DO YOU HIDE THIS ?

Depression is not a friend to anyone, and when it decides to visit us, many of us try to hide the fact from friends and family, even though they are not 100% aware that it is depression………….. Our eating habits can be changed, from having healthy eating habits and enjoying food to the full we can go to barely trying any kind of food, a total loss of appetite, and the curious thing is that it can also work in reverse we can find ourselves eating all day everyday, way beyond our usual in take of food, when can have dramatic problems with sleeping our whole sleeping routine, is thrown into havoc, we can find ourselves totally exhausted even when we have more sleep than normal……..we can lose our patience easily, we become irritable, angry and upset, depression at times does not allow us to see these patterns, it goes un-noticed……….

depression 1

Our productivity can change, we find difficulty in concentrating and thinking in a clear manner, we start to make mistakes we would normally not make…….Our social life goes all to pot, you will go to work and school as needed, but all social events will be left slowly by the wayside, losing all interest in any kind of interaction with others……our emotions seem to abandon us, and we have a hard time responding with them, ,this is far more that feeling sad, it is a numbness that invades the body and we cannot return to a happy state, we totally forget the meaning of happiness or positivity………Depression will always want you to put yourself down, you will feel totally worthless , only negative behaviour and feelings rule your life, everything will seem very black to you and totally negative in every aspect of your life.

depression 2

Depression is not something to be taken lightly, it weighs very heavy on the person suffering, it is not something you can choose to be or have, it is not a decision you make upon waking. Depression is long and drawn out and complicated to understand, if you have some one around you with depression or suspected depression, professional help is needed and a tremendous amount of patience and love and care, Depression not only affects the life of the person concerned  it also can make drastic changes in the life of those around that person. We need to be aware, and try to stop depression creeping up on you and your loved ones.

WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS ?

How about common sense, do you think this could be a good one, I can think of a few world situations right now, that a little common sense may have helped more, tolerance would be a good follow-up to that, we have no tolerance these days, people are just so full of their own agenda, and ego……if we were to tolerate each other more, we could maybe live more in peace………….Empathy would also be a good one, the need for empathy, when we know how people feel and what they are thinking, we would understand each other far better and it would be a better way to finding solutions to some of the world’s problems. Kindness is something we should always have around, where would we be without kindness, you know the saying, treat others as we would want to be treated, you know, we never know the situation of the other and what they may be going through on a personal level, if we applied this rule, just think what a wonderful place the world could be….

better world 1 

Compassion, just imagine parts of the world, fitting into other countries shoes ! until we are in that situation we will never know, but compassion is needed in all walks of life. How about curiosity, do you think other countries are curious enough to know the root of others problems, if they were to follow a problem through till the end, if they let curiosity get the better of them, would they understand on a better level…………….

better world 2

Humour, ha ha when we see the funny side of something, it can some what brighten our day, now on an International level, for a better world can you think of any world leaders, that really have a sense of humour ? With humour we could be a happier place and it could bring us closer together !

When I look around our wonderful world, I see so much time wasted , the world is full of distractions instead of concentrating on the issues at hand, we need to love the people in our life, the same as the world needs a big gigantic dose of love,just imagine how the world could be, if we were to manage a worldwide hug !

ROUTINE………………………………………

Are you a routine rat, in the nicest way of course, most of us are, and there is nothing wrong with routine as long as we don’t become bored it can give structure to our life, but we must not close ourselves of from change, change is an important part of life, some shy away from change and others seek it out all the time, with harmony and balance change is always a good thing, a change is simple forming a new habit, a new routine ……. when we look for a change in our life, you will never find that change until  we change something in our daily life, when we introduce a new habit. The secret to our success is found in our daily routine, if you believe you can change, if you can make it a habit the change becomes real.

change 1

Remember, motivation is what gets you started, habit is what keeps you going, but before you venture into change land, there are one or two things you should consider and have clear, you need to know your why, this is a very strong point and is the total purpose of your change, your why has to be a burning desire, passion want in your life, the why is what is going to keep you hungry for that change, so it cannot be unimportant to you. Choose wisely your change behaviour, can you cope with it, do you want this are you prepared to make the commitment, set a time limit on it and keep to it, make a plan on how you can follow your progress you need to know if you are going on the right track or not, do you need to let go of anything before you can make your change, and of course you need to actually do and make that change, evaluate yourself and your change and make adjustments if you feel you need to, and of course the final point would be to decide to stop or to continue, you always need to give any change/habit a period of time, it will not happen overnight for you, so be kind to yourself and your change and give it an opportunity to work for you .

change 2

Another secret to change is taking one step at a time, maybe to complete the change you need to do the whole staircase, but by taking your time and not making this change an obstacle, don’t make it hard for yourself ,  break it down into baby steps and time, dedicate 5 mins a day, that is not hard, and as time goes on you will see that you are giving it more and more time and your new habit has formed, you have made that change and you have been able to enjoy it and not dread the time or effort you needed to give it. Our lives are a work in progress, don’t rush take those tiny steps and enjoy the change unfolding in front of you.

HAVE YOU FOUND YOUR HIDDEN POWERS ?

Many of us seek our hidden power, we try to obtain it, feel it and use it but how do we know that we have reached that moment, many things will start to change in our life, when we have are secret powers on the full button, when we find our strength our perspective radically shifts and things start to happen,  part of this is losing that fear that lives within, our secrets powers are stronger than that fear, and tomorrow is not on the agenda to worry about, like before, now we take our days as they come and we know we have the strength to override whatever appears, why should we fear tomorrow ? We start to realise that we are fighters born survivors of any whirl wind or earth quake that wants to come along to stir things up for us, we can conquer this, we start to see things in a different way and we become aware of our purpose and reason for being here. 

We acquire a way to look our fear straight in the face,even when it petrify us ! we start to see reality for what it is, and we do not allow it to freeze us on the spot, we keep thinking and keep moving. You become grateful for every small detail, all the little things have the same importance, when we find our inner soul we become very aware of our self-love, which in turn shows us to appreciate kindness,you become more grateful for everything you have and truly appreciate from within. 

Inner power 1

You also start to see that you are bigger than your mind, your mind will still try to tell you horrible things about yourself and your worth etc., but you are in control now and control your emotions and feelings, you feel good about yourself and no mind can make you feel horrible about yourself. Your secret hidden powers are stronger than you can believe. Another big change will appear in you noticing the signs the universe will be sending you, the universe always works with you whether you are aware of this or not, however your opportunities are very often wasted, due to your hidden power not being fully on, when you really work with your hidden powers, you will notice every indication you are sent and your life really starts to make drastic favourable changes. The right people start to enter your life, you are attracting the right one’s, toxic elements are disappearing from your life and all this is due to your powers “like attracts like” you start to have a very elite group and circle of friends. 

inner power 2

 

 

You will believe in yourself and feel confident is everything you do, you will know and feel very secure of all your abilities, the opinion of others do not influence the way you feel anymore, you have other more important issues to give your time to, you know your worth and value, you are more than capable of defining who you are, you know you are unique in everything you do, there is no other you ! You accept yourself and what is going on around you, everyday you are more comfortable in your own skin , you are happy and because of this you are giving out higher vibrations happier and stronger, which return to you in the same way and through situations, you are on a constant change for the better in your life, you have found a wonderful inner peace you know you can trust your inner instinct, your intuition will never fail you, and you now know that everything is possible………………go for it !

KNOW YOURSELF ?

know yourself 1

Watch yourself, because when you do, you will become your own best friend, you will have a better idea of who you are and what you want from your life you will find that you do not operate under a mask of being someone else. 

They say that knowing yourself is the start of the road to you knowing where your wisdom starts, so you may be thinking, and how do we do this ? you need to start to think for yourself, on a daily basis we are placed underneath so many opinions of others and what others expect from us, because of this pressure we live under, many of us allow others to think and make decisions for us, this  can come from your friends, family and society in general , it is not meant in a bad way,but it does at times prevent us from forming on our own, in our own time and under are our opinions, decisions which are important in our life, we need to step up and take the responsibility of our own mind and way of thinking……. in many ways our success can depend a little on this, do we reach out of are comfort zone, the limits we set ourselves are actually imposed by ourselves, when you find yourself not knowing yourself, how can you know anything else. When you remember that you are totally unique, no one else is you, your voice, your appearance, your mind your story and your vision for life, is all yours, it is impossible to belong to anyone else. 

know yourself 2

Who are you ? Do you know yourself ? when you know yourself you are empowered and when you realise this and really accept yourself for who you are, you are invincible………….

Can you connect with yourself ? 

Connecting with yourself is one of the biggest challenges in your life, and it will change your life in every way. We only feel lonely, depressed and unhappy when we are not connected within, our beauty within  is very important, when you connect with yourself you will never feel lonely, depressed and unhappy again. 

Here are some fabulous reasons why you should know yourself:-

You will start to find things out about yourself that you never knew before, things you could never of imagined and most will be things that you like about yourself. 

You will even start to know where your moods, attitudes and beliefs begin……..and where other people’s stop.

You will start to open up and imagine things about the rest of the world that had never crossed your mind before, your awareness will become razor-sharp.

You will start to enjoy life more, you will start to laugh more often and even realise that you have your funny side.

And this one for me is possible the most important, you will find yourself back on track to getting what you want. 

knowing yourself 3

 

Start to find yourself, look within and discover the treasures you have within yourself, this can be a wonderful journey and it is certainly a worthy journey, step by step one day at a time.

FINAL CELEBRATION……………………….

Celebration lunch

How lucky I am, and so grateful , for a wonderful caring family……I love them all near and far, today celebrated the famous Day of the Kings in Spain, as you are probably aware from my previous year blogs, the Famous Three Kings of the Orient, arrived in Spain to deliver all the presents last night and today the celebration continues…….it is the Official Spanish Christmas Day, although each year more and more families celebrate Christmas in a big way on the same dates as most of us, 24/25 December with Father Christmas included, and a present is then kept back for the kings to deliver. However if you have misbehaved you may receive a sack of coal !!!

My youngest son invited me for lunch today in Valencia, what a great day, the weather was kind until the return journey, horrific thunder-storm started just as I hit the motorway, but all was fine, I have to admit we desperately need water, so we should be pleased, I can’t remember the last time it really rained and the winter has been very kind, a few strong winds, but not really cold, Valencia is generally warm, never really much below 15 degrees in the winter, even today with celebrating Christmas day it was still busy in the city center with plenty of people out and about, the coffee shop terraces were all busy and the buzz of the city was certainly switched on, my son is such a great chef and host, he is a man of detail (must take after his mama !) as always I was looked after in every way possible, and I am always grateful for that, my eldest son is still in the USA……Las Vegas this year, a work and fun trip combined, but they are having a lovely enjoyable time, which is the main thing.

So today I can officially say that my Christmas period is over and Monday everything will start to be back to normal again, tomorrow I will dedicate to getting my home back to normal. I only hope that all of you have had such a wonderful time as I have with friends and family over this period.
