Isn’t it funny how this time of the year brings back memories more than the other seasons? Sure there are good and bad memories that we remember and contemplate on. Sometimes the fact is, that it really doesn’t matter if they’re good or bad, because they are heart felt and meaningful. These memories tend to set the state of our emotional and mental being, which are the things that delegate what time of seasonal love we experience. But the fact still remains, good or bad they’re our memories and they are what we are made of. So if the memories are bad, face them and if the memories are good, pull them close to your chest and don’t stop holding on. Seasonal greeting to all and share it all with others.

Holding on to my memories,

I once told someone that: music is my pleasure and I can’t find nothing better, because when I’m trying to find peace of mind my music sets me free, so if you believe in me, let me play my music, music, music cause it’s my pleasure.

It is so important to find that thing in your life, which would allow you to feel the freedom of being you. We all do things to satisfy the meaning of our needs, but ask yourself do you know and do the one thing that allows you to be happy and in harmony with your personal self? You know,  that thing that makes you feel complete each and every time you turn to it. I’m sure some will say yes to that and I say, just be true to yourself, because for me it’s music and I can’t find anything better.

Find it,

As we step, slide, jump or fall into the New Year, let’s hope for a greater sense of kindness and unity. As the words say and as they stand for the creation of a new time, let’s move forward. It’s the one time of each year when we have a chance as a country to do something positive together, because everyone’s mind and desires are focused on the same thing at the same time; moving forward and growing in the New Year. I feel it is the defining goal for all of us to give our best to come together as one in the name of goodness. That is truly our destiny, to stand together as one, but still retain our individualism and open arms for love and understanding.

Uh, that would be wonderful wouldn’t it? Anyway Happy New Year, as we hope with great possibilities in mind, for the positive future of our country and every one of its citizens.

Believing and hoping,

The New Year has come and we are now living with in it. Thinking, hoping, desiring and trying to commit to the promises we made at the end of last year, to ourselves and others. Sure we’ve been here before, but we’ll probable feel this time we’ll fulfill our promises and develop the ideas we’ve come up with.

Really it’s not that we can’t or don’t want to finish what we started in our minds. But sometimes we get caught up in the moment of positive commitment and create goals within our mind and not our hearts. Everyone knows that his or her mind will and can think at the blink of an eye, bestowing sometimes delusions of grandeur. Whatever you feel in your heart is not just an idea, but also something that is truly a part of you and is there for you to embellish if truly desired.

The most extra ordinary ability we have is when we can make the mind and heart work together in harmony. This is what allows you to be complete in your everyday living, so I give to you, you. So maybe this year when you ask yourself if you can, you will be able to just do, and it will be your REALITY.

Being real,

This one’s for the ladies. How much do you enjoy finding the deals that are in the designer stores after the holidays? I went on a venture yesterday with my ladies and now I understand what the excitement is all about. The deals you can find on the expensive clothing, footwear, bags and everything else is wonderment.

Now let’s talk about the money we saved on all the things we decided to get. Well on some things I saw, I probably would’ve gotten if it weren’t for the sell price. Anytime you can pay $400.00 instead of $800.00-1,000.00, you have done a good thing. The bottom line is, I now get it, not just the savings but also all the fun in finding the piece you wanted or something you see that draws you in with its magic of presence. So ladies keep on shopping, but it would be nice if you wait for the sales.

Feeling well dressed,

Sure, ones journey in life starts at the time of conception, but the journey for and of substance in life starts when you began to understand and deal with the complicated challenges in life.

When you’re a baby and during your adolescence and teenage years, you are guided and helped with the understanding and execution aspect of life. But it isn’t until you think, live and are slapped upside the head by life, that you know you have arrived. The funny thing is when you’re young you can’t wait to get to this point and for some people once they do, they wish they could go back to an earlier time. For me I continue to open my arms to the challenges of life with an open heart, open eyes and open mind, ready to view the next big thing to come into my life. Because I know with positive thought and love in your heart, it will only improve with strength, knowledge and the available belief in the fact that if you try you can overcome whatever it is you are dealing with. It could be the meeting of someone that makes you happy and I mean this not in relationship but in an “met you today and might not ever see you again” type of experience.

But most of all I love what believing in yourself creates for you and that is, a continual supply of health everyday living, because it allows you to focus and get pass, over, through and around anything you may experience on your personal journey. Sure I’m explaining this in a simple manner, but no matter how hard anything can be, it’s just that simple when you believe in the realm of positive thinking.

On the journey,

 Waiting is one of the hardest things for me to do. I find it hard, because I’m the type of person who is ready to do whatever it is I need to do on time. I would rather be early for an appointment than be late, because lateness takes away your ability to be progressive. Waiting also creates the possibility of thoughtful misplacement of thinking. You begin to worry when there is no need, putting yourself in the mental position to make a wrong decision. You know like moving too fast on something that needs you to take your time.

So it is so important to be within the moment of what is best for you and what you’re doing.  Waiting can also be applied within a manner that is conducive to a game plan that calls for thinking slowly as you go or stop and look and take a minute. I’ve witnessed both aspects of this spectrum and I must tell you simply, waiting is hard for me.

Please be on time, because I hate waiting,

Many of times people show their thanks for something someone else has done for them, by doing something in return for the same person. That’s one way to make the point of being appreciative for the positive thing that someone has done for you.

But, I feel we must look at the underlining of what truly has transpired. One person has given a positive and good act that is true; usually the person giving is really not looking for something in return directly. What I mean by directly is, sure they’re looking for a return favor in an indirect way, like the person receiving should continue the trend of giving to the next person. Think about it.

Don’t you feel by giving a positive energy to someone would get its best result, when that person took what you gave in the same way you were giving and passed it on to the next person? In this way, the positive energy you gave will continue to exist and hopefully in a never-ending manner. The thought of something good shouldn’t be meant to be a concurrence of receiving because of, but a nature beginning of something that is meant to grow and live, because it came from your heart. I would definitely be thankful for that.

Thanks,

Deryo
