Just Breathe...

Hello handsome/beautiful!!!

 I learned something this week, so I decided to share. Take a second to breathe! Yes all my posts are about exercising, and healthy recipes. However, sometimes we need to take a day, or even a FEW to forget about all of that. To simply appreciate the body and life we have and to simply indulge, indulge in life's goodness. Indulge in the beauties around you, go explore, take time for you. For the first time in my life I have caught myself not being my carefree self that I've always been born to be. I realized that I was over thinking mine and everyone else's every step, worrying about the future.  This is not good. I was lucky to catch myself and sit back and try to figure everything out. I learned a bit about myself, this last year big things have happened to me. Instead of trying to figure out who I am, I've been simply over thinking life. I have always lived with the attitude, everything happens for a reason good or bad everything happens for a reason. Sometimes we just get everything that's happening in our lives just realize it's going to be taken care of if we just leave our cares with God he will end up bringing us to victory. Whatever you may be going through it's ultimately making you stronger whether you can see it with your natural eyes or not. I may not be Buddhist, but I do believe in a lot of the things that it teaches

"When you realize how perfect everything is you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky" -Buddha

"Life is beautiful. Look within you. You are beautiful. Love all, as is. Don't hold back just love."

                                                   

Above: "The List"

 For once don't look for the meaning in everything, Just take it as is and accept it.

Indulge in your favorite food, go shopping, and enjoy yourself by doing what you love for once, do not think, just let go. This weekend my friend and made a list. On our list we simply wrote down things that we wanted to do, we did not stress about getting it all done, we just lived. We didn't just order egg whites, we ordered the whole egg, we didn't worry about the syrup on the french toast, we simply tasted and enjoyed the delicious, sweetness. We didn't drive to the farmers market, we walked and took in everything the earth had to offer, we explored. I challenge you to take a day, two days, three days or even a week just for you. Your soul needs it. 

Appreciate and love the life you have. Soak in the earths beauty, rain or shine, inhale its purity and save a little for yourself. Don't worry about what others are thinking, simply think about you. You are loved and cherished, whether you see it or not, there is no other YOU on this entire planet, so I thank you for sharing your beautiful presence with us all!

From my lovely life, to yours!

For the first time in a long time I watched the sun set, every step, God has an amazing imagination.
