~ The Nineteen Things I Love About Spring Countdown!! ~
Thirteen days to go until spring has sprung!!!
#13~ The sunshine gets warm again!
The sun sure blazes in the winter, but the most enjoyment you can really get is to close your eyes and turn your face up into its light. In the spring, even with snow on the ground still, the sun actually warms my face, instead of just blinding my eyes.
I find that the warmth of the sun on my face and body makes me feel somehow nourished and loved. Like a hug from the heavens.

There’s a lot of talk about what’s going to happen on our planet in 2012. And while no one can seem to agree about what’s happening, it seems that most do agree that SOMETHING is in fact happening. As energetic beings, I believe we can just feel it coming.
I happened upon this video series on Youtube this morning and was completely blown away by them. I’ve never heard the nuts and bolts of what is happening in our galaxy for 2012 explained so wonderfully. They’re fairly easy to understand for the most part and really makes the changes the world seems to be experiencing make a lot more sense.
I understand now, scientifically, why our energies are increasing and why that is peaking in 2012. It’s truly a magickal time.
Last night we attended Mike’s boss’ annual pig roast… And I got drunk and sang karaoke!
Some people really love to sing karaoke, and do it on a fairly regular basis. I am not one of those people. I did it last year at the boss’ party for the first time. Once I worked through the terror and the feeling that I was gonna throw up, it wasn’t so bad.
This year I was just as anxious. I had to keep pep talking myself into it.
“You’ve done this before. It’s no big deal. You LOVE to sing. No one booo’d you off stage. They’re drinking too and don’t care. Besides, you sound better than half of them. At least you keep tempo and KNOW the songs…”
So with that, I got up and opened with The Beatles, When I’m Sixty-Four.

I’m trying to live… as a verb. Not live as a passive bump-on-a-log like I’ve been doing for 12 years now.
I’m trying to get out there and do real things…. new things. Inside these walls, I have more experience than I really know what to do with. Out there, I have none.
I want to do more things that make me anxious and want to throw up… In a good way of course.
I want to feel that high, tingly, anxious, exhilarated, terrified like when you’re on a roller-coaster feeling! I want this feeling to be a part of my, maybe not everyday, but normal life.
I am bored because I am boring. There is so much out there and I long to find and experience it.
I want life to experience ME… authentically, as I am. I want to share ME with the rest of the world as readily as I want to soak up the experiences of all of It.

I’d intended to take guitar lessons with Michael this fall, and I still intend to do it, but I think we’ve had a minor change in plans.
Michael has just started a band class in school that will go on for six weeks. At the end of the six weeks, the kids who want to actually BE in the band will stay, and the rest will return to normal classes. I’m going to wait until the end of these six weeks to start guitar with him because I want him to learn everything they have to teach him about music.
Because I don’t want to wait that long, myself, and because I don’t want to start guitar without him because we won’t be in the same place then and won’t get the discount, I think I’m going to start taking piano lessons in the meantime.
I have always loved piano music and have wanted to learn to play piano for as long as I can remember. Yep, just typing it out makes me a little anxious and a little nauseated. LOL

I am learning that it’s that exhilarated feeling that creates.
It’s that feeling of overflowing joy beyond verbal expression that connects me right to the Universe. When I cultivate that feeling within me as I’ve been doing for a few weeks now, I feel as though I’m sitting right in God’s lap…. Like God is actually Santa and whatever I throw out there while on the lap will readily come flyin’ at me.
Doing things I love to do is good. I mean like, writing, riding my bike, walking in nature, playing with my dogs, etc…
These are all great feeling things that help me to create happiness in my life. But I’m also finding that, when I get the shot of super high exhilaration, it creates faster.
So I will. I will seek things that scare the crap out of me. I will seek things I’ve never done. I will seek things… feelings, experiences… all of it.
We’re off to the library this morning and I’m looking forward to getting some new books on my night-stand. We just ended a heatwave and we’re going headlong into the next. I’m gonna need some books to read while I’m holed up in the AC!
I have a couple great videos for you this morning. The Abraham-Hicks one made me laugh pretty hard this morning, and I always appreciate a good laugh. They say laughter is the best medicine, and boy is it ever! You are in alignment with wonderful things when you’re laughing. How could you NOT be? It feels so good!
The second one is Bashar. I’ve watched this particular video several times in the last week and it just really resonates with me right now. I absolutely ADORE his definition of abundance.
Abundance: The ability to do what you need to do, when you need to do it.
Isn’t that beautiful?
I hope you had a wonderful weekend and I hope you’re choosing to create a wonderful week to come. Be blessed, you deserve it :)

My affirmation until Sunday, 7-25-10 on the Full Moon~
As I focus upon being happy, all other joy filled things in my life expand*
