Remember love in all things that you do. Deep down behind every action you take is the desire to feel happy, inspired and whole. Fear and the feeling of separation give us the false belief that lashing out, giving in to addiction or one upping someone else is the way to "get ahead" or "get back at them". No. Hold a space in your heart for everything that isn't as you would like it to be, let go of needing the approval or presence of anyone or anything to define you. Take your power back by knowing you are One with the Whole and that as you let go of unhealthy situations you will be welcoming in new happiness and prosperity. Take the high road, hold your tongue and focus on what YOU can do. The days of outsourcing your power are over. You are in control.

Post Grad

It can get a little bit overwhelming. But life awaits! As long as 'our people' are there for us, what can possibly go wrong? At least that's what I tell myself. God finds us a way through it all.

Goodbye Izz...

So a few nights ago, I was watching Grey's Anatomy. I love the show to pieces, but it has been a while since I found myself loving rather than just merely liking the show but this one seems to give its viewers lots of things to think about. 

1. If you had a gun pointed to your head, which would you choose: the thing you love or the person you love?

We certainly hope this isn't a choice we have to make during the course of our lifetime, but more often than not do we find ourselves constantly in the midst of choosing either or. Wouldn't you agree? Izzie being Izzie obviously chose love when everyone else chose the thing they love and live for. The thing you love, according to her, isn't the one you come home too by the end of the day.

2. How do you know when you're doing the right thing?

Sometimes it's hard to figure. One way or another, the inevitable consequences of any choice is both joy and pain, depending on which party you are in. Like the old saying goes, we can't always please everybody. Owen's take? It's the right thing if it benefits the most people. But what if you're not part of 'most people'?

3.  If you love someone who left you once before, do you take them back in your life?

That's a tough one! We never really have any assurances that they won't ever do it again. If they can stomach to do it in the past for all the wrong reasons, then surely it won't be so hard to do it all over again. At one point do you decide to forgive and forget, or hold yourself back? We all deserve someone who will stay, as Alex puts it. We aren't supposed to be temporary fixes. And I truly agree. But perhaps that is easier said than done right? 

Oh well. 

I wonder if Izzie will come back after her maternity leave. The show just wouldn't be the same now that they are slowly replacing the original cast.
