Leap For Life 2011

 

Join us this September as we take to the skies for the 2011 Global Leap for Life to raise money for two important cancer charities. We’re leaping this year for Alex’s Lemonade Stand – the national not-for-profit founded by four year old cancer patient Alex Scott! ~Greatness is not found in possessions power position or prestige. It is discovered in goodness humility service & character ✌ღ☺

My personal battle with cancer began in 2004, with a second round in 2005. Being cleared in 2006, as of my last check-up I remain cancer free. Throughout my life many people have fought this battle. Some of the people have lost their battles and some continue to fight. That is why when I saw Leap for Life I knew I had to participate. What could be a better way to bring awareness to such personal battle than to jump out of a perfectly good airplane?! 

Most likely u know someone who has been a victim of cancer. If not, you probably will in your lifetime. Together, we can make a difference. We always want to know what "we can do" do to help after the fact. Let's do something proactive. Won't you please help me reach my goal ♥

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

QuotationsThose are a success who have lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who have gained the respect of intelligent people and the love of children, who have filled their niche and accomplished their task, who leave the world a better place than they found it, whether by a perfect poem or a rescued soul; who never lacked appreciation of the earth's beauty or failed to express it; who looked for the best in others and gave the best they had.

HUGS LOVE & HAPPY WEDNESDAY ✌ღ☺

The universal Law of Attraction states that we draw to us those people, events, & circumstances that match our inner state of being. In other words, we attract experiences that are consistent with our beliefs. If we believe that there is plenty of love in the world and we are worthy of giving and receiving that love, we will attract a different quality of relationships than someone who believes in scarcity or feels unworthy of happiness. If we believe the world is a loving and friendly place, then most of the time that will be our experience. If we believe the world is a chaotic, stressful, and fearful place, then eventually that will become our reality!! Life will pay whatever you ask of it, don't sell yourself short!!!

Strong Is The New Skinny!

5 miles a day will defiantly help anyone get " skinny " but honestly skinny isn't always good. I'd rather healthy & strong than " skinny " so to keep balanced I do some Squats, Lunges, Hip Extension, Deadlifts, Leg Press and a lil Plyometrics. I always change things up. Belly dancing, kick boxing, salsa, yoga anything to get in cardio besides a bike or treadmill. Consistency paired with nutrient packed eating with adequate amounts of protein will be your keys to bringing out the best glutes you have to offer! Remember Strong Is The New Skinny!

Is it Real or is it Reality

I don't see the world the way everyone else does, the fool's heart never does. I see colors and sounds and dreams and hopes and fears and whispers in the dark and words that don't need spoken and moments that last a lifetime and eternities that scamper fleetly by. You might not see what I see but my world is as real and true and happy and sad and joyful and painful as any part of the world you choose to accept as your reality. No I'm not lost in my own little world, I just choose to share the way I see things with those I love, these are not lies nor am I blind. I choose to see the REAL over the reality. I can see more in your eyes and your smile than a worldly man can see in your lifetime. I am nothing more nor nothing less than  me.

Step into your greatness

"If you want a thing bad enough to go out and fight for it, to work day and night for it, to give up your time, your peace and your sleep for it; if all that you dream and scheme is about it and life seems useless with out it and if you gladly sweat for it and fret for it and plan for it and lose all your terror of the opposition for it and if you simply go after that thing that you want with all of your capacity, strength and sagacity, faith, hope and confidence and stern pertinacity; if neither co-poverty, famish or cold, sickness or pain or body and brain can keep you away from the thing that you want; if dogged and grim you besiege and beset it, with god’s help you will get it." ~ Les Brown

Day 6

I would trade places with anyone for a day. It doesn't matter if it is a celebrity, a convict on death row, a child, a professional or someone who is terminally ill and in pain. Since its only one day, I would trade places with them for the experience & hopefully come back & become a better me. I'm very fortunate and blessed. I truly have had so many challenges in my life and I know I would only grow as a person to see life through the eyes of another.
