Making Everything Beautiful

Who doesn't want to be happy?

Many of us are in a constant search and yearning for lasting happiness and are struggling to find it.

It seems to be elusive. Here for a little while and then it's gone again. Where is happiness to be found? And, how do you keep it from disappearing again?

In this episode, I share my own journey to find happiness and create a happy life and what I ultimately learned about happiness and where to find it.

It was quite a long journey, but perhaps my story can help you shorten your own journey and get there a little faster.

Life has a way of teaching us exactly what we need to learn just when we need to learn it. Maybe this is your time to learn the truth about happiness, and if so, I'm honored to be your guide.

It starts with us. It starts with love.

We all need a wake-up call from time to time.

I had one such experience today, on my way home from work.

In this episode, I share an incident that happened on my way home from work today and the thoughts that flooded my mind all the way home. I knew I had to get this message out ASAP.

We hold back sharing ourselves because we are afraid, or don't think we are ready, or whatever other excuse we might be letting stop us from giving our treasures to the world.

But, the idea that we have all this time is an illusion. We all have a last day on this planet.

And, for someone on my way home from work today, February 7, 2019, time is up. They left the planet today.

We simply do not have time to play small anymore.

The stakes are high. The stakes are real.

I don't want to leave this planet without having said what I needed to say. Without having given what I came to give and share.

"The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry out their dream." Les Brown

It's time to shine our light in the world. Bright and beautiful.

It starts with us. It starts with love.

Are you in a place right now, where you feel like your life has crumbled into shambles around your feet?

Maybe, a little time has passed since you were in that place, but you haven't moved forward past the pain.

Maybe its a divorce (that was me), maybe the loss of a loved one through death, maybe your career has suddenly ended and you aren't sure which direction to go with your life.

Whatever the situation, it can feel difficult to move forward. When something or someone who was a significant part of our life is now gone, a hugantic hole suddenly appears in our normal daily existence and it leaves us feeling confused and lost.

We aren't sure how to do life anymore, now that it looks so different.

We need to recalculate.

In this episode I share my own personal story of how I created something beautiful from brokenness.

It starts with us. It starts with Love.

Sometimes we can be our own worst enemy.

Many of the conversations we have with and about ourselves are critical and judgmental.

If you find yourself struggling to be patient and loving with yourself, then today's episode could be the beginning of healing the rift in your relationship with yourself.

In this episode I discuss how we can learn to love and appreciate ourselves and I give two powerful exercises that will transform yourself into your own BFF.

1. Mirror Work- from You Can Heal Your Life by Louse Hay 
2. Working With Your Inner Child

 I used these with myself to create a loving and beautiful relationship with ME! And, you can do it, too.

Making the world a more beautiful place starts with all of us working to make our inner space beautiful.

As we bring more love to the parts of us that are hurting, we experience healing. As we heal ourselves, we heal the world.

It starts with us. It starts with love.

Have you ever felt unworthy or not enough?

I think I can safely say we all have at one time or another. I've spent most of my life feeling this way about myself.

And, only in recent years have I been able to shift the way I see my value and worthiness and honor my place in this world's story. In this episode I examine the question, "How do we measure the worth of a person?"

It's sooooo easy to place our value in what others think of us or other external things, like a job or financial status. But, those things shift and change. Causing us to feel insecure in ourselves and our lives.

Can our value really come from these places? Does our value come and go with the changing conditions in our lives?

No. Our value is not found in anything outside of ourselves. Our value is inherent in who we are. We are worthy just because we exist.

We must see that who we truly are is of a spiritual nature. We are ultimately spiritual beings dwelling in our human bodies for a little while.

When we connect with that part of us that doesn't die or change, we can know our true value.

It starts with us. It starts with love.

Do you have a dream that consumes your heart and mind? 

One that excites you and it's all you can think about?

Has that dream been poking and prodding you for years to do something with it? To push through all the fearful reasons why you think you can't make it happen?

Has it finally become loud enough that you can't ignore it anymore? Is it practically shouting at you to "stop playing small and get out there already!"?

If that's you, then you're in good company because that's me, too! In fact, this podcast is the beginning of me, finally taking action to work toward my dream of creating a world filled with more love and beauty.

In this introductory episode, I share the mission of Making Everything Beautiful and how our world desperately needs us to show up in a bigger way.

I talk about love being the most powerful force that exists and how spreading more of it, is the only hope for humanity. I share the two levels that we must focus on to bring more love to the world, the inner world of our own hearts and the outer world where we can be of service to others and the planet.

Make sure you listen all the way to the end where I share a breakthrough I had while recording this episode.

My dream is that this will not be just a podcast, but a movement of people who want to live in a world with more love, kindness, compassion, and generosity in it.

That's the world I want to live in. If that the world you want to live in, too, then join with me in creating that world.

It starts with us. It starts with love.
