footnotes on the path of life as a thriver, i was a victim i was a survivor i chose to become a thriver! i have experienced many things in this go round on earth! both beautiful as well as the awful ugly bad shit! ALL of my experiences have assisted in making me who i am this day, ALL of my experiences helped shape me as a person. ALL of my experiences have offered me a perspective of how it can be. so each moment of each day, i get t choose; how to be how to react or no react the words to say or to be silent & still once when i was a victim in pain about past happenings.. someone said to me, that it was part of what made me me, at 1st i was offended... he continued further to say, i was a good person, with a kind & loving heart, & what had happened to me was all part of that... in that moment... my soul took me by the hand & led me to a higher perspective... & offered me a different view, & more clarity.... in that moment i traveled the path of life... that journey took me from victim to thriver!!! once when i was living in survivor mode, i was told my heart looked like a lovely shinning green crystal.... & i realized, i had hardened my heart to survive all the hurt & pain... i had blocked it off from feeling.... & in that moment i made a promise to never again harden my heart... my heart is wide open & flowing with love... this i did for myself, because i saw & felt the difference. in that moment i made the choice to release myself from just surviving only....realizing there was far more to life & living... i made the choice to be all that i was meant to be... Seeing & feeling in the unique way that is only mine.... i promised myself i would thrive in the best way i possibly could!! my life experiences are part & parcel of my being... we are all capable of rising above the hurt & pain, true some days it will be more of a challenge.. some days it will be enough to feel the pain, to feel the fear... i have learned by doing this i am able to push thru to the other side, & there is another side believe me!! when on the other side, i often looked back & thought to self... ummm, what was i so afraid of? fear holds us back. i made the choice to live differently! we all make choices each & every day, every moment... the path of life... the path i follow is mostly spiritual,mostly creative, close to nature, & one of love....this is my path, my choice. others paths are uniquely their own as well.... doing/choosing a different route may be just what your soul is requiring of you.... be still & listen... sharing in love! brightest blessings! hugs, earthdeva/molly

our memories are our own.....interestingly an event attended by several individuals, will be remembered by each in a different way.... our life experiences reflect/affect our perspective on all we do, see, feel, remember. to be estranged from someone who once was a huge part of your life can be experienced in as many different ways by just as many different folks.... i am one of those folks... i often speak of clearing our energetic fields/auras of unhealthy hooks, cords & attachments... of detaching from unhealthy relationships.... of the importance of loving & forgiving our-self first.... because if we are unable to offer our self love, acceptance & forgiveness first, we are really truly unable to offer those things/ those gifts to anyone else. is it possible to detach from an unhealthy relationship & still love from a distance.... i believe it is... i have had to do this in my life on different occasions with different individuals... it has no been with out immense heart ache & pain on my part... there has been a loss of shared experiences....the company, the companionship...... & yet the love i feel & the memories of the good times are mine, & no one can take them away from me.... i am in no way attempting to be a martyr in this.... just sharing what it is i feel on my side, in my shoes. there is always more then one side to a story.... this is a for sure!!! do/did i welcome an opportunity to heal these relationship... yes of course... absoulutely!!! i have been unsuccessful in my attempts with this particular one (that is on my heart today) to this point in time.... yet no doors have been closed on my side, no bridges burned.... i remember other relationships were i pulled away to self protect at different times in my life.... i am unsure if it is my personality make up, being an empath, having such a clear spiritual path/directive that this takes place... or perhaps it is my own unwillingness to deal with bullshit.... or that taking on anothers pain & grief, becomes to heavy to carry, or perhaps it is seeing the situation in a bigger picture kind of way, when the other is unable or unwilling......who knows.... i do know how often i tried to fix it.... did my best.... yet we can only repair ourselves, & our stuff.... i do know i would like everyone to be happy, & to know they are loved.... i remember the 1st time i realized this is exactly what creator source wanted for us as well... to be happy & to know we are loved.... that is all.... simple yet quite profound!!! in these relationships that i detached/stepped away, i realized if they thought they were happier without me in their life.... i could be big enough & i loved them enough, i would be the one to remove myself... so they could find the peace & happiness they felt i was keeping from them..... i do know relationships are where we learn/remember our biggest life lessons!!! & the parent child relationship is the biggest class room of all!!!!!..... do i have the answers.... no.... tis no my place... i do however have love, & know LOVE & i know how powerful & healing love is. & so i let all the pain go, i have no control over another.... never did, never will.... when my heart is full of the ache.... i release it to the universe... to blessed creator source.... send it out surrounded by love..... & trust it to be healed.... yes estrangement is strange ...it has as many different faces as the people who experience it.... & thru it all...... only love is real~~~ so diese Worte mit großer Liebe und alles Gute zum Geburtstag SendenWorte der Liebe sendet, um das Universum zu meinem ersten Sohn geboren <3 brightest blessings to ALL & warmest loving hugs, earthdeva/molly WOW i 1st shared this 8 years ago!! footnotes >>>> who sews??

It is past Time for our society, to shift gears big time regarding what we as individuals, choose to nourish our bodies,minds & beings with!!!! When each of us takes that seriously. When we step up to the plate so to speak. We offer that same opportunity for those around us to change. Time to honor all that goes into how,what,where when we feed & nourish ourselves!" blessings, earthdeva For those of us who make our way via our art, our craft::::> all of us who make our way via our art, our craft, our creativity... & for all of us who do their best to be self sufficient may we make our way with joy ease & grace!! ... may we always be inspired may our intentions be bold & clear!! may we thrive!!! may we be prosperous in every way! may our creativity be abundant may our products be blessed to find the right home may all we require, find us in the moment.... may we know clarity may we know goodness & joy may we know Love!!! may we be blessed beyond our wildest imaginings in 2019.... & so it is & so it is!!! hugs earthdeva/molly i did a new photo shoot yesterday & this morning found out there is an area Art Show titled Dark & Light i will be entering... kinda love how i follow my nudges!!!
