Hmmmm which one sounds better...
Tuesday Truth? or Coffee Talk Tuesday?
They both have a nice ring to them. I'm trying to figure out a post title for my Tuesday express myself day. What I mean by this is... Once a week I would like to talk about "s t u f f" and just talk! No make-up, No fake tans or false eyelashes... Just talk and be real! Seriously, what's going on with people today. I know deep down they have a heart and are super real on the inside {I hope}... But what the heck. I actually would like to see people with no make up on for 1 week. Hmmm that would actually be kind of nice! Could you do that? I definitely could! Ok back to my post title... Message me and let me know which one you like!
So last Monday as I was running my mind was starting to wondering all over the place. That's pretty standard for me. I go from what's for dinner, to design projects, to deep thoughts like who are my friends, what does family really mean, why does divorce have to suck, to i'm going to live life to the fullest and o m g I can't believe she said that to you! You name it I think it!
I have so many ideas... I want to just talk! So as I was running and starting to struggle on my long run I decided it was time to turn on my motivational podcast to motivate me not to quite. Well, this time I stumbled upon Oprah talking about motivation. Her message was short and sweet. Basically she said, I don't believe in Luck. Luck does not exist. My ears perked up... Really? She said, look I have't had an easy life... It's actually been pretty hard for me, but I'm so thankful, blessed and truly grateful for my life. I like that Oprah. As I listened on she started to talk about purpose in life. What is your purpose in life? You have to have one and if you don't you will just flounder all over the place. OMG Oprah you did it... You really did it this time! Panic set in and I started to make a list in my head what my purpose is...
1.)Get up in the morning for my kids
2.)Stay healthy for my kids
3.)Create beautiful spaces for my clients
4.)Tell the truth and be kind
B U T...
One more thought kept stepping up... I had this feeling I needed to be real and honest with people. Tell stories of my life and things I've seen or done before. What are my fears and how have a succeeded or failed at them. Hey, we've all been hit with good things and bad things. Oprah is living proof of having lived through horrible things, but she kept getting back up and pushing through. She said, she was fired at 29 from being a network reporter because she was too sensitive and would cry when people would talk about kids, accidents.. etc. So she thought her career was over. Done at 29! Plus, the funny thing is she stumbled upon this job and was just so grateful she even had a job. Well, the network said, we want you to host a talk show. Hello people God, universe, spiritual guide {what ever you believe in} was guiding her in the right direction. Amazing! So bottom line is when it's bad it's bad, but you need to believe their is a reason for that and a plan is forming! Relax and take a ride! Now look at her!
I want to talk about it all... Trips, make-up, health, style, my life as a designer, finances, divorce, being a single parent, politics, kids, restaurants... You name it! Plus, if you have a topic you want me to talk about I totally can and would love too.
Before I enlighten you with "s t u f f"... What's your purpose? Do you have one... Ok I'm not here to scare you, but what is it? I think you should make a list and then start refining it. Some say, to make a list of things you want to do and then check them off... And your purpose will come to you.
Well, I'm going to really dig in and see if I'm on the right track with my purpose. But heres a funny thing that has been happening to me... Every time I want to share something with you I start seeing 11:11, 2:22, 3:33, 4:44... What! Those are angel numbers. I definitely believe in being positive and believing the universe can hear you. I wonder if my angels are starting to guide me to my purpose. Do you believe in angels? The universe? Ahhhh so many fun things to talk about... Just get cracking on your purpose and lets talk next Tuesday.
