Oceanic Pulse

A few weeks off the radar... hello again! It sure has been an interesting few weeks. A trip to Florida promised sun, ocean, gin and tonics, and reading Chelsea Handler on the beach. It also caused a major fault line between one of my best friends and me. This situation proves difficult, and it is one that we all face one way or another. The old, "I made a mistake I am so sorry please forgive me", which is followed by a long...wait...to see if our friendship will endure past this situation. All you can really do is try to make a change in your own life, to be a better person, to learn from what happened and stand up tall even when you feel like crumpling in a corner (shaking your head at yourself). Yes, well this was me. However, time heals. Whether we heal together and come out of this as a dynamic duo or we heal separately and part ways is up to the test of time.

The ocean proved promising that as the waves crash another one will rise. Some are bigger than others. Some can pummel you to the ground. But they are all just waves.

Also, thank goodness for mothers. They are always there when you need them.

You wait
You wait for summer,
Then you wait for rain

Tip of the Week: Meditation by focusing on a candle flame. Pinpointing your awareness on creation rids the rest of the dramas in life. At least for a moment.
