Why worry about anything?

The word don´t worry is a very common word now days......the reason why this is used by most of us, I think it is because there is a lack for Faith in God and in ourselves. If we had Faith, we probably woudn´t worry about anything......so then...what is happening to some people including me when we wake up in the middle of the night and can´t fall asleep again....????

Is it that deep inside I don´t have Faith? is it that the cold woke me up? Anyway, today I feel exhausted and all I want to do is to sleep. However I have lots of things to do and responsibilities and tasks that if aren´t done by me they won´t get done by anyone.

Someone stated that if a situation, a thought, an event, does not bring you peace, then it couldn´t be from the Spirit of God...., however, some other friend questioned me about this and explained to me that if a History Heroe made us free in Mexico through a Revolution.....was it peaceful? and my answer was NO, so then I wonder if when I feel all bombarded by my ideas and worries, future plans, uncertainty? etc, it is because PEACE IS AROUND THE CORNER? probably no either.. ha ha ha ...

Having said that I am tired, I am just rumbling and questioning my orthography as well so I must say good bye to all of you for now..... PEACE LIE WITHIN YOU. FIND PEACE IN GOD.

New year 2012 closer

well, i just know inside of me that this coming year will be great! thank you god for the experiences this year, including uncertainty, my achievements have been to become more organized, learned to be alone, by myself, enjoy my quiet time, reflectioning, reading, cooking, knitting stdying for more exams, preparing my business, taking the time to be more selective on my friendships, becoming more patient .

next plan is to live day by day

I loved this phrase!

WHEN U WERE BORN U WERE CRYING AND THE WORLD WAS REJOICING ON UR BIRTH, LIVE IN A WAY SUCH THAT WHEN U DIE LET U REJOICE AND LET THE WORLD CRY.

Great last weekend.... I met new people, found out who good friends are.... someone took the time to visit me while I was sick, and I appreciated it very much!

Thank God for all these new people surrounding my life!

God´s Signs During The Day

Today I woke up early and went to Church. (to a different one than usual), anyway, as soon as I got in, I saw people I hadn´t seen in many years. Then during the ceremony, there were many songs which were beautiful; specially the Our Father. ....later on, I saw a pregnant beautiful young ladie sitting on the same road as mine but at the oppossite end....I knew her and it was nice to see her and to talk to her at the end of the mass.

Later on I went to a reunion to find out about a product.... I met a young ladie who is from U.S.A. and she has been here only for four weeks in Leon. She is beautiful and cheerful. We exchanged info and she also teaches Conversational English....anyway the meeting was interesting...after that I went to visit my sister in a small town close from here. On the way I saw another acquaintance beside my car ...her face is gorgeous and she looked tired...so I played the honk and called her attention and chatted quickly from car to car....later on.....at my sister´s restaurant, I met a couple who started talking about their salad business and I chatted along with them from table to table, very casual (I love this part in small towns) and we ended up exchanging info and possibly doing business in the near future.

Thank you God for this day that I truly think and realize you were with me and blessed me every second of the day with your presence.

De crucero con mis hermanas!

Pues todo empezo en Guadalajara desde el jueves pasado. Dos de mis hermanas y yo nos animamos a tomar un crucero nacional.

Embarcamos en Pto. Vallarta, visitamos Manzanillo y hoy estamos en Acapulco. No hemos parado de reir de tontera y media.

Un dia la marea estuvo muy fuerte y cada dia una ha estado enferma, si no es de una cosa es de otra.

La alberca del barco con la marea es como si fueras en una alberca de olas y padrisisisisima.

Los paisajes ni se diga, hermosos. Las discos y bares practicamente solos.

Hermosa experiencia.!! Gracias Dios mio por estos dias!

Un nuevo mes.....

Gracias Dios mío por este fin de semana tan fuera de lo común. Descubrí tu presencia en viejas amistades sembradas desde kinder, y a la vez en nuevas amistades.

Descubrí que mis sueños no están tan lejos, que mis limitaciones no existen, sólo me limito a mí misma.

Descubrí que las cosas y situaciones no se pueden forzar. Que todos los caminos los vas poniendo tú. Todas las señales buenas o malas, las pones tu Señor. Soy yo la terca que quiere ver otras cosas ..... Lo que me inquieta y no me da Paz, no me puede llevar a tí Dios mío. Lo que sí me da paz y me lleva a tí es únicamente el camino a seguir. La línea recta!

Buenas noches y te pido que sigas iluminando mi camino y mis decisiones siempre me lleven a tí.

Tremendous scarry situation

My Goodness, what a week I lived. I don´t even dare to share it..... everything was very wierd but it affected me directly because somehow this happened directly to someone married to my sister.... yes I mean it.... My brother in law was kidnapped and rescued within hours......

Anyway.... million thoughts went through my brain and still are... however, I must calm down and do something about it.. yes ... maybe to become aware that the security situation in Mexico is not good at all and that I can´t live in my own bubble thinking life is just perfect.... I have to admit I am scared........ even though I have Faith that everything will be fine.... I am still scared to what the future holds.

Lord please help me to have clarity in my heart, thoughts and to do the correct thing for me.! To take decisions based on your Will. What do you ask from me ? What can I do?
