The little things that makes life wonderful

I woke up today feeling refreshed and peaceful. It's been a long time since I've felt this way and to tell the truth i really makes me happy to feel at peace with myself. It's like a butterfly who had just left its cocoon. I feel alive, reborn.
 
What I'm feeling inside is already being reflected in my physical self. I have clearer smoother skin, shinier hair, and my body no longer feels numb. I used to suffer from physical ailments like my arms and and shoulders aching or my legs being numb with pain. Today I no longer suffer and feel any pain. I feel free physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
I'm taking my life one day at a time and I try to do the things I love since I now have time to do those. I may have lost my job last year but I actually think of it as a blessing. I feel as if I've been freed. Now I have more time to do photography, art and even dabble with a side business where I can have the opportunity to earn some money. So I'm not worried at all about my future. In fact I'm quite positive about it. 

One of the tings that I love to do right now is taking pictures of the things I see around me. My house is filled with plants and flowers. Gardening is my mother and late grandmother's passion so it's not surprising that our home is surrounded by a lot of trees, shrubs ad flowering plants. Birds of different kinds and sizes visit out place a lot. Today I saw a new species that I haven't seen before.
I wonder what kind of bird this is. It's not a Maya for sure. I'm thinking of making a painting of this bird. Let's see if I'll be able to do it.

Embracing 2013!


Once again another year has just ended and a new one has begun! Welcome to 2013 everyone! I'm quite joyous about new beginnings and January 1 is usually the best time to get that feeling. I am happy and I want to look forward to a more wonderful year.
 2012 was a mix of good and bad things. It was a big improvement from 2011 and all the heartache I endured during that time but I still had a lot of big ups and downs. I guess it's a big part of life to have to go through all those changes but in the end I think I changed for the better.
 
Now I'm looking forward to a better year. I've started the day right by waking up early, fixing my bedroom, praying and meditating and even finding time to do a bit early morning exercise. I was even able to walk through our garden and experience nature at its finest. It's really uplifting to be able to do those things in the morning. It's definitely better than waking up late almost at noon and already wasting half of the day. I've decided to make it my morning ritual to wake up early.

I've decided to be more in tune to my inner self this year. To be more spiritual. To let go of the emotions that are hindering me and to have more peace ad harmony in my life. I hope that today will be a perfect catalyst. A perfect start to a better and more fruitful year.
