This is Your Moment

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Don’t wait for the perfect moment, take the moment and make it perfect!

Zoey Sayward

This moment is here.

This moment is real.

This moment is yours.

This moment is now.

This moment will pass.

This moment will change.

This moment is big.

This moment is clear.

Every moment matters, they are a connection of time.

Every moment gives you choice, take it and rejoice.

Every moment, you have a voice, let it carry with rejoice.

Take the moment and make it big, you only get one chance to live.

Every moment links to another, create them on a canvas of forever!

Sunshine on your shoulders today, take it as you may and enjoy it as if it was your last day!

Remember Who You Are

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

“Never forget who you are.”

Lion King

Remember when you start your day that smiling is okay.

When the sun rises and shines on you, don’t forget you asked it to.

When a child smiles and laughs near you, don’t forget to laugh and smile too.

When a stranger looks at you, don’t forget you’re a stranger too, smile and say, “Have a good day”.

When you are blessed to eat a meal, don’t forget how good that feels.

When you make a new friend make sure you don’t forget you’re on the other end.

In the cracks and crevices of the day, don’t forget to play.

When your heart is telling you to do something more, remember it’s an open door.

When you promised to let it go, remember the person you have to face daily knows.

When you’re given a chance to rest, remember you asked for that when stressed.

Remember the little things around, and life will be profound.

Remember who you are today, yesterday is gone, tomorrow has not come, today is a chance to overcome.

Shining sunshine on who you are, a reminder you have come so far.

Your House

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

It is not uncommon for people to wait their whole life to start living.

 Eckhart Tolle

 BE THE UNCOMMON

 Kerri-Elizabeth

 Searching and searching for the dream place.

 Persistence and consistence showed the way to the space.

 There was dust and dirt and floors to remove, insight was about to be the newly improved.

 The walls had layers of stories inside, took days and days to finally decide.

 It had what it needed now, the space inside, for creation and feeling to coincide.

 No water, no shower, no kitchen to cook, it was being remodeled with a new look.

 The story is that this awesome place became a frame and a security place.

 Learning to live completely without never brought any doubt.

 Hope never left, the decision to fail was never a possibility to prevail.

 What happens later outside that space was a lesson that can never be replaced.

 The house was the body it learned to live small; the mind was the biggest storm of it all.

 The soul never let the dreams go, carrying on with a clear glow.

 Has a stormed torn up the inside of your space, but the memory has become what you truly embrace?

 Inside the house are guilt and shame and a constant reminder of the pain.

 Confusion of the storm set in and you decided to stay within.

 Standing your ground in a torn up place, life has become a smaller place.

 Rebuild on new ground, get out of that space, you’re allowed to live life with true grace.

 Let go of the house you were raised in for years and take the sentimental tears.

 Let the broken pieces get swept away, it’s time to live another day.

 Have you become best friends with fear, and never realized it’s really you drawing it near?

 Build your new house where nothing is fear, conquer the possibilities so near.

 I look forward to seeing your new place; I know it show the glow on your face.

 Here is my sunshine for today, shine on for a brand new day!

Pen and Paper

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Pause, breathe, cry if you must, BUT KEEP GOING!

This morning I had my blog all done, excited and ready, it was full of character and fun.

I wrote it all out in Microsoft Word, I saved it and saved it without concern.

I went to copy and paste it to here and the only thing posted brought out a tear.

I called my best friend for his help, he searched my computer for what was dealt.

He signed on to my computer from his house, with a simple click of his mouse.

Don’t ask me how he does that, I leave it to him.

Thank goodness for friends that have learned what I don’t even want to begin.

As he was searching the reality became true, the file was corrupted and written in blue.

I decided I was experiencing something to say that maybe would change someone else’s day.

 There will be challenges and changes, in the way you handle it will be the exchanges.

Turn the problem into a solution, don’t let it be your absolution.

Here is your sunshine for today, use pen and paper, ok!

Sunshine she’s here, you can take a break!

Imagine

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.

                                                                                          Dr. Seuss

Imagine the smile on your face, until it’s securely in place.

Imagine your heart beating stable and calm; allow it out of the state of alarm.

Imagine the sun in a deep blue sky with visions of the distance you could fly.

Imagine your health at its very best, every thought is to invest.

Imagine and dance with the freedom to see exactly what you want to be.

Imagine the life you want to live, look back and forgive.

Imagine your finances abundantly grown, bills are paid and you’re in a debt free zone.

Imagine your life lived your way and giving was in every day.

Do you wake up and feel alive or are you still living in compromise?

Imagine what your best day would hold, write it and plan it and be bold.

See it, believe it, and take steps to achieve it.

Sounds easy you say…. but……..in my day……….I can’t……later…..after……I’m scared….. My life is different….I’m stuck….when he does…when she does….I have to…..I need to……it’s not possible….. what I’m doing is good enough….she said……he said……I’m broke……My foot hurts…my head hurts….I’m sad…I’m not able…..I can’t see that……when I grew up…..I did this…I did that…. I feel bad… I feel guilty…. I don’t deserve…I can’t move on…..my belief is gone……he hurt me…..she hurt me….I lost this…..I lost that….my heart is broken….

What if all it took was to imagine a change and direct your thoughts to re-arrange, the moments and past that hold you back and you set them on a different track.

What if that track went a different route, take the time and try it out!

This is what it might be about…..yes….it’s a new day….I can… I will….now….I did it….my life is now I want to live it….I’m free…..possibilities are within me…I want more….. I deserve more…. I am more……I can see it… I believe it….that was before….. this is now…I forgave it….I repaid it….I feel awesome….the hurt is gone….I have room for more….I have abundance right now….I can give…I can receive…I’m brave….I’m not afraid….I can love…. I can be loved….my heart is healthy….. I allow healing ….I am healed….I have energy….

Shining sunshine on your thoughts today!

Give and Take

Nothing will work unless you do.

                                                                                      Maya Angelou

Emotionally overwhelmed with the moment in time, anxiety and air didn’t align.

As she looked across the room her daughter was there, a frantic connection they couldn’t bare.

They agreed to sit down to tackle some thoughts, then in a flash the love felt lost.

They sat for hours searching for more,

and agreed together not to keep score.

There were tears in both their eyes,

it was time to sit down and compromise.

The struggle for love was so intense,  hearts were clearly in only defense.

“What is my favorite color”, she asks?

 Without time to respond, she says,” you have never even asked”.

We are given moments in life to achieve, and often they are lost because we don’t believe.

It was only the two of them healing their pain and what happened next was a complete life change.

 Six hours later we had made a vow, to listen to love and to be in the now.

The breath that was given was taken away, there was no more oxygen or heartbeat to stay.

One never got up from that chair , the others experience seemed too much to bare.

She saw her mother die on the floor,

 a moment of panic brought her to want more.

She watched the pain take her mother away, now tables are turned and she’s gone today.

She made many choices after that day,

that has taken her so very far away.

Two different people in the same story,

but completely different versions, only one saw glory.

One saw light and no pain, the other felt tears lead by her fears.

One saw  life in a movie form, the other in shock and suddenly torn.

One took a journey to another place,

the other watched her mother’s still face.

The rest is a journey of life and love ,chapters and chapters sent from above.

There are seasons and trials and heartaches and tears,

there are smiles and hugs and kisses for years.

The seasons will pass, they go all too fast.

Let go of the winter, the storms and rain,

or you’ll miss the sunshine after the pain.

Friends are Forever

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

   “In the words and hand you lend, a lifetime of heart extend.”

-Kerri Elizabeth

In the glow of your smile and the sparkle in your eyes,

in the voice of approval that helps you decide.

In the arm that extends and the

heart that will share, I’m so grateful for the time your there.

There are times your voice reaches out with despair,

to me this means it’s my time to care.

-Kerri Elizabeth

A friend is a person who never loses sight of who you are in fight or flight.

A friend gives you their opinion without their decision.

A friend is selfless, they don’t blame or put shame.

A friend is a believer and a cheerleader of heart.

A friend can see your inner voice and show you clearly what sets you apart.

A friend sees in you what hasn’t been done, and through their eyes hope has begun.

A friend gives you a hug that is not defensive or far.

 A friend is purposeful and their intention is merciful.

There is no time lapse in friendship, no distance too far, a friend is forever, our personal rock star.

Be to yourself the friendship you aspire,

look in the mirror and believe in what you desire.

That what you see is your friend forever so make a promise you’ll always get through together.

Here is some sunshine  to the heart and your mind ,be patient and loving

and don’t leave you behind.

-Sunshine
