inspirational quote on you here...but I know you get it.)

At the end of the 5k, the rainbow colored humans happily jumped, danced, and cheered at the rocking dance party as more cloud packets burst in the air.

Live your life in color, its so much more fun.

Smile, and send cheerfully honest love and support to everyone. It comes back to you, and at the end of this journey of our lives, you will be rewarded with your own rocking dance party!!!

Love and Aloha,

Almost Addicted

My boys have both started their adventures in outrigger canoe paddling. I'm certain I'm more excited than they are. 

The moment my older son got out of the canoe after his first practice, the grin that spread across his face, said it all. "This is awesome! My mom was right, I'm so happy she insisted I give paddling a try. She is the best mom in the whole world!" Okay, maybe he wasn't thinking all those thoughts, but a mom can dream. ;-)

I am thrilled that they actually like it. The first time I got into a canoe, it truly took me by surprise at how much fun it was. Of course, this is a team activity and good attitudes and a shared love of a wonderful sport you can do on the water together, makes a difference. Actually that is true in anything. 

Always look to the positive. It wastes your time to dwell on negative thoughts. Help others and live a life of compassion. That is the heart of any team player. 

If you wish for everyone to be better than you, and you help them achieve their best effort, your team does even better, and ultimately you benefit also. It's not about being better than anyone else, but about being the best you! 

There is no "I" in team! We all know this, yet, people create drama out of jealousy or poor thoughts. Give yourself and everyone else peace. And just help everyone! That does not mean telling anyone what to do, but showing them how. You create a giving legacy of paying it forward each time you share your knowledge and your gifts with others.

Free and Happy

I proudly live my life as I choose. Its great others notice, but when people say negative things,  its always a reflection of themselves. Things they like about themselves, don't like about themselves, or jealousy.

I will not live my life in accordance to what anyone else thinks. This is my life and only I can walk my journey.

My personal battles are my own. Some wounds heal faster than others, but scars are reminders of what you have overcome. Wear your scars proudly and as they heal, your life will continue to transform as you wish it.

Be confident in yourself and live above the drama and continue your own journey. Only you can walk in your shoes.

People will enter in and out of your life. Every relationship, is always an opportunity to learn and grow. If drama arises, your reaction is the only thing you can control. Your life will only change if you wish it. No one can stop you from being who you are. 

Regardless of what anyone thinks, choose to live with gratitude in your heart and blessings will overflow in your life. 

For those that are living in drama, wish them well, for they are learning their own life lesson. Some are harder than others. 

I believe in the best you. Wishing you an amazing life.

Love always,
