Kidz...

For some time I have the opportunity to "work" with some kids at a kindergarten and I must admit, I am not "working" on them as much as they "work" on me. It is simply amazing to be in the middle of 4, 5, 6 year old children. The air is full of energy, freshness, purity, honesty and playfulness. 
However, there is one little girl who really made me speechless and thaught me what it means to be true to yourself, complete and not split in two personalities...
While she was acting like a little boss among the other kids (and I have to admit she earns it), she was being mean (in my opinion) to another girl, and when I gave her the "Young lady ...!" speech, she said it into my face how she needs to be like this because the other kids are bulling her around but the way she told it to me, as if she would be ready to die for her truth and for her honour. I could see in her eyes the "fire" and aliveness...and then she respectfully told me that she understand my point as well and apologized and made friends with the other girl.
While they were playing, she was so serious about what she was doing...even if she would only glue two pages together, she was in that MOMENT , releasing anger ...and whatever she felt before and than smile and playing again.


This little girl was my hero that day :)

To live...



We make a high jump being scared of heights…that’s courage













We pray for someone we love to heal and it works…that’s faith















We give a part of us to someone who can hurt us…that’s trust













We go to bed, set the alarm though we are not sure tomorrow is gonna come for us…that’s...

Roots before branches



I don’t know about you…but there comes a time when you feel like throwing all the Guru’s and all the conceptions and all the beliefs and etiquettes you gathered from the people around you in the fire of your truth and remain only with what you came to this world the REAL you, your intuition, your faith, your courage…your inner strength and the love you feel inside.

There is a reason why we come to this world holding our fists tight…as if we are protecting, keeping something secret and when we die …our palms are wide open …nothing to learn anymore, or to protect…that’s it. Along the way through life there are people who will serve your truth and people who will take you away from it, willingly or unwillingly and people will call you selfish and maybe you really are, but just imagine if each one of us would be selfish for themselves not by taking something from the others in order to be happy, not by hurting the others, but by making sure we are true to ourselves, that we are only doing what we feel it is right for us. Would we have to lean on others? Would others have to lean on us? If each one of us would experience our inner strength. Would we rush to compromise ourselves? With the risk of the people rejecting us but still being able to love ourselves the way we are.
Just think about this…if we would meet our true selves how many things would change in our lives.

To inspire or to be inspired…that is the question




It’s not a matter of becoming better than the other one, to compete with others and step on every head you find in order to feel the greatest. Our greatness is not about this…Our Grace is not about this…Our power and virtue does not measure in how many hearts and ego’s we’ve defeated…but in how much we have defeated our weaknesses, conquered our fears and pushed our limits. This is what I was so lucky to see lately through the people I have near me…Every single person we meet has his\her own battle and if you can see that and if you can look beyond that and rather than judging or being jealous to be able to allow us to teach one another.
I see it like this…If you can inspire someone through your nature do it, just for the beauty of it …just for the fun and for the love for it...and if you did not find your mojo yet that’s still fine…you can support the people who do great things, be there for them at every step, remind them through the rough times that they are being supported and encourage them to continue!
And now …I’m gonna get back to my actual job, which is not writing J)) but when inspiration comes…you gotta let it flow :D

And remember...

Beyond

There must be more about this life, more than we can see, more than we can grasp...
All the material things, all our wishes and desires , coming and going...even ourselves... I ask myself what is the one thing that matters , above and beyond...
What makes us go out of bed in the morning, chase our dreams, embrace whatever comes, share with others...wether we listen to music, watch the stars, paint, run a business, pilot an airplane, save lives, dance , teach others to dance, do sports, train others...get inspired and inspire others...
What is this energy we all share? what is it we see when we look in each other's eyes? what is when we meet new people that inspire us and we get the nice , warm feeling...hey , I kinda now this person for a long time, and though you were total strangers 5 mins ago, now you talk like you've known each other for a lifetime?
What is the greatest and yet simplest "thing" we can experience in this lifetime ...and yet so easy to miss it out...

Namaste!
