HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY~A Tribute to Moms

Happy Mother’s Day Moms! This special Mother’s Day blog is for you! If you are not a Mom, I would encourage you to read on because even if you aren’t a Mom, you have one.

The picture on this post is called ‘GENERATIONS.’ It is the 5 generations of women in my family taken at my Grandma’s 100th birthday party several years ago.

Moms are pretty amazing when you think about it. If she didn’t (or couldn’t) carry you in her body for 9 month’s to keep you safe and sound until you were born, she stepped in to raise you, and love you no matter what. Even if there were times she didn’t like you very much, she always loved you. Here’s the thing, before your Mom was your Mom she was a baby, a daughter, a little girl, a teenager, a woman. She toddled, scraped her knee, had a pimple or two and probably thought she would NEVER be like her mother. She was a person with challenges and probably went through a lot in her life. Your Mom had hopes, dreams and goals she wanted to achieve.  When you came along even if you were a part of her dream life, her life changed and she became first and foremost YOUR MOM.

Honor thy Mother for who she is!

To US she is Mom or Mum or Mommy or Ma but to her friends she is a friend, a woman, a confidant. She giggles & laughs, wonders if she’s doing the right thing  and has things she’d like to create. If your Mom is no longer in body, I’ll bet you found out a lot about your Mom the WOMAN after she passed. Mom raised you from her own set of pictures. So whether in your eyes it was the right thing or not, she was and is working on her own growth. It is her job to worry about you and protect you no matter how old you are. Do not threaten her child!

Mother’s Day is the perfect day not only to honor your Mom as  “MOM” but to honor your Mom the WOMAN. Take a moment to find out how her life was when she was a little girl…a teenager…a wife or single Mom. What dreams did she have when she was growing up? How about right now? What would your Mom like to do NOW? Your Mom is not just a Mom. She is a very special WOMAN who in many ways lives(ed) her life for YOU whether you want to admit it or not. Get to know her and see her for who she really is. You may be surprised at what you find out! 🙂

To my Grandma Sara aka Mom, GG (Great Grandma), aunt & cousin Sara : Although you are no longer with us, I love you more than words can express! In your eyes I can do no wrong. With the simplicity of a fruit salad and sleep over you showered me with a love that will never end! I love you…a bushel and a peck! A bushel and a peck I love YOU! (Grandma passed on 03/12/11. Her legacy of love is instilled and ever present in our lives. She truly lived life for her children.)

To my Mom aka Viv, Nana, sister, daughter, aunt, mother in Law, artist, chief cook & bottle washer, maker of the perfect ‘burnt chicken’ & gefilte fish 🙂 : Mom you surprise me every day! You are and continue to be an amazing woman who truly lives for her children & grandchildren. Thank you for all you have given and taught to me! I love you with all my heart and I’m honored to be your daughter!

To Moms everywhere HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! For the beautiful woman you ARE and ALL that you do for your children, may the love you give be the love you receive; Today, forever and always!~ Shine your light Debbie

Earth Day: Going Green Every Day

Officially Earth Day is on April 22nd and we are dedicated to celebrating the earth, cleaning up and raising awareness of what we can do to honor and care for our most valuable resources. As we show our appreciation for the Earth and our environment we “go green” to create an environmentally sustainable society to lessen our impact of living on this beautiful planet.

As we celebrate the earth it serves as a reminder that GOING GREEN is not only for the EARTH! You are OF and connected TO the earth. YOU are a valuable resource on this planet and you also have access to inner resources which are just as valuable.  As you honor our beautiful mother earth, do you honor yourself as a valuable resource as well?

By honoring yourself, connecting with the earth and turning your attention within you are becoming more aware of who you really are. Your most valuable resource is your energy flow and when you allow your valuable energy to flow through you (letting go of all that is not) you create tremendous growth and change for yourself. The more often you do this, the more you are growing and expanding your awareness. Did you know that when you are creating change and growth in your life, your AURA actually turns GREEN!

It’s true! Much like the trees begin to bud in the spring, you are budding with new growth; And with this new growth comes a change in the landscape! So are you GOING GREEN these days? One way to find out is to ask yourself; How have you been treating your body, spiritual and physical environments? Just as you honor the earth, you must honor your own environments.

Take a moment to check in with yourself and the space around you.  Are you eating healthy foods, caring for and giving to your body? Are you taking time in your daily life to nurture your spirit by allowing yourself to BE? Is your physical space clean and in order? If you notice things are messy and out-of-place in your physical surroundings it is a sign that your inner world looks the same. If you don’t feel good there is a state of dis-ease. If you find your attention on everything and everybody except YOU it is time to honor and care for yourself.

All the aforementioned are ‘signs’ and indicators that it’s time to do a little clean up. If you have picked up negativity or toxic energy, time to get out the hazardous materials suit and begin cleaning out any waste that may have accumulated. Let go of the garbage you’ve become responsible for carrying around. Your connection with the earth helps you cleanse. If you want to know what it feels like to connect with the earth, focus your attention on your feet and the feel the flow of energy from the earth. Go outside, hug a tree and imagine being connected just as the tree is rooted into the earth.

Once you’ve cleaned things up a bit, it’s time to shine it up! Take a deep breath, bring your attention back to you and feel your connection with the earth. Then allow the biggest, brightest most illuminating sun you can imagine to shine on you! Feel its warmth on your face! Feel the rays permeate every cell in your body! Allow yourself to bud, grow and expand! Honor & celebrate all the natural resources you hold within. YOU ARE your own personal most valuable resource……!

It is time to celebrate and honor the earth. It is time to celebrate and honor YOU! There is only one earth and we must all care for her diligently. There is only one YOU that lives on this beautiful planet we call earth and you must also care diligently for YOU!~Shine Your Light Debbie
