I just added this acrylic 5x7 painting to my series of "Living Is So Big" original paintings.  I truly love flowers, their frequency is amazing and so beautiful. If we all took the time to look at all the beauty flowers have for us to enjoy we would be in place of bliss. <3

I'm not a reflection of my clothes, shoes, hair, makeup, weight... These things do not declare who I am. They do not determine who I am. I'm just occupying my body for the mean time while I'm here on earth. My soul is what truly counts! My essence of who I am. My creativity of my soul to express who I am. It's about looking beyond the physical body and going deep into the soul, heart. When I look into someone's eyes I look at their essence of who they are. Never judge anyone by their appearance they are much more then what the eye sees. ♥ ....

Are you at peace? What I'm talking about is being at peace with ourselves. How do we get there? I picture it by getting to a place where I feel at one with myself.  When I'm feeling troubled and my mind doesn't shut down, I start to paint. Somehow, no matter how I'm feeling, if I pick up a paint brush it eases my mind. It makes me feel tranquil straight down to my soul. I also enjoy the sound of the water. We have a little water fountain in the house which at times, I will turn on to feel at peace. The sound of the water trickling, it puts me in a state of mind that just soothes my mind, body and soul.

I can picture myself walking on the sand in a beach, looking up at the sky and seeing the seagulls flying by. I can feel the warm sand between my toes, while feeling the sun grazing my cheek. Now I bet you think I must be at the beach in order to feel this way? No, not at all. We can just go to this place or any other that gives us peace of mind, body and spirit just by closing our eyes and letting our mind go to these places... Let your sensory take over. ...

As I've become more awakened I've noticed things in a whole new light.  It's as if I'm looking at life through a new set of eyes.  It's amazing how life has a new meaning to me.  My compassion has risen to new heights,  as if I can feel what others are feeling.

I know that we are connected more then ever.  In order for humanity to survive this stage of awareness this has to be born in all of us.  I'm amazed how intricate we are in so many levels.  We are so powerful that just to think of everything we are capable of doing just boggles my mind.

I've noticed when I smile it makes me feel better. To know that I can change someone's day just by smiling when I look at them. When we smile there is no need to even say a word. A smile is universal.

Why do you look so sad? Life isn't so bad. With all the blessings you have, it's a shame that you don't see it. All you have to do is take off those blinders that blind you from seeing all the beauty you have inside you, and all that surround you. Why not give it a chance? If you only see what I see, you would be amazed!!! Why don't you give it a shot. What ever you're worrying about should not be your focus. Just take a look inside you for the things that inspire you. What are you grateful for? That's what you should be looking for. Life is a blessing, why not be in amazement?

What can bring happiness? 

I believe that our freedom of self worth as a human being and loving ourselves for us is what can bring us happiness. 

Our inner peace of just being one with ourselves brings us happiness. Not the things that we own, but what represents us as who we are down to our existence brings us happiness. 

I would rather have all the contentment of being me, and that in return will bring me happiness. No riches in the world can bring us happiness. Only we can bring our own happiness which starts from within us then it can pour out towards others.
