Find some peace in your days

Mystically brilliant day. I think the moon helped pull me through the Day Light Savings Time slump that happens to me every year when we spring forward. My body just can't move that fast. And that moon- biggest it's been in 18 years ... It Was Wow. Something, something mystically brilliant about a full moon like that one.

Best advice I could give anyone today is to never worry to much about what other people think about regarding yourself and your life. It's yourself and your life. Live it without complication of drama --

--or if you are a person who thinks that drama is necessary in your life - if you want that King or Queen hat for that type of thing -then make sure you give people in your life plenty of space. Drama is just so boring. Been There. Done That. Done with that. No More. Drama is for amateurs.

So back to point, don't be burdened down by what other people think, or even might think, because a lot of times, people don't really know what other people think. And it gets all mixed up and crazy when people start to make this private little assumption like they do think they know. Leave it behind you. Do what you gotta do -- just make sure you do the right things. And if you feel like that's a catch, well, it should be the high-road or no-road anyway if you should desire any kind of balance in your life.

Be honest and true to yourself. An age old concept. Nothing knew there. And it truly works.
Read things that will inspire you to thinking.
Help someone who looks like they might need help. When is the last time you baked a cake for an overstressed friend? Actually, when was the last time you made a friend?

Right now, for me, I am planting things I love. I am planting roses. Hearing all these things about roses, they're temperamental, hard to get along with, need a lot of care...And I thought, whoa, that sounds just like me. So, roses, it is.

There are other things I want to do. Like Someday....Someday I'll paint.

Someday.

I can still dream about it. I can feel the peace of it coming.
Peace is inside you, residing sweetly waiting to serve you everyday.
Say good morning to it, invite it out and about ...
It belongs to you no matter what you see or hear.
It belongs to you.
It yours to have forever and ever and a day ...Amen.
You have the right to let yourself be peaceful.
Be your peaceful self
tonight, tomorrow and everyday.

Best of days to you,
Miss Roxie

One through Ten on a Monday

1. I am so not a fan of day light saving time. I am always annoyed for at least 7 days. One down, 6 to go.

2. I am so tired. Why would day light saving time be responsible for that? I do not know. But it happens every year. Starting the first day. It's uncanny and mystical.

3. I forgot it was day light saving time until 9:30 Sunday morning. I was fine until then.

4. I have a headache.

5. Nobody listens to me when I have good advice to give. Everybody hears me when I say the wrong thing.

6. I am becoming indifferent to being ignored. It is like being a soothsayer or an oracle without being blind.

7. My husband says I don't have to do the dishes at night any more. I knew that. But somehow, him saying it made it better.

8. What is the difference between defining the moment or letting the moment define you?

9. I have so many things I want to do. But I guess that's alright because if I had done them all, then I'd be done.

10. On Tuesdays I will not be broken.

What is a complete sentence?

Complete sentences have been eluding me. Just short choppy thoughts:

1. If a person does you wrong, be sure to not label that action as one that will come from everyone you meet.

2. Move away from drama, unless you are on an actual stage and getting paid.

3. Move forward in your life. Unless you have reached the mountain top and the view is great, and the soul is filled with God's love, and you are now one with the universe -- keep moving forward. And, really, don't look back.

4. To play with a two year old, you will need a trainer, a good pair of shoes, and appropriate clothing. Don't go out there unprepared. The two year old cannot be your trainer because they have no mercy and a mind that way, way ahead of you.

5. I know what happens when you don't put the coffee carafe on the plate. But you do fill the filter, add the water, turn it on and go check the plants. Some days it is too early for early.

6. Gardening is a commitment. It serves a very good purpose. It's a lovely exercise in the cycle of life.

7. Be the better version of yourself on your best day. And all will be well with you and yours.
