Compost For Your Growth

7026_1207520903575_2268052_n

Let yesterday’s weeds be today’s compost for the garden of your life to grow organically edible!

Kerri Elizabeth

Have you ever wondered what tomorrow will bring?

Have you ever thought about too many things?

Have you ever wanted to do something new?

Have you ever jumped in the ocean nude?

Have you ever just let every thought go, looking out to see nature’s show?

Have you ever experienced unconditional love?

Have you ever just woke up and took a trip with nothing in hand except the feeling and a look?

Have you ever just let go of the thought “I can’t” and did it before that thought took camp?

Have you ever raced someone to the top and when you thought you were even and had a shot they darted past with a smile at the top?

Have you ever been hurt so deeply by love that you felt as though breathing was an option and not part of our own true love?

Have you ever jumped into the sea and experienced a new side of being free?

Have you ever just given your last dime, and trusted it would be perfectly divine?

Have you ever trusted so much that love, disappointment, expectations and experiences all come and go and add strength to what we know?

Have you ever thought that right now is the moment love is embracing you, can you feel it and not ask how?

Ask and inspire creative ways, share it, live it, experience it along your way, give it, receive it, make a way, were all here together, nothing is in the way if the question is simply asking ,” how many more visions am I adding in today to the life legacy I am creatively building every day?”

Keep adding new visions along the way, write them, share them, and let them grow.

When weeds show up, pull them out, look at them, feel them and lay them down they make the most beautiful organic compost ever found.

Let the weeds of your life be compost for your growth, resisting them and continuing to wonder what to do, leave them more time to grow inside of you.

Pace is Your Own Embrace

Growing at your own pace is the true growth to embrace, growing at someone else’s pace is not your growth place. 

Kerri Elizabeth

Growing at my pace.

Loving and learning is a beautiful place.

Watching and listening to the human race.

There are so many differences to appreciate.

The beauty in everyone is rarely seen by anyone.

The most beautiful part of perception is no one sees the same.

It invites ideas and conversation we can take and evaluate and let them all take shape in the evolution of our pace.

The universe has a pace and part of that beautiful place, are moments and people living their own truth and grace.

Telling the sun to hurry up to rise at your pace is not going to change the sun’s perfect pace.

The most beautiful thing I have learned along my journey in life is to be me and let go of the place where I thought you wanted me to be.

Now I know without a doubt it is only me I can be and to grow I must grow from being me, not who you want me to be.

When I let go of need and allowed who was me, I saw a shift in the world where I already fit without need or try, it just was and I didn’t have to ask why.

The outside O’clock of time became clear and each moment became a place to shed fear.

It’s not about time, or a place or a person; it’s about letting go of control there has to be a reason.

When I decided to be me, and let others do the same without pushing my way, I started to grow more passion in my day.

Being who you are is the only place to grow.

Being where someone else thinks is their growth so far.

SUNSHINE on the beauty of the safety embrace, loving YOU where you are and watching you grow at your pace has taught me that loving me where I am is my own true growth place.

Feelings or a Word

wpid-20150708_202717.jpg

Words are our definition decided by each of us to put together a picture that changes with the sun, be open to the seasons of new feelings and words and know they are changing perception inside each and every one.

Kerri Elizabeth

I write these posts with my eyes closed so that I can feel my heartbeat, my mind quiet and my body’s choice of the way it will compose.

 I take a deep breath and allow whatever comes to the surface take shape in my sunshine escape.

Every feeling allowed, no resisting it, no wishing it away, just feeling it as it simply comes across the page.

For so many years, I held the feelings in, thinking I could change it, push it, protect it and never look at it.

Defining every change in my life now as the ever changing seasons, knowing it will change lead me to the appreciation of the reason.

Life is a journey, no matter what you do, its growing and changing and its part of me and you.

I realized when I resisted change I was pulled into a whirlpool exchange.

When I learned to let go I was pushed out of that type of flow.

Letting go of needing to know, letting go of wanting someone else to come or go.

Letting go of needing more and changing that to,”I am part of so much more”, lead me to a place I can give more.

Being open to receive was the next seemingly impossible thing, if I could just give everything for free, then I didn’t have a price tag that would justify me.

There is no price tag that can tell your worth that was the promise I learned from HIS birth.

I was hung up on the word money for so many years; thinking the more I had would solidify my worth.

When I was blessed with the truth of having none to my name, I realized with or without the word life was giving me exactly the perfect change.

Poor is simply a word as in love, money or worth, what has impacted me the most is that when we feel instead of define, it’s the feelings, not the words that truly are divine.

So this is one of my many lessons along my way, I hope it will help you too, you have all you need, money, love and worth,  all are the same energy YOU are the defining word.

Take away the words and you’ll feel the seasons change; there will be more of everything when you are the energy exchange.

Presently Being Present

20140214_144743

When you truly choose love nothing gets in your way, love becomes your way.

Kerri Elizabeth

Presently living and feeling love in my life.

The wind in my hair.

Music that makes me dance.

Taking a chance.

Running through the rivers on the fly.

Feeling the sand under my feet and seeing stars in the sky.

Jumping through the waves and loving the heat.

Letting waves take me to the shore.

Going back for more.

Beaches fuel the fun.

Laughter in the sun.

Smiles everywhere I go.

This moment is beautiful that I know.

 I love riding my bike in the wind and rain.

The unstoppable power of a moving train.

I can go on and on and on about the wonderful things I am appreciative and feel in my life.

When I think about all the moments that gather up my life, I also think of the people and all the good advice.

Gathering up the stories, making moments matter along the way, takes presently being present in every waking day.

Time to shut the computer down, set the phone to the side.

Be present and be intentional in all of the day.

Giving eye contact when you’re talking and listen to what you say.

Give room for others experiences they take part in your way.

We all grow together when love defines the day.

Speak love in every word, challenge yourself to listen so you can be heard.

Respond in love now, tomorrow is not yet found.

There are no guarantees of moments ahead to live, what you have NOW is the most precious time to give.

Share in the presence and make yours and their moment matter.

Love in all you do, see love is me and you.

Sunshine on love, true abundance and wealth comes from love itself.

Connection Is Complete

 wpid-20150708_202717.jpg

The connection is already complete, color it beautiful and show your best, you are connected to all the rest.

Kerri Elizabeth 

What does connection mean to you and do you feel it too?

Inner emotions, outer physical, soul-spiritual and thought intentional, do these connect for you?

We are all connected, we all breathe the same air, we live on the same earth, the ground is moving beneath us all and love covers like a waterfall.

You don’t have to accept it, you don’t have to love it, you never have to see it  and you don’t have to feel it.

When I realized the air was shared and my space was part of the world, I decided to love it all and make a difference where I stood even when I fall.

When you realize you’re connected to all that surrounds you, you realize what you do makes a difference to all around you.

There is no space between you and the earth, the sky, the wind, the rain and the sun.

The air that surrounds each of these things connects us all to everything.

There is no disconnection in reality, not in your mind, your body or your emotional state, your spiritual beliefs, your hiding place.

There all connected no matter what, it’s in the accepting it where life opens up.

You can choose what you want to know, what you want to do and where you want to go and you can choose how you honor it or how to let it show.

The choice to be connected has already been made; it’s a solid promise God gave.

Even if your spiritual journey doesn’t include God you’re in this connection without odds.

What you choose to love and choose to share, what you choose to bare and what you choose to wear is still connected to everywhere.

If I drew you a picture of the world on paper, the paint, my thoughts and visions that come alive would surely be connected from my heart to the paper and lines.

Take the time to understand you are the connection.

It doesn’t take more than a second to know that fact, but it does take the time to feel the impact.

What you do and say, feel and share, what you breathe and touch, move and accept, is a true connection to the rest of us.

Make every moment matter, your moments link to your heart, your thoughts even when they seem to fall apart, your hugs and smiles that help, your laughing and crying and loving and being, your living and giving and seeing, there all connected no matter what your feeling.

The connection is not lost or taken away, it’s you that decides to look another way, and still the connection stays.

Let the connection to life be felt, the connection is already complete, are you believing you’re disconnected to something that is perfected?

You don’t have to look for it or even work for it, it’s given for free to you and me.

I will give my best in every way to  the connection we share together in every day.

A simple ray of sunshine!

Bare The Rays

unnamed

Choose clarity in your words and in actions, yes or no is the only way to go.

 Kerri Elizabeth

When a decision is made it’s clear in thought,close the crack for fear and doubt or an opinion that can cloud it out.

Bare your rays in praise.

Center your thoughts and balance your days.

Be clear and concise and know your own advice.

Be wise and true to the feelings inside you.

Confusion is not a place to embrace.

Confusion is simply a turning place.

It’s a clear place to take a moment and make a choice, make it clear and move out of it with a loving voice.

Taking the time to breathe and be still, know that feeling and let it be revealed.

The answer may be just to be still, it may be to ride a bike up a hill, it may be to take a moment to pray or ask a friend their insight today.

When I’m not clear in thought, I can look at that and see, it’s a reminder I need to process and be true to me.

There is so much information today on everything from health to how to play.

Take the time to choose what is right for you, not just what is right for everyone looking at you.

You are the model that inspires change, and you are the model to decide your own exchange.

It takes training daily to swim a mile and it takes a lifetime of learning daily not to rush the end of any journey.

The journey is your life, it is an ever-changing seasonal delight.

Everyone needs clarity; get out of confusion it is an illusion, moving forward has to be from the place you see.

Where you see is where you are, that is the only place you can step forward to go far.

Thank you for the ability to hear, for the friends and family always near.

Thank you for the guiding light, for the reminder of what you have seen from my light.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and allowing me to share mine too.

Thank you for all the love shared that has helped me find clarity in my thoughts I have bared.

Sunshine continues to bare its rays!

Sharing Your Recipe

wishyouwouldstaycover1

The recipe for your life is the food you share with others.

Kerri Elizabeth

Forgiving

Authentic

Believing

Receiving

Accepting

Changing

Adapting

Sharing what is real to you is what is real indeed, until we share we don’t change, our growth remains.

Sharing your thoughts and dreams and authentic feelings bring depth to your journey of healing.

It’s the people we can be real with, without judgement without fault, when we can share what is real it opens up doors to creative ideas and our hearts.

Be true to you by showing the true you, be vulnerable if need be, release a moment to set the old belief free.

Judging your feelings based on being less than the best is a place you will find is never a place you can rest.

Do it if you choose that route, listen to the judgement and the harsh words you’re spilling out.

Would you say those things to someone you love?

Would you teach another to shove?

Your life is a recipe, what are you adding in the mix?

Is it raw and real, can you digest it and assimilate nutrition and appeal?

Is it good for you and will it help you grow, is it safe and have you looked at the price to know?

Have you adjusted the cost of what you’re holding and put the value on the truth it has told you?

The speed of healing for someone else’s space is not yours to judge or take its place.

When love is in place there is no judgement in that space, listening and loving is the true embrace.

Forgiving is really just for you, it’s a place you are blessed to lay down baggage to move.

Be Authentic in your ingredients.

Be giving in your place.

Receive with grace.

Accept this moment.

Change with growth.

Adapt into the ability to evolve into a consistent loving place.

The recipe is yours to create.

Would you feed that recipe to the ones you love?

A BIKE

IMG_0650

A bike appears it’s not mine, but it invites my curiosity to journey reciprocity.

This bike was made specifically for adventure and movement, it offers the opportunity of joy, freedom, exploration, healing and believing.

This bike has detoured miles with me now, receiving mountains, rivers and experiencing the heat of over 100 degrees for hours and hours.

This bike has felt my tears, it has my feet prints, my handprints, it knows my cadence.

When my legs push on those pedals I can feel my feet push so hard it radiates power through my body from the tips of my fingers to the tips of my toes.

It is the blood flow and mind flow, the mindful life glow that urges me to step harder, to breathe more, to feel the power at that moment.

All that matters at the moment is the connection between my heart and mind and the power I put into my two soles and behind.

This bike is a vehicle to the destiny I have been preparing my whole life for.

 The vehicle that quietly without expectation gifted me a path to another step in my life.

No defense or offense, it has no feeling, no agenda, no expectation just invitation to ride it all out.

There is freedom to go fast or slow, to use power or carry me when I want to coast and trust the flow.

Passion from head to toe, it takes me where I want to go, it found me when I didn’t even know.

How did a bike that is not my own give me something I have never known?

The builder of this bike intentionally built it for us to ride.

The inventor of this bike wanted more freedom inside.

This invention was built with purpose to make a dream come alive.

The owner of this bike you see purchased a gift he had no idea he would receive.

However the inventor of this bike knew it would touch more than a few.

It started with a thought.

It created an action.

It gifted a reaction.

It inspired traction.

Believe in your thought.

Create an action that will draw a reaction.

Be mindful of the attraction.

Be intentional with interaction.

I didn’t know that someone else’s bike, inspired by someone else’s dream would give me the most intentional insight into my destiny midstream.

Bask in the beauty of your intention.

Fuel it with an invention.

Let love be the extension.

SUNSHINES EVERYDAY!

Your Heart

7b08c2356e28c119947fe67c0be88b46

Dare to be consistently intentional with your heart, it’s your best part.

Kerri Elizabeth

Confidently persistent in the heart.

Growing is a consistent persistence of the daily grace you are given to live.

You get to choose the pace and the way you choose to look face to face.

Consistency in loving brings the opportunity to create love in the moments where our defense shows but love knows.

No longer does the defense hold us back now love keeps us growing with impact.

Trust in who you are.

Trust what you feel.

Shift what you think if it is not of loving appeal.

Trust a moment at a time, letting go of the old notes in your mind.

Trust in the air you breathe, letting go of anything less than what is amazing to receive.

Let it saturate every cell and build a new foundation to excel.

Take care of your heart, let everything you do be a guiding light for the love to continue in you.

Your heart is not for giving away, it’s the passion inside that delivers and shares the inspiration every day.

Who said give your heart away?

Hold your heart it’s your life.

Take care of it, it allows you to be the strength you see, giving it away will take consciousness from your way.

It is the design that keeps you moving.

It is the design that leads your thinking.

It is the design that allows the doing.

It is  the design that allows you to love to new depths.

It is what blesses you to be able to connect.

It’s yours keep it and nurture it.

It’s yours feed it and water it.

It’s yours love it and lead it.

It’s yours to share and change.

It’s yours to decide to pair it.

It’s yours to decide to dare it.

It’s yours to open or close it.

It’s yours every day so be respectful and true it is the best part of you.
