Hmmmm

For class I had to make a list of goals that are "congruent" (Congruence is the state achieved by coming together, the state of agreement) with my values. I have been blocked for 3 weeks. Yesterday I had my a"A-HA" moment. I guess I'm kinda stuck. I believe in marriage and family and I think these things are so very important, but I also believe in having respect for your spouse. Not emotionally abusing them or abandoning them. Protecting your family AT ALL COSTS. I look at my family growing up, my sibling's families, and I'm not stuck anymore. There is that line you draw, and you can't un-draw it. Why would you want to? Promises are just sugar coated lies sometimes. You can choke them down all you want, but a lie is a lie.
Off to do my homework...gotta get on those goals. <3 Melly

Say what you need to say.

So, I finally did it. I swear I tried this before, but it could have easily been a chocolate covered blonde moment. I have added music to my blog. I plan to change it as needed, but for right now it fits me, as does the first song...perfectly .

John Mayer : Say

Take all of your wasted honor
Every little past frustration
Take all your so called problems
Better put 'em in quotations

Say what you need to say (x7)
Say what you need to saaaay...

Walking like a one man army
Fighting with the shadows in your head
Living out the same old moment
Knowing you'd be better off instead
If you could only

Say what you need to say (x7)
Say what you need to saaay...


Have no fear
For giving in
Have no fear
For giving over
You better know that in the end
It's better to say too much
Then never to say what you need to say again
Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open...
Wide...

Say what you need to say (x7)
Say what you need to
Say what you need to
Say what you need to say...

Book List

Okay, so not everyone is a reader like me, but I promised Mom I'd post my book list from class. (Mom scroll all the way to the centered list towards the bottom.) Obviously if I read all of these books my brain would melt from all the rewiring I'd be doing. LOL So, I'm reading at least one "How to fix yourself book" (better known as self help?) and an enjoyable book.
Happy Reading!!

Are you centered?

I wanted to share this from class and I hope you like it. Save this picture and then edit it so it's big enough. No biggie there, and if it is then just draw one. I'm not going for perfection. Take either a needle or paperclip and tie a piece of thread to it. You want to be able to put your arm upright, elbow on the paper, and have the needle/paperclip hover right above the center. Got all that?...okay I'll wait......
I know, I know. You can't ever find a needle or a paperclip when you want them. I'll be here when you got it...
YAY, you are now greater than your children's hiding spot (or cubby, or treasure chest, or wherever they hide stuff.)
Now, hold your arm upright (and still. Don't go thrashing about trying to get this to work.) Lightly (no cutting off circulation) wrap the string around your hand so, again, the needle/paperclip will hover over the center.
Now say outloud,
"C to D" "I want you to swing from C to D"
Give yourself a few and see if it swings.
Now try,
"A to B" "Swing from A to B"
(and no you can't stop it and give it a push!! I'm watching you.)

anything yet?

"How about circles? Give me some big circles."

So, how did it go? In class my A to B was a bit sluggish, and my circles were bashful and didn't want to go very far away from the +. Your mind is an amazing creation, and it will get your body to do whatever you tell it. If you will that "A to B" then signals from you brain will make it happen, unless you aren't centered.
As I center myself, as in, bring my mind, body, and spirit back together my "A to B" gets it groove on, and my circles are getting there. I'll keep ya posted. :)

rolling my eyes BIG TIME

Unlike some of you excellent bloggers, I cannot figure out how to add music to my new blog. *rip out all of my hair* So, after an hour I'm gonna give up and will figure it out...after my hair grows back. LOL

No idea what to write, and I want off this page so this works.
