Happiness?!?….YES- yes – yes – yes yes ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ›Œ๐Ÿ›Œ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽถ๐ŸŽถ๐ŸŽถ.
And a thank you to miss jelly bean purple (who you can follow at http://www.livingaloha.com) for the endless hours or epic play lists and unlimited love I can feel you sharing, that I get to draw from…every second of every day. So blessed for your love โ˜ฎ๐Ÿ’Ÿโ˜ฏ

– life is short, do what makes you happy…. Found this John Lennon quote the other day.image

This quote holds many truths that are easy to lose track of when chasing a life full of tangible things, and not simply- simple living and happiness. Be happy- and all the other “stuff” finds a way to fall into place.

Today brings Another mellow morning, super fun glassy wave surf session and smoothie slurping extravaganza… This Air B&B we get to enjoy has been delightful. The night we came in the water in the bathroom shower and sink wasn’t working๐Ÿšฟ๐Ÿšซ๐Ÿ˜ณ (as a result of sediment buildup in the nozels from a power outage a few days prior- wild) Non the less the super host Robert who runs the units left us this most thoughtful gift yesterday am!!

Host with the most. Asked for a blender, got this in return ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŒ

Any who, today’s post surf, post smoothie beach adventure was cut short by ominous clouds so we find ourselves here…

Lazy afternoon loving ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐ŸŒงโ˜๏ธ๐ŸŒฆโค๏ธ๐ŸŒงโ˜๏ธrain leaping from the sky kissing the ground with the warmest, almost steamy, intentions… and I choose to just lay back watch the world move- enjoying mellow music (Corinne Bailey Rae is the most perfect companion for an afternoon thunderstorm), beautiful company and nature. I smile- so full of loveย ๐Ÿ™‚

Life is amazing.
Sometimes I worry, which I know I know quite well is pointless, but I’m human and find my mind making noise non the less- when this happens I try to remember two things- first this quote “If a problem is fixable, if a situation is such that you can do something about it, then there is no need to worry. If it’s not fixable then there is no help in worrying. There is no need to worry what so ever” Dali Llama
And, Secondly, since clearly I can’t even begin to compare myself to the Zen of the Dali llama i just try to remember to stay in the present. This exact moment is SO special. But it will pass wether you enjoy it not, so enjoy it ๐Ÿ™‚ What’s meant to happen will- take a breathe, and be appreciative and happy for everything that you have. Right here, right now. โœจ๐Ÿ’โ›ฑ๐Ÿ—บ

Looking forward to more waves, ๐Ÿ„๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ„๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ„๐Ÿฝ๐ŸŒ…๐ŸŒ…๐ŸŒ…can’t wait for an evening sunset surf…

On a bigger scale looking forward to all the gifts- the ups, the downs, the twists and turns, the clarity and confusion, balance and growth ย as I wander down the path of life. I feel so grateful for all that I have, and the knowledge that whatever I end up is exactly where I’m supposed to be- the universe continues to Inspire and humble. Sometimes we just need to pause- pause, long enough to realize- that this moment is a miracle and everything is going to be just fine:) inhale trust, exhale doubt. Inhale love, exhale fear. Inhale you have arrived, exhale you are home…..๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐ŸŒŽ๐Ÿข

Wild and wandering…..
Salty and sunkissed…
and In love with life ๐Ÿ˜๐ŸŒบ๐ŸŒฑ

Although I found my way into wifi land, I have also found my way into people- which means all that energy I was spending with my self- introverted, is now being expressed outward. As a result I have been writing less and sharing more with the humans in my physical space. ๐Ÿ™‚

Funding happiness in balance. Balance is An absolutely necessity to Joy in life. Physically, emotionally, mentally…. Hostel life is fun:) So many different souls ย on this planet… All magically divine, trying their best to ย make sense of this human experience. It is so essential for growth to spend time outside your zone. Meet people who speak different languages- who are nothing like you- and greet them with an open mind and heart…. If a seed was afraid to break out of its shell would it ever blossom into a beautiful tree/ flower?๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒบ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒฟ.

i find the Intrinsic qualities gained, from loving and sharing, and being present I the moment are benchmarks of a life well lived…. Cars, houses, clothes the tangible thing we purchase bring only fleeting pleasure and ultimately drive u further away from eachother, from nature- and from spending time celebrating the simple beautiful pleasures of life that Mother Earth provides for free. Laughter, smiles, love, memories…. Try to gain more of these.

Sharing smiles with you beautiful beings!! unicorn and crab emoji!! Holy happiness ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿฆ€๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿฆ€๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿฆ€

“When the power of love overcome the love of power the world will know peace” -Jimi Hendrix

Leave your ego at The door…. Let’s just love eachother.. Sometimes it’s not logical. But it works- Allย love all the time:) try it โค๏ธ

I’ve also been having a great time, working with BarriGuiones – Costa Verdes tree program- planting life and playing in the dirt- it’s a beautiful program dedicated to collecting tree species, germinating seeds, planting up to 40 different types of seedlings and ultimately reforesting the costs. The people running the program are so dedicated and whole heartedly devoted to the cause it’s really fulfilling to be around such positive, grounded energy- if you find yourself in this part of the country take some to do more than surf and yoga. The magic of a tree that will stand for years to come and share shade and love is truly pricelessย ๐Ÿ™‚ http://www.costaverdes.org check it out – plant a tree ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ
