let love be your energy

So lately I have been allowing a lot of negative energy to infiltrate my being.
let me tell you, don't do it - it's terrible.
Explaining the situation won't even make a difference in the whole of this lesson to be learned as really it has only to do with me (or you) and not allowing others to have control of how you feel.
For the past few days I have allowed this to happen, I am not sure why, maybe it's where I am in my cycle, maybe it's that in my life I truly, rarely, encounter this type of behaviour. Whatever the reason, I did, and for the past few days I have felt the negative energy dragging on me. This morning it was time for a change.
My Self Cleanse:
This morning I decided that I was truly sick of the way that I have been feeling for the past few days - I decided. I wrote myself an email - explaining to myself the silly way in which I was allowing this situation to affect my life and for what? I reminded myself of the thing that I live for - love. I live and breathe love. And love does not make one feel upset, or angry or self conscious or insecure. love only loves.
It didn't take very long for my cleanse to work.
While writing my email to myself I started to feel better. I knew that I had cured myself, or rather just given myself a small reminder of who I am and what I live for.
I would tell anyone to live for love. Living for love doesn't mean having that perfect someone. Living for love is reacting to every situation like love, with love, as love. Even if the person or situation that you are dealing with doesn't understand love you will feel so much better in the long run.
I know this is similar to the love experiment, living like love for a day, but I believe in that experiment and I try my best to live it everyday.

If we all live like love we will only love.

That "Cop" is my Husband

Image
All too often I hear people complaining about the police. I hear them hating on them, cursing them and making fun of them. I know that not everyone does this but unfortunately it happens a lot. As the wife of a police officer you may think I am biased, and perhaps I am, but I also see things very differently than those not involved personally with a police officer. Everyday that my husband goes to work he chooses to put his life at risk to keep the rest of us safe. He has chosen a career that involves him missing bedtime with his children, missing important holidays and events with family and friends. He misses out on these things to keep you safe - to uphold the law that he believes so fiercely in. He chooses to strap on a bulletproof vest, every single shift, because heaven forbid, that be the shift that someone decides to attack him. He has worked so hard to be where he is, he has received extensive training and is equipped with tools to help and to protect him.  But

Sleepy Stets

 I found an old playlist the other day, "Sleepy Stets" it's called. I remember making it, it was going to be what I would play while my baby fell asleep at night and during his naps. It's a beautiful playlist, sweet country songs, Jack Johnson, Ben Harper and of course, Iz.  I couldn't help but laugh when I reminisced on the making of this playlist. Little did I know I was going to be blessed with a baby who defied all baby-sleep rules and regulations. A baby who went shot for shot with the best of them when it came to sleep. My Stetson.  Today is his first day of fulltime dayhome. It's a weird day. I've spent the last 20 months with this little person attached to me, first growing inside me for nine months and then always with me for the next eleven.  In two weeks my maternity leave (God bless Canada and our maternity leave benefits) will come to an end. I look forward to returning to my Cardel Place family, I miss just being ME and having other t

D E V O T I O N

One word as a theme for the year.  D E V O T I O N To my faith - may it continue to grow and blaze, setting my heart on fire.  To my husband - my bestfriend, my partner, may we continue to love and respect each other with understanding.  To my son - may you continue to teach me things about life, and myself, that I have been so oblivious to.  To myself - may you hold strong to who you are, take time for yourself, love yourself and run. Mi fido di te.  And so I build this year on devotion. Intentional devotion in all that I do.  Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honour one another above yourselves. -Romans 12:10 lovefrommaria
