  • You don’t need someone, you want someone

    You don’t need someone.

    You are your own person.

    You have your own thoughts and opinions.

    You have your own goals.

    You have your own life.

    Your own dreams.

    You want someone.

    Love is everywhere, it isn’t just in a partner. Love is there with your friends and with your family. Love is there when you take a fresh breath, when you feel the ocean breeze, when you watch the sunrise.

    Love is there when you watch the clouds go by, when you see the stars twinkle in the night sky, when water falls from the sky, when dew forms on a fresh blade of grass, when your heart races on an adventure into the unknown, when you take a small sip of piping hot coffee, when you soak in the sunshine.

    You don’t need someone, you want someone.

    Not just anyone.

    You want a partner to share your life with.

    Someone who recognises how special you are, how incredible you are, how beautiful you are, how strong you are, how intelligent you are and how loving you are.

    Someone who looks into your eyes and sees your magic, your heart and your soul.

    Someone who wants to grow with you, learn with you and do life with you.

    The difference between needing someone and wanting someone

    Needing someone is wanting to be in a relationship / Wanting someone is only being in a relationship if you are compatible and they are right for you.

    Needing someone is feeling as if you can’t live without them / Wanting someone is knowing you can live without them but you don’t want to.

    Needing someone means you aren’t ready for a fulfilling relationship / Wanting someone means you are ready for relationship because you choose and feel ready to do so.

    Needing someone means you need to work on loving yourself / Wanting someone is loving who you are and wanting someone who will accept you completely.

    Needing someone makes you feel desperate and clingy / Wanting someone makes you feel empowered.

    Needing someone is wanting to feeling complete / Wanting someone is someone who loves all of you (flaws and all).

    Needing someone is to say what you think they want hear / Wanting someone is speaking your truth, being a voice and not an echo.

    Needing someone is doing anything for someone / Wanting someone is letting them do some things for you.

    Needing someone makes you feel anxious / Wanting someone is knowing you are already worthy of love no matter what.

    Needing someone feels like you want to see them everyday / Wanting someone means you’d like to see them regularly and still have time for yourself

    Needing someone is giving up your power and putting someone on a pedestal / Wanting someone is finding someone who is on your level

    Needing someone feels like making excuses for poor behaviour and red flags / Wanting someone is being with someone if they treat you well and reciprocate your feelings,

    Needing someone is being completely dependent / Wanting someone is being independent and being dependent at times.

    Needing someone is being validated by them / Wanting someone is being self confident and validating yourself.

  • Your perspective will either be your prison or passport

    “Your perspective will either become your prison or your passport. It will either confine you to the way things are, or launch you into the way things are meant to be.”

    Steven Furtick

    What is this quote trying to tell us abut perspective?

    We know perspective is another point of view. The quote shows us the power of our mindset, how we decide to see what is going on.

    When we think of prisons, it evokes feelings of being trapped, deprivation of freedom, a tough environment to thrive in.

    Will you allow your perspective to make you feel as if there is no hope, no value, no purpose? As if you are trapped in your own prison?

    You will feel that you are at the mercy of what is going on. External circumstances that you cannot control.

    That it is happening to you and you are a victim.

    On the other hand, your perspective can be your passport. It will take you places.

    A passport opens up freedom, adventure, vitality!

    When we travel, we undertake personal development and self growth. We open our mind, heart and soul. We see the world in a new way. We expand our knowledge. We broaden our horizon. We thrive in the unknown and embrace ambiguity. We become more confident in ourselves. We reinvent ourselves. We experience unforgettable moments.

    Our mind becomes sharpened.

    As you can see it is a vibrant environment – full of passion and life.

    As we have pondered before, change your thoughts and you change your world.

    How will you choose to view your circumstances?

    Inspirational quotes on perspective

    “The only real prison is fear, and the only real freedom is freedom from fear.”

    Aung San Suu Kyi

    “No one outside ourselves can rule us inwardly. When we know this, we become free.”

    BUDDHA

    “I know but one freedom and that is the freedom of the mind.”

    Antoine de Saint-Exupery

    “There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception.”

    Aldous Huxley

    “Perspective is everything when you are experiencing the challenges of life.”

    Joni Eareckson Tada

  • Be a voice not an echo

    Be a voice not an echo. Let us ponder that thought.

    “It only takes one voice, at the right pitch, to start an avalanche.” 

    DIANNA HARDY

    At a young age we are conditioned to be ‘normal’ to follow as everyone else does. The typical life path. Grow up, get a job, grow a career, fall in love, have a family… we are moulded into societal norms.

    Do not be afraid to be your true self.

    Do not be afraid of being different.

    It is what makes you special.

    The origins of ‘be a voice not an echo’ could very well stem from Greek mythology. Zeus was an almighty God of the sky and thunder. He was enamoured by the nymphs on Earth, particularly one by the name of Echo. Echo loved to chat and used her gift of conversation to distract his wife Hera from the affairs he was having. When Hera caught onto this she took away what was most important to Echo, her voice.

    Don’t get caught out in the role of Echo.

    Our voice is a gift. You are a gift.

    You are so valuable.

    You are uniquely you, there is no one else in this world like you.

    Own your power.

    Voice your opinion.

    No, it is not easy, but we have to be brave.

    To have the courage to swim against the stream, to live our life with vitality, with zest, with fire.

    A soul fulfilling life.

    By voicing your opinion, how you feel and what you have to say – it inspires others to do the same.

    By voicing your opinion, you will create and open up discussion and alternative perspectives.

    By voicing your opinion, you create change.

    Be proud of who you are.

    Own it.

    Your voice matters.

    Inspirational quotes on being a voice

    “When you give yourself permission to communicate what matters to you in every situation you will have peace despite rejection or disapproval. Putting a voice to your soul helps you to let go of the negative energy of fear and regret.”

    Shannon L. Alder

    “It only takes one voice, at the right pitch, to start an avalanche.” 

    Dianna Hardy

    “The human voice is the organ of the soul”

    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

    “We all have a voice. Some a whisper, some a roar. If you can roar, roar for others. If you can only whisper, keep trying. Every roar started small.”    

    M.L. Shanahan

    ““Throughout human history, our greatest leaders and thinkers have used the power of words to transform our emotions, to enlist us in their causes, and to shape the course of destiny. Words can not only create emotions, they create actions. And from our actions flow the results of our lives.”

  • Change your thoughts and change your world

    Change your thoughts and change your world.

    Let’s think deeply on this. What does this mean?

    At times, there are so many thoughts that run through our mind.

    Our thoughts influence our attitude, our perception, our feelings, our behaviour.

    Our thoughts hold energy. A single thought can spark a whirlwind of action.

    The greatest power we have is in being conscious of thoughts. Our internal will. Will we listen to the thoughts? Will we provide a counter thought? Does this thought hold merit?

    With a conscious will, we can use our thoughts like seeds to plant in the garden that is our mind. Over time with love and care, these seeds will prosper, grow and build strong foundations. On this same wavelength, we can consciously choose not to feed thoughts that drain us, that are not helpful.

    Your power and potential begins in being aware of your thoughts. This awareness has limitless potential in elevating your life. It is the start of a beautiful life long journey. Consciousness.

    On the power of our thoughts

    Reality is a projection of your thoughts or the things you habitually think about.

    ~ Stephen Richards

    You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.

    JAMES ALLEN

    Nothing is good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

    WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

    It’s not the situation that’s causing your stress, it’s your thoughts, and you can change that right here and now. You can choose to be peaceful right here and now. Peace is a choice, and it has nothing to do with what other people do or think.

    GERALD G. JAMPOLSKY, MD

    The universe is a cobweb; minds are spiders.

    SWAMI VIVEKANANDA

    Can we control our thoughts?

    We are the masters of our mind. We control our mind.

    Yes we can be triggered. Yes there are external influences. Yes we can be swayed.

    However, no one has the power to put thoughts in our head without our permission. Our mind is the gatekeeper – do we allow this thought? Is this thought of merit? Is it true?

    One tool and resource that I hugely advocate and passionately believe in are affirmations. Affirmations can be used to influence our thoughts is our will and determination..

    They can provide a conscious focus for our power and desire to change.

    The power of our will, the power of our desire.

    Affirmations are powerful statements that we usually repeat to compel us into action or a different state of mind. 

    Equally, they are a conscious statement we make to ourselves. 

    They do indeed help us with a positive, purposeful and growth orientated mindset. 

    in her vitality

    Further information can be found here: The power of affirmations to living soul fulfilling life.

    Given the nature of affirmations – their positivity and power in repetition – they can help increase our mood and focus in our thoughts.

    For example, when I struggle with anxious thoughts, I use affirmations to reframe my thoughts for a positive mindset. I also use affirmations to be calm and accept what is happening.

    In conclusion on changing your thoughts and in turn your world

    The best you can do is think deeply on this and come to a conclusion for yourself. As for what I believe in? Yes, change your thoughts and change your world.
