Life Is Beautiful!
“You are never alone or helpless. The force that guides the stars guides you too.”
I love fashion…shoes, bags, beautiful clothes. I love to be surrounded by beauty…nature, beautiful interiors and flowers. It is always my goal to live a beautiful life on a daily basis.
What I HAVE learned is that living a beautiful life starts on the inside. It’s about how you feel every day. There are people who have more money than they know what to do with that are miserable because they don’t understand how to feel good. We all know those people and you may even be one of them! There are also people who are so unexplainably happy and don’t have very much at all! They know the secret…
Not every day can be an over the top experience, you will not be deliriously happy every day, but you can have over the top experiences every day. It could be something as simple as having a great conversation with a friend or sitting for five minutes and rubbing your dog and knowing deep inside how blessed you are.
Taking time in the morning to have some quiet time is so important…starting your day off connecting with Stillness. Eckhart Tolle says in his book - Stillness Speaks, that if you listen, you can hear the Stillness. He says If you sit and concentrate, you can hear and feel a layer of stillness that is separate from all of the noises going on around you. I remember the first time that I tried to do this…I was totally amazed at how I could be aware of the silence yet still hear the train go by and birds chirping outside. That Stillness and silence is what we need to access every morning…connecting with our true nature.
Our minds are busy and can control us if we’re not aware of it. I really believe the secret to living a happy life is learning to control your mind. When you have a meditation and gratitude practice, you train your mind to stop and be in the silence and realize that you can access it anytime you need it. You begin to realize that there is safety in trusting the Stillness and going back to it when your mind starts making you crazy.
I’m not quite sure why I needed to write this today, but I hope it serves you in some way! Reminders are always a good thing so…remember to take a little time today to just close your eyes, stop your mind, concentrate on your breath and be still! You have access to and are part of the Force that guides the stars!
In the springtime, I love to wear a colorful coat with white jeans and accessorize with a fun bag and sandals! The coat I’m wearing is from Zara and so old, but it’s still one of my favorite things to pull out every spring. I paired it with white jeans, a white tee and added a pop of color with the yellow bag. My shoes from Cult Gaia go with absolutely everything! They are from last season, but I’m linking similar!
There are days I wake up with something on my mind and today was one of them! I would really love to know how you feel about this post? I’m mixing fashion with how to live a fulfilling life because I don’t believe that fashion matters at all if you’re not happy! Please leave a comment and let me know what you think! It would mean so much to me! Thank you so much for reading….
