Alisa Is Moved By…Her Most Difficult Times

I don’t want that to sound like I love to be sad or something - because I don’t - I have deep smile lines on this face of mine.  The why - because they force me to stay still, look at myself in the mirror and ask - why am I here? What did I do to contribute to this situation?  And how can I make changes in my life to not be here in this particular spot for this particular reason again?  Because lets face it - I’m pretty sure I will have difficult times that come and go over my life span.


What contributes to these “moves” in a very different way - are my life connections… whether that comes in the form of a call from a beloved friend I haven’t spoken to in a while saying “I sensed you needed me”,  a stranger being kind almost to the point of inconvenience and saying - you look sad, don’t be, a daily friend calling to tell me “I know you know this, but you will never be alone in this world - we have each other forever” or the universe giving me a sign that was meant for no other telling me - hang on - this represents love, friendship - look at your past, but do not dwell in it… live and give yourself permission to be happy - you deserve it…and with that - I move.
