A New Day

I'm sorry to think that people I care about suffer through hardships. It isn't a pleasant experience to say the least.

The positive is that it doesnt last forever. It's merely a transition. Unfortunately, the time it takes depends on the individual.

I'm happy for those that begin this journey. Trust that it happens only when you are ready.

You will discover how strong you  really are and eventually emerge the beautiful spirit you are meant to be, to carry you through the next chapter on your journey.

Everyone goes through this. Having survived my own bump in the road, I can say it was hell trudging the depths of my low points.

In reflection I truly grew. My life got better! Opportunities started showing up and although its a few years later, the light just keeps getting brighter.

I am more grateful for the little joys of everyday moments and have learned to live in the present. Life is truly a gift!

I wish you an amazing New Year! Release all negative energy that hindered your life in anyway and may blessings overflow for you.

Me ke aloha pumehana,

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.
