What energy did you come with?


All things have been created by the joyful will of the infinite mystery; life is an experience of making choices about how you want to arrange things in your life. You can choose to arrange things in a fearful, egoic way, or you can choose to arrange things in a loving and joyful way. When you choose love and joy, you align with the greatest and highest good and begin to express your unique creative perspective while at the same time feeling a oneness with everyone else. This will leave you with a feeling of wholeness, joy, peace and gratitude. Jackson Kiddard, author

 Food shopping is also an adventure and learning experience. Went to the Nkuma market – a vast expanse of dust and sand with people selling food and anything else even a bodah-bodah!(a motorbike used as a taxi) The food is fresh, colourful and cheap. I’ve never seen anything like it yet! I’m still getting used to when I ask a price and they hit me with 3,000 dollars! Wha? Then I remember where I am! One of the ladies asked me where I was from I said Trinidad and Tobago- blank stare! She asked me “what energy did you bring to Kampala?” Isn’t that a wonderful question? I said what do you mean? She says to me “life is always about energy, and you walk with a type wherever you go, good energy and bad energy, how much sweet potato do you want?” I think I now have sweet potatoes to feed a small village!

So what did I learn today?
I am responsible for the energy that I bring to a situation and I am also responsible for the energy that I allow into my space. Be mindful of that energy as I go through my journey! All of the negative, dark, irresponsible energy that comes around you blocks you from moving forward in your life. Life is always about energy – it’s about clearing your energy space. Unless you are willing to divorce yourself from the negativity in your life, you will not be able to go forward.

 Peace!!

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

What Does Support Look Like to You?

  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe...
