SoulCollage(R) on a Rainy Saturday

I seem to have created two Blog addresses rather than two blogs! Ah well, I'll get the hang of Blogger soon I expect.

I had an idea for a SoulCollage card I wanted to make as I lay in bed this morning. I've spent hours trawling Google images for the right ones but I think I'm there! Now to put the images together on a card.

At the moment, my 'profile pic' is my 'Blue Angel' SoulCollage card. I love her energy.

"I am the One who makes light of any task and cheerfully tackles any project. I love my work. It's easy. I make it all Fun. I have powerful personal strength and powerful tools - of course I'll succeed - success is assured! Let's go do it!"

I made this card when I was feeling a fair bit less than 'powerful', but up she popped anyway to assist me. I've adopted this card (and her energy) as the card for my work in 2010. Whenever I am overtaken with fears, doubts and feelings around 'being good enough' I shall refer to this card!

Feeling bad is not real

I'm a real fan of Abraham Hicks.

I've been feeling a bit 'blah' these last couple of days and it occurred to me that whenever I feel emotionally yuk, it simply means that what I am thinking and believing is not true. What I am thinking does not align with what my Source Energy, my Inner Being is thinking.

And that's the only reason why I feel like c**p.

It's comforting to remember that 'feeling 'bad' is simply my Inner Being's message to me that I am off track, down the wrong road. So, presumably, the worse I feel, the more off track I am?! And do you know, that is actually quite a comforting thought!

I can then take whatever negative thought or untruth that is running through my mind, and turn it around.

So if I am feeling as though 'nobody cares about me' I can turn that around and create an affirmation declaring what I would prefer... e.g . everyone who I interact with loves me :-)

Go mad! Why just affirm that people like you when they could love you?!! Why imagine that people think you are helpful in solving a problem, when you could actually give them a tool or refer them to a link that literally transforms their life, or solves an issue they've been battling with for years?!

Think big!

I love remembering too, that the worse I feel, the more I am able to empathise and understand how others feel when they too are at their lowest ebb. More importantly, it's nice to know that I can share tools and strategies that have worked for me. My favourite tools are those that others can use on our own (because that's what I like best for myself too!) independently - and best of all, tools that are Free!

Gosh I feel so much better now! Love to you All :-)

Phew, I've done it!

At last! I've set up my blog on a dedicated blogging site! Wow - I feel surprisingly excited.

I've been writing on several 'social networks' and thoroughly enjoying it. I love communicating and sharing with people from all over the world.

I love writing! I write in my own personal journal. I write for my website. I blog on the CCOR 100 Day Challenge, on the Inspired Entrepreneur Club site and use Facebook and Twitter.

But I felt a need somehow for an online site where I can share the Real Me. This is not the me I share anywhere else. Each of the other places have a theme or a purpose. This place, here, is somewhere that I can just be me. I can write about whatever takes my fancy! What freedom.

This will be a place that I can share anything and everything that is of interest and importance to me at any time (and hopefully of at least some interest to others!). But even if no-one else reads or follows me, I'm excited about this particular blog. Oh yes! I see this blog as more of an online version of my personal hand-written journal. (Hmmm... better not get too carried away here!)

I tend to write from my heart and soul anyway, but here I think it will be more so. I feel kind of a sense of relief - and excitement! - having written that!!!!

This is a place I'm going to relax, kick off my shoes, and share the real me. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm looking forward to discovering other Bloggers/(People!) here and sharing insights, inspiration and authenticity. Hello new friends! It already feels SO good to know you :-)
