Now Not Next
We are often rushing to the next thing, instead of focusing on the Now Thing. When it’s time to go to the next thing, move gracefully. Until that time, Be here, gratefully… …for certain physically, but even more, mentally. Now. Love, Staci Posted via email from Love, Staci™ | Comment »

Reuse or Refuse?
ref·use (2) [ref-yoos] -noun 1 something that is discarded as worthless or useless; rubbish; trash; garbage. -adjective 2 rejected as worthless; discarded: refuse matter. Some of the thoughts, habits, words and things we routinely recycle are better suited for the trash. Not everything is fit, safe or wise to reuse.

Thin Line Between Love and Hate?
If there is a thin line between your love & your hate, it may not be love in the first place… True Love is (still) not conditional. Love, Staci Posted via email from Love, Staci™ | Comment »
Escape, Endure, Evolve
It’s not that we want relationships, jobs, or friendships to end, it’s that we want them to change, but don’t know how. Ending seems easier. It’s not, always. It starts within. Change on the inside produces change on the outside. If you’re always picking up your toys and going to another sandbox or running into the same problems with different faces, that may be...
tools of my trade
misspeanutbutterknits:
Here is my little knitting bag. I re-purposed this Trish McEvoy make-up zipper pouch, from her Planner to hold all my essential knitting tools. Scroll down to see what is inside… most links are to Amazon, but there are other websites that sell this stuff too. You can also go to your local craft store. :)

Predicaments, Pain & Patience
The notion that your pain, problem or position is somehow more potent, prevailing or pressing than another’s leads to a lack of compassion. Your predicament isn’t necessarily more prodigious or peculiar. It is, however yours and no less pervasive…it’s just different. We’re all in pain at one point or another. Practice Patience and Compassion…acknowledge the...

Hold That Thought
Hey! Hold that thought! The thought that just went through your mind. Examine it. Analyze it. Was it positive? Was it kind? Did it make you feel great? What if THAT thought was the reality you had to live for the rest of your life? It is already shaping your reality today. Hold on to the good, let the rest go. That reality is getting better and better by the minute, now. Love, Staci ...

Breathing Isn't Optional
As much as we love to help, we can’t rescue, help or take care of anyone else if we are suffering from asphyxia ourselves. Peace of mind is to the Spirit as breathing is to the body. Put on your own oxygen mask first. Breathing isn’t optional, it’s essential. Gain peace. Help from a place of health. Love, Staci Posted via email from Love, Staci™ | Comment »

Leap or Get Lobbed
Life knows when you’re ready to launch into your dream, even if you’re afraid to. Take a deep breath and make the leap, or get lobbed. Either way, you’re going to end up moving. Because it’s time and you’re ready. Time to fly… Love, Staci Posted via email from Love, Staci™ | Comment »

Empathy vs. Enabling
There’s a fine line between empathy and enabling. Empathy understands but sees you as capable. Enabling commiserates, agrees that your situation is impossible and sees you as crippled. The next time someone doesn’t feel sorry for you, doesn’t agree with you, or expects more of you, don’t accuse them of a lack of empathy, thank them for the empowerment. Take it as a...

You Are What You "Eat"

Go With The Flow
Pushing, pulling, scratching, clawing, struggling, and suffering are emotionally, physically and spiritually exhausting. Stop fighting Life. Go with the flow.

Just Because Someone Builds Box...
People build boxes all the time; boxes built of bias, fear, insecurity, ignorance, boredom and a lack of creativity. They climb right in and expect you to climb in with them. Just because someone builds a box, doesn’t mean you have to try to get or fit in it. I’m dancing happily OUTSIDE the box…want to join me? It looks awfully cramped and uncomfortable in there. Love,...
Want Change? YOU Change

What You Pronounce, You Produce
What you Pronounce, you Produce. Constantly rehearsing your problems (silently or aloud) produces more problems and pain for everyone listening. Start announcing the good in your life and watch a crop of more good things sprout up. Today. Love, Staci Posted via email from Love, Staci™ | Comment »
Don't Find Time...MAKE Time
We don’t find time, we make time. If you wait for time, or try to find time, it will never be the “right” time. If you make time, you guarantee that the time is always there… We get what we create, in all things, including time. Make some, enjoy some, live some.

Is Your Money Is Where Your Heart Is???
The people, places & possessions on which you spend money are not an indicator of the worth of these things.

Your Power Depends On What You Plug In To
Your energy & capacity for power are only as good as the Sources you plug into. People, even those we admire, think we admire, and love are limited. Plugging in to them only gets us so far and drains them, too. Try Plugging into some things that pack a little more power. Hint: Think Higher.
