Birthday Musings...

Happy Thursday! It's been 5 days since my 59th birthday...
​
And oddly enough I am pretty grateful to be here. Who would've thought I would ever have said that? Life seemed so overwhelming and difficult when I was younger. Topped with the fact that I never really got the whole "human thing"...like why are we the only animals on the planet that have to pay to live here? And why don't we treat all beings (plants, animals, rocks, and trees) with the same level of love and respect? Or any for that matter? And what's with all the ugly behavior...? I just never really got it. Still don't if I'm being honest. But I have figured out how to thrive here. My friend (Beaver Felton) calls it "KeliWorld"...and I invite you inside to take a look at my musings from over the past 59 years.

My list of 59 things I have learned:

1. We are amazing spiritual beings.
2. We all have uniquely beautiful qualities.
3. We all shine the light of Spirit in our own unique and beautiful ways.
4. If you don’t see the beauty, you're not looking through the eyes of Spirit.
5. You only get one body. Take impeccable care of it.
6. Your health depends on the way you eat, drink, think, and live.
7. “Growing up” does not mean losing your childlike wonder, awe, and curiosity.
8. The best managers help other people be successful at their jobs.
9. Never miss out on the magic of the moment by being distracted by the past or future.
10. Let your 5 senses help keep you grounded in the now.
11. BREATHE. Long, deep, relaxing breaths…
12. Love and protect all animals.
13. Have a relationship with a tree…their love is boundless.
14. Never stop learning!
15. Heaven is real, Earth is an illusion
16. If it doesn’t exist in heaven, it IS an illusion!
17. God sends us angels in all shapes and sizes. Keep an eye out for His messengers…
18. Learn to speak the love language of those around you. Practice all 5 to become fluent.
19. Work for a cause that is important to you.
20. Be vulnerable. Share your feelings with others openly and authentically. 
21. Intimacy = Into me see
22. Have lunch dates with your favorite people. 
23. Create deep connections by asking people about their hopes, dreams, and aspirations.
24. When something goes “wrong” figure out how to do it better next time.
25. The only way to fail is to quit.
26. There can be no failure if you stay committed to learning and growing.
27. PLAY! What were your favorite ways to play as a child? Let yourself enjoy that now.
28. Dance! Let the music move through your body and enjoy being at one with the groove.
29. If God made it, eat it. If man made it, limit it in your diet.
30. Limit your intake of sugar! 1 tsp of sugar renders your immune system helpless for 7 hours!
31. Have a daily Self-Care practice to align your body, emotions, and mind with Spirit.
32. Have a clear vision of what your heaven on earth looks and feels like!
33. Hesitation is a no.
34. Say yes only to things that are in alignment with your heaven.
35. Practice being loving.
36. Be grateful for your abundant health, wealth, love, and happiness.
37. Be aware: whatever you focus on grows.
38. Give what you want to receive.
39. Express God’s Love in your own unique and beautiful way.
40. Don’t go to bed with dirty dishes in the sink.
41. Instead of thinking of it as housecleaning or a chore, think of it as blessing your home.
42. Only have things in your home that you love.
43. If you don’t love it…donate, sell, or throw it away…now!
44. Celebrate! Birthdays, holidays, successes, learning from failures, or any other reason.
45. Take the time to enjoy every moment so you’ll have no regrets later.
46. Meditate for at least 15 minutes everyday. If that seems too long, do 30 minutes!
47. This is not a race to work hard and be busy. It is an opportunity to LOVE…
48. Worrying is praying for what you don’t want to happen. Focus on your heart’s desires.
49. Is how you are behaving in alignment with who you want to become? If not, shift.
50. Recognize that everything you have in your life represents your ability to let God/Love flow through you…
51. Work consciously to remove all blocks to God/Love’s presence.

54. Look for the beauty in all things.
55. Be a stand for Love.
56. Let go of physical force and connect to your Spiritual power.
57. Sit still and listen for your next best step. Wait patiently for it. And take immediate action.
58. Love others with reckless abandon.
59. Be your uniquely beautiful and magnificent Self! The world needs the light only You can bring!

Now get out there and practice being loving...the world needs You.

With love & light,
Keli
