ENGAGED WITH LIFE



being ENGAGED with my LIFE
every MOMENT
every HOUR
every DAY…

getting up every morning with -
FOCUS
FORTITUDE
DETERMINATION
DEDICATION

the world desires to make things -
better
faster
cheaper
easier
forgetting about QUALITY
to the world it’s all about quantity

take a STAND
dare to live with PASSION
strive for EXCELLENCE
embrace COMMITMENT

do it RIGHT or don’t do it at all
stop rushing
slow down
despite criticism/rejection

taking a  GOOD look at my life
BREATHE in SERENITY
BREATHE out SATISFACTION…

EMBRACING life with a
POSITIVE PASSION -
BEING ENGAGED…

NAMASTE

lovingly yours,
G

  1. What a beautiful reminder – engage with life! We tend to go about our day to day activities without even thinking about the beauty all around us. Thank you so much, Georgiana, for giving us a fresh perspective!

GREED



GREED is an enemy
many don’t realize
causes an unhappiness -
a detriment to your -
PASSION
POSITIVITY
PURPOSE

GUARD against GREED
it takes away your FREEDOM
it causes covetousness
that evil desire of unhealthy wealth
taking away from others
longing to have more and more
no matter the cost

your life can be taken
at any moment
then…what good
is all your “stuff”

be a BLESSING by GIVING
in return you will be -
ABUNDANTLY BLESSED
if you have the means to GIVE
don’t be GREEDY
wanting more and more…

you will eventually lose it all
earth is a temporary journey
so ENJOY the RIDE

when you are on your deathbed
will you ask -
how much money do i have
how much “stuff” do i have
NO
you will want to have -
the COMFORT of family
the CONTENTMENT of  friends

there is nothing wrong with
having BEAUTIFUL material things
but do not allow them to
take the place of PEOPLE
be a GIVER of -
LOVE
JOY
BEAUTY
KINDNESS
may these be your legacy…

lovingly yours,
G

APPROACHING LIFE PASSIONATELY



as the MOMENTS of the DAY
turn to HOURS
am i EMBRACING these MOMENTS
with a POSITIVE PASSION

PASSION is more than a feeling
when i feel less
i risk less
PASSION is the way to approach life
i desire to do all i do
with a POSITIVE PURSUIT
and with wholehearted PASSION

GOD uses PASSION
everything HE does is done
with a DIVINE PURPOSE
HE does it with PASSION

anything half-hearted is lame
i will not be pleased
it will not produce true JOY
i always need something to  -
strive for
work toward
dream about

it is FANTASTIC to get out of my box
which is my little comfort zone
not allowing my HOPES/DREAMS
to be deeply buried
will i dare to live my life
like i mean it!!!

my life sure is a JOURNEY
and so is yours :-) !!!
ENJOY your JOURNEY
make a COMMITMENT
to EMBRACE your life
feel the POSITIVE energy
and seize your PASSION

IT’S A HALLELUJAH DAY 
LET’S ROCK ON ;-)!!!

lovingly yours,
G

MY ROADMAP



life is like a ROADMAP
so many routes
which to choose
where to go

there are MOUNTAINS to climb
VALLEYS to stroll
OCEANS to sail
DESERTS to go through
WETLANDS to navigate
PLAINS to cross

my PASSION is my FUEL
my POSITIVITY is my COMPASS
without my PASSION i’m empty
without my POSITIVITY i’m lost

GOD made my SOUL
to be FULL of PASSION
i cannot continue on an empty tank

GOD allows my SPIRIT
to be FULL of POSITIVITY
which gives me the ENTHUSIASM
to know my way

GOD equips my BODY
with a SPARK that keeps me going
a STRONG desire to reach for
something beyond myself

sometimes the route is tough
but i must check my FUEL tank
and keep my COMPASS steady
accept my terrain as it comes to me
my life is too short to waste…

i LOVE my ROADMAP
let’s CELEBRATE and give THANKS
there are BLESSINGS to be shared 

lovingly yours,
G

    When you have peace, you pass it along to me when I feel stress. When you feel off-center, you can count on me to send you the energy balance you need.

EMBRACE LIFE PASSIONATELY



EMBRACE your life with a PASSION
PASSION must have PURPOSE

what MOTIVATES you…
how do you determine your PURPOSE…
why are you here on earth
what’s your role…

look within your SOUL
your MOTIVATION = your PASSION
this determines your PURPOSE

PASSION comes from your SOUL
it stirs your MOTIVATION
it creates a PURPOSE in your life

check your MOTIVES

negatives bring discouragement -
unforgiveness
greed
worry
fear
blame
anger
guilt
envy
just to name a few

all the above are habits
a total waste of time
pulling you away from your focus

POSITIVES bring INSPIRATION -
DISCOVER
DIRECTION
DETERMINATION
DISCERNMENT
DELIGHT
DEVOTION
these inturn help you
REALIZE your full POTENTIAL!!!

join me as we…
EMBRACE our lives…
with POSITIVE PASSION :-) !!!

lovingly yours,
G

THIS JOURNEY



my SOUL yearns for CONTENTMENT
my BODY craves ADVENTURE
my SPIRIT thirsts for FREEDOM

SOUL/SPIRIT/BODY
CONTENTMENT/ADVENTURE/FREEDOM
all individual but one
traveling this journey
called LIFE…

SOUL/SPIRIT/BODY
 three DISTINCT characters
my SOUL is the REAL me
my emotions
my heart
my mind
my SPIRIT speaks through
the DEPTHS of my SOUL
my BODY is my physical frame
but yet it REPRESENTS
what my SPIRIT conveys
what my SOUL believes…

CONTENTMENT/ADVENTURE/FREEDOM
but can they co-inhabit
i believe they can
i ALWAYS choose the ROAD less traveled
ADVENTURE
i ALWAYS speak TRUTH
no matter the cost
FREEDOM
i ALWAYS seek an inner SERENITY
CONTENTMENT

EMBRACING with CONTENTMENT (SOUL)
the
 POSITIVITY of my FREEDOM (SPIRIT)
with a PASSION called ADVENTURE (BODY)

how about you…
would love to hear from you…

lovingly yours,
G

BARRIERS



 

where i live
it is extremely hot
each day the heat index is way over 100+
 

today i found myself
building barriers
now you may be saying
what does heat have to do
with building barriers…
 

today was going FAB
on my walk to the gym
i became hot
i mean really hot
remember that heat index ;-)
 

then i’m really rockin’ on the treadmill
this young guy comes in -
blares the sound system
bangs each weight machine
briskly pacing the floor
huffing and puffing
duh…are we having a
TESTOSTERONE problem here!!!
go ahead LAUGH
i wasn’t LAUGHING at the time
but looking back it is FUNNY

i began to erect barriers
to protect myself
resentment
anger
tension
 

now when i do this
these negaitive barriers
come right along with me
as i am walking home
that heat index seems to be RISING
barriers are becoming HIGHER
an hour goes by…
i say to myself
enough is enough
 

having a cool shower and drink
my barriers begin to crumble
i can choose to SUIT my tempermant
to my circumstances
yes it’s hot
yes there’s toxic TESTOSTERONE…
GOD LOVE those MEN ;-)
 

but hey that’s LIFE
LIVE it LIGHTLY
LAUGH OUT LOUDLY
and above all the rest
LINGER POSITIVELY
 

lovingly yours,
G

  1. I had to laugh as I read your post Georgiana! It’s easy to lose our perspective when we’re dealing with a heat wave. LOL And it’s also easy to build barriers – in all kinds of weather. Thanks for your heartfelt reminder to lighten up!

    You are just too funny girl!!! Thank you for always lifting me up and encouraging me.

BEING THANKFUL



being THANKFUL
does it come NATURALLY… 

do you whine or complain about -
what’s missing
what you don’t have
what others do have
the if onlys…

oh it’s sure easy to compare
our lives with someone else’s
but what good does it do
none
but it does produce -
discouragement
discontentment
destruction
damage

all the above robs you of
having a GRATEFUL HEART
now…
CLOSE your EYES
BE STILL
BREATHE
PRAY
MEDITATE

BEGIN to EMBRACE -
POSITIVITY with a deep PASSION
GRASP your FAITH
GOD has been waiting for you to
 ARISE
GIVE THANKS
PRAISE
LOVE
CELEBRATE

now the things you don’t have
don’t seem that important
compared to
the BEAUTY of
what you do have ;-) !!!

IT’S a HALLELUJAH DAY :-) !!!

lovingly yours,
G

OUR SMALL WORLD



our world is becoming
EXTREMELY small

we can be in touch via
internet
texting
phone call
cyberspace
faxing
(just to name a few)
within SECONDS…

but are we losing something…
something that is EXTREMELY
PRECIOUS
VALUABLE
ENDEARING
DESIRABLE

when was the last time
you sat with a close friend
and truly had a -
DEEP
INSPIRING
SOULFUL
IMPASSIONED
HEART to HEART
conversation about
who you really are
how they feel about themselves…

i mean really a CLOSENESS
that is rare…
a TRUE BLUE FRIEND
do we take the time
do we have the time

this world is fast-paced
totally chaotic
bringing unwanted stress

so look at the above GLOBE…
it’s a SMALL WORLD
but take the time
to EMBRACE those you LOVE
show them POSITIVE AFFECTION
convey ANGELIC PASSION…

it’s up to you
to SHINE your inner BEAUTY
to those you LOVE :-)

lovingly yours,
G

    You are so right my dear Friend. That one-on-one is truly missing in this generation. I count it a privilege to come along side someone and really “hear” what is on their heart. I learned that from YOU. I miss you. Love K
