Remembering my Gratitude - Friday Reflections

Friday Reflections - Remembering my Gratitude

In my line of work and lifestyle, Fridays are a perfect time for reflection on the week. Generally, I'm finishing up my work week with no Saturday excitement or Sunday blues to distract me.

Today I work on remembering gratitude. Yes, I read self-help books, listen to podcasts, take the classes, and try meditation - more on meditation at a different time, but now is the time to practice what I learn.

Life gets busy with work and kids and all the expectations placed upon us, therefore; I find that I need to stop everything, breathe, listen to my body and mind, and be thankful. While drowning in life's ciaos, it is very easy to forget all of our blessings. Let's face it, being an accountant, even in the entertainment industry, is not a glamorous career. After a long day of being submerged in numbers and inundated with clients' constant questions and complaints, I come home to my two year old. Now as a single mom by choice with my family far away, I do this mommy thing completely on my own. It is easy to see how I could lose some of the enjoyment that surrounds having a toddler in my face and under my feet all the time, rather than enjoy that time with her.

Therefore...this week, my gratitude is for a wonderful career that allows me the freedom to raise a child on my own both financially and emotionally. I'm also grateful to my toddler for keeping me on my toes and reminding me to breathe and just have some fun. I mean, who doesn't like tickle time, playing with building blocks, and coloring with washable markets, right?

Friday Funnies

Oh, the difficulty and drama of Friday mornings. Having to wake up early when all you really want to do is lie in bed and daydream. A toddler who wants to stay home to play rather than get dressed for daycare. This Friday morning was no different. Mommy lounging a little longer in bed while my two year old was eating her breakfast and watching her morning shows. Suddenly I heard a bit of giggling. Giggling from a two year can never be good! I jumped out of bed to find my child gleefully slathering on a thick layer of hand soap across her face, in her hair, down her arms and legs. I'm already running late from my longer bout of lounging and now I need to give her a bath. Lovely. Just so you know, it takes A LOT of scrubbing to get all that soap and subsequent bubbles off. We finally get in the car and are almost to daycare when I hear the Velcro on her shoes. Great, now she is taking off her shoes and won't want to put them back on. No problem...she is almost her daycare...

Lionsgate 8/8/18

Lion's Gate is here! What exactly is this in astrological terms, you ask? Lion's Gate portal opening occurs annually during the astrological sign of Leo, i.e. the name lion.  Each year on August 8, the portal known as Lion's Gate opens. This event is a cosmic alignment between the planet Earth, the star Sirius, and the Galactic Center. To be exact, Sirius, the brightest star we can see from Earth, lines up directly with the pyramids in Giza. In ancient time, the Nile river rose in response to this event signifying abundance. This alignment allows an influx of cosmic energy flow between the physical and spiritual realms. When all three shift into alignment, a period of awakening and accelerated ascension begins. The number eight represent balance between the material and immaterial worlds. This is a time for solar plexus work to regain our balance, confidence, and energy. Release your over-stressed self! Take this to time reflect on big things such as relationships, ca...
