Waiting or Living?

Are you waiting on something or living your life now? Some people are so desperate for things to stay the same – to stay or be “normal”. Others are waiting for things to change. Are you waiting for the perfect job to feel fulfilled? Perhaps when the perfect person shows up in your life – then you’ll be happy? Are you in a holding pattern waiting for the world to change? We don’t know what’s around the corner and it’s certainly natural to hope and dream. In fact, dreaming is definitely encouraged! However, there are infinite things in your life at this very moment to enjoy and be grateful for! It’s simply a matter of where you put your focus. Note that simple isn’t always easy, especially when in the popular habit of being caught up in the drama of the world. Remember you get to choose which mask you put on – which filter you choose to view life through. 

While we obviously don’t need a holiday to come around to notice and be thankful for our blessings, sometimes a special day serves as a good reminder if we get in a rut and forget.


My “thankful for” list is endless regarding past, present and future! My many times in Hawaii have helped enhance my aloha and mahalo spirit. So many encounters with people and nature, including dolphins, have been beyond magical. Some of my most cherished times were with Lokelani as my gracious host. She and her

precious daughters remain forever in my heart. Lokelani’s beauty and talents are endless. To support her, while encouraging you to enhance your own health, I share that Loke (among other things) is a distributor of essential oils – doTERRA. If you aren’t already devoted to a distributor or are new to doTERRA, read what Lokelani has to say:

 “I’ve done my research and find that doTERRA has the highest quality and standards of any other company. We can guarantee the purity of our oils because of our strict and lengthy testing. CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade®. Every doTERRA oil is held to the highest possible level of purity.  We run 54 different tests before our oils are bottled, so only the purest essential oils get into your homes. 

doTERRA empowers farmers and their communities. Through industry-leading, responsible sourcing practices, doTERRA maintains the highest levels of quality, purity, and sustainability in partnerships with local growers around the globe through Co-Impact Sourcing®. The doTERRA Healing Hands Foundation®, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, offers resources and tools to sourcing communities and charitable organizations to raise self-reliance, increase access to healthcare, promote education, advance sanitation, and fight against human trafficking.

I personally love a number of doTerra’s oils and blends. For those who have challenges in being highly attractive to certain miniscule flying vampires I highly recommend TerraShield - doTerra’s repellent blend!

With holidays ahead that often involve gifting to others, I’d like to remind you of many lovingly, hand-crafted beachy Gifts From The Sea available.






















Will wrap up continuing to focus on an Attitude of Gratitude …. Some of my readers have been friends since childhood. A number have known me through business as I raised my children. Some have known me since I began my wanderings as a gypsy. Then, there are those of you who are reading my writing for the first time here. Whether we have known each other for decades or just recently connected, you all hold an important part in my life and, hence, in my heart. Words cannot express my gratitude for you joining me on this journey and the unique part each and every one of you play. Wishing you much joy, peace and delight as you continue to manifest your own magical journey unfolding before you each and every blessed moment.
