Celebrating at Disneyland...!

I love October.  It is the home of Halloween, the beginning of Hockey, the World Series and of course, the first weekend is dedicated to Gay Days at Disneyland.  For the past few years I have had the pleasure of joining my friends and my cousin in support by wearing my red shirt, this year I strayed and went with the 'Straight but not Narrow' theme, though I am not completely sure everyone got the point.  Oh well.  Those who did yay, those who didn't, you probably didn't need to. Right? Right.

I thought about documenting the weekend day by day, but pictures are generally more fun and more easier on the eyes, then a bunch of words detailing my good time, which some might find as boring as vacation slides.  Okay, usually I would over share, but today, just keepin' it simple and I decided to express what Gay Days means to me.  Then I will share some pics from the weekend.

Although I can't speak for everyone at Disneyland that day, Gay Days, which is not officially sponsored by Disneyland, always seems to bring out the best (and sometimes worst??) in people.  Fortunately I experienced only the magic of the two days.  It's nice to walk around and see people being themselves.  My Uncle Dennis expressed to me how much he wanted to go, but mainly because he said it would be nice to be able to walk around without being stared at, mocked, or criticized for his lifestyle.  And what exactly is a lifestyle? Man and Woman is a lifestyle, but we don't call it that, we call it a relationship or marriage.  Well guess what folks, love is love. Black, white, pink, man/man, man/woman, woman/woman, yellow, green, blue......etc.  Whether you agree or not, people don't just wake up one day and say I'm going to fall in love with someone who shaves their legs or face just like me.  It just comes naturally.  Yes, I am a lover of the male species, but I embrace people as they should be embraced, for themselves.  Life isn't easy for anyone, so why make it harder on people who just want to live their life peacefully and love who they want to love. 

Remember, our souls are energy and our bodies just the shell we hold it in.  Energy is universal, just as love is.

Okay, so now I'll get off my soap box. And Just to be clear, these are my own opinions. I don't go out of my way to try to make people think differently, I just try to present things from my point of view...typically, like a blog does.

And now for some pictures....lol!

Meditation for a Full or New Moon.

Are you one of those people who are a little unbalanced emotionally, or mentally, during a full moon?  Perhaps you go a little crazy, or maybe you turn into a hairless werewolf? Well, I may have the solution you are looking for.  I can't promise it will work miracles, but there is a possibility it might be able to help bring you back to a desirable level of sanity. Some people don't give the moon enough credit. Sure a full moon lights up the earth a bit more than usual, and sure it might make some canines bay at the moon, but it can also mess with your personal being. Think about it, moon cycles play with the ocean tide right?  Well, seeing how the body is made up of a large percentage of water, isn't it plausible that the moon is also playing with the human body? Throwing it off balance and making you feel not so emotionally fresh? I am not a scientist. I am not a trained person when it comes to meditations, so I am putting that out there now. ...

Mantra: I choose to be happy/excited.

  Hi!  I am back.  I posted my summation blog yesterday, talking about my thirty day meditation journey. I mentioned I would also blog about the daily mantra, but alas, I forgot.  Oops. Sorry about that.  I do believe everything happens for a reason though, after all how could I possibly write two separate blogs, about two things that go hand in hand so well?   I choose to be happy.  I choose to be excited.  I personally feel these two can be fused together.  I mean what moment of excitement didn't result in happiness, or what moment of happiness didn't result in excitement?  Though we usually associate excitement with something big, the littlest of things can also make one excited.   A few days ago, my dad called me up and we chatted for a bit.  Recently back from a trip to Hawaii, I asked my dad to bring me back a pen or two.  I love pens, they are my weakness.  It is also something small when people...

30 Day Meditation..Yes, I am trying something new.

Anyone who knows me, knows that I can be wound a little tight sometimes.  Although I love the little things in life, it is the daily annoyances (ie. Traffic, rude people, etc.) that can toss me over the edge on some days.  I am not sure what makes each day different from the next, in my mind anyway, but I do know that some days are rougher than others to get through.  As of late, my cousin has inspired me to reach deep within and start weeding out the negativity that has been left behind from all sorts of things in my life, including past relationships, and the deaths of my mom and one of my best friends, who was like a soul sister to me. I am a Capricorn, so I tend to hold on to things.  What can I say, I give a good glare. *Shrugs shoulders*.  However, a good glare, or a left over vibe from some moment gone wrong, is not conducive to my heart health. Yes, the little ticker is running mighty fine, like a well tuned car, but reality i...
