Finding My Passion !

Image
Passion is feeling very strongly about something and obsession is becoming consumed by something. Passion is something you have in your heart, obsession is of the mind. Passion is something you care about and love; obsession is something you think about all the time. It appears there is a thin line between passion and obsession. Through losing, I received the gift of life. Now I get to give it away by sharing with great gratitude and joy. Finding my passion was so hard to me because through the past process of living, I lost it. While in the process of pre-dying, I found it again. I Found My Passion. Talking to myself led me one day to realize; my past life and how it was. It was about three things; pleasing, proving and achieving. My thoughts were like; People must like me, so as to feel better about ME! I worked hard to please everyone in my life, even the people I didn’t like! It hardly mattered to me; other people’s approval was the source of my self-esteem. “Looking good” was my...

When I talked to my Heart…and my Brain …!!!!

Image
One day, I was talking to my heart and asked “Why are u so kind indeed?! Forgive fast, accept others, help, acknowledge, love, and respect.” It answered me back spontaneously “Because God created me so. He created me from flesh and blood, not from other substances. He made me feel. He made not to ignore feelings around. I am not like the brain, which thinks in a logic manner, uses analytical ways to decide. I have no way to analyze. I just feel. I feel and respond back. I just give without even mind taking back. I wish, I could be like the brain, but I can not, Because God created me so. “ I thought about his response, and because I have them both, my brain and my heart, which affects my soul. I started to analyze back to be more logic after all. So, I started to ask my brain; “Should I forgive? Should I care? Should I be sensitive to that extent? What do I have to do, my dear brain?” It answered without thinking; “Dear! you have to be logic. You have to care but not too much. You have...

Beginning Again..!!!

Image
When people facing difficult life challenges, I have two simple words for them " Begin Again ". To begin again means that you won't give up. To begin again means you're trying. You can either start over and live your life Or spend the rest of your life slowly dying. It is never the falling that makes us fail. It is never the pain or the crying. You can never fail in life, my friend, Unless you give up trying. --Bob Perks It almost sounds too simple. I imagine in the darkest hours of one's life, those words would seem useless or uncaring. But it is indeed the answer. Whatever happens in life, it is not stable at all. Changes in life make us, unstable too. Sometimes, we stop think…so what??!! What do I do now? Life is challenging.. and needs a challenger too. All life challenges bring about an ending--and the chance for a beginning. A job loss presents an opportunity to start over somewhere else and maybe even in another career. A failed marriage does not mean you ...

Who Created the Body Mind Spirit Concept?

Image
When the human unit—mind/body/spirit—is activated in benevolence toward the community of which it is a part, the integrity of life substance is honored, and human potential tends to thrive। (Ellen G। White, Education (Mountain View, Calif.: Pacific Press Publ. Assn., 1903), p. 13.) More than one hundred years ago, Ellen White counseled that when the human body and mind connects with the mind of God, the Holy Spirit takes residence in the heart. When that occurs, the effect of love has a powerful, beneficial influence on the mind and the body, she explains. Subsequently, an atmosphere forms around us that is beneficial to all who come near. Negative emotion, on the other hand, is detrimental to self and to those near us. (Ellen G. White, "Life, Love, and Union," The Signs of the Times, October 20, 1898, b.; "Sabbath-School Influences," Sabbath School Worker, April 1, 1886, a; Sons and Daughters of God (Washington, D.C.: Review and Herald Publ. Assn., 1955); Mind, Cha...

Away Message…

I probably didn’t be blogging here for approximately 2 months from my last post. If you keep coming back here everyday and you couldn’t find anything yet and getting disappointed and / or missing me because there is nothing new here to read, here is what you can do. Look at the RED square up!!! Imagine yourself in a really awesome mood after achieving phase IIof CHANGE. And then… Wait for me… I am coming soon … back forever and will never be late again… Will never leave you again forever..! Till we meet….!!! Shahira.

I will Change, Accept, and Expect positively… I will Balance my LIFE…(II)

Image
So, here we have more two things to realize before going into phase III, which are; Acceptance and Expectations. Why these two? Because during the change process, there are some things we have to accept in life. One of my students came to me one day and told me, my mother! I can not talk with her at all. She is always even giving orders or shouting. I reached an extent that I do not talk with her at all. Even I don’t ask for advice or even listen to her, I just hear. She expected from me an opposite answer than the one I answered and she was shocked of that. I told her, have you ever thought to put yourself before in her position? Have you ever realized the reason why she is shouting? Have you ever think is there something wrong with her? She said; NO!! I told her ACCEPT. Accept because she is your mother, and she will never be returned back one day. Accept because if you do not, you will realize that you lost irrevocable time with her. You will never be back in time again. Then I star...

I will Change, Accept, and Expect positively… I will Balance my LIFE…

“Please God Give the serenity to accept the things that I can not Change, To Change the things that ought to be changed and the Wisdom to know the difference“ Life is a hard equation to solve, but on the other hand we can solve the things that we have hands over. Today I will explain a simple thing to you to reach a certain outcome at the end when finished. One day, I read a quote that is wrote by a friend of mine that made me really think in depth of what she had written. She wrote “If I have thousands things that make me Cry, I also have millions that make me Laugh”. It’s just a nice quote that she wrote, to let her pass her sorrow time. Life is a mixture of sad and happy moments. We always as humans concentrate only at the appeared picture to us, which is the SAD view, ignoring the things that we already have that lead at the end to satisfaction. If we think, for a while, that our main aim here from the very beginning is to achieve a certain state of mind other than the one we are i...

Being NICE…isn’t Weakness at all!!

Image
Today I will get out of the subject but not too far, as something has come up. I wrote yesterday on my facebook account in the status bar “Being NICE... Isn’t Weakness at ALL!!!” after writing it, I received a lot of messages from my friends saying their opinion on what I wrote. That made me thinks on today’s post to you as I want to share this with you all. I wrote the quote at the very beginning from my deep heart, it was something that I felt and didn’t expect the comments they wrote to me about. I wrote it because I had a recent experience through. After reading all their comments, I found that some were with and/or against it. One of them told me, yes being nice is not really weakness, it is how strong you are, how you can deal with others whoever they are in a nice way. Being nice sometimes is a process you take because of you. It is an attitude you choose to be a leader with, in your life. But on the other hand, some others told me, yes being nice is not weakness at all, but it ...

I will CONTINUE… whatever happens…

Image
How many times in our life that we wish for a chance? A chance to change things that are happening or even to make a fresh beginning, a chance to blot our mistakes and change failure into winning। It does not take a special time to make a brand-new START. We have already started. It only takes a deep desire to continue with all our heart to Change, from mind, soul and body. Let’s start like this in the very beginning in phase 2, and then we will discuss what will DO; Through phase 1; in Change; we trusted ourselves, our qualities, imagined success, got the reason to change, started to track ourselves, started to Imagine, Visualize, Feel, each success we can reach. Here; in phase 2; you will motivate yourself, as motivation is an energetic way to keep on the CHANGE track system. Say; *I will continue whatever happens; this will be my main goal to refresh what is missed within ME again. *I will continue whatever happens; I sometimes found periods in MY life that I stop everything in lif...

I have tried everything…!!!

Image
Real life situations put me in a destination that I have tried everything in life and that made me stronger. I really feel bad when I meet someone facing the situations that I have passed through, and think about him how I could help him. That was my first thinking set of mind. Now I help with force. Help because I already have the responsibility for helping others. Help the reason, Referred to my job that made me meet a lot of people from different backgrounds, educations and cultures, through giving courses and training them to change. I really feel sad when I see someone does not know how to put a goal for self and follow, how he does not know to communicate and understand others, how he does not know how to say his opinion and just have to follow, obey others without stating his reasons to say NO. Resisting CHANGE!!! I really tried everything in life… and know how it is so hard to control self. By passing this state of mind it is so easy NOW. So Lets try with us together, boosting...

Long time …No hear...No see... I know I didn’t write in my blog a long time ago…but I really was so depressed… Yes I the person who I am helping others to pass certain situations in life…are depressed herself... Facing real live situations…made me stop and thin for a while and set priorities… to the target people that I wan to write for… It is too bad when I get into real life in more depth than before... The past period... I have been exposed really to other cultures... And other ages... Suddenly that I discovered that I got matured enough to pass the situation... And I know exactly who wants me to help.. I have received lots of mails … replied most of them and that made me mad…of facing life with teenagers... And how they face life as we did 10 years ago… I just want to start my mission again and in so simple words… I will help… Let’s write this with each other…: FACE YOUR PAST WITHOUT REGRET… Do not look back… Start over… Just learn from your mistakes.. And put them as a note for re...
