Falling leaves
As the tires crunch over the fallen leaves my eyes watch as more yellow orange and red leaves graceful dance along my cobblestone driveway. I knew as soon as I opened the door the cool fall air will hit my skin and I’ll be able to breath the fresh air and familiarity of being home. I click the button on my visor and the right side of the garage begin to open as I slowly pull into my sacred space. I grabbed my purse off the passenger seat and place my feet onto the cool concrete below me. As I step out of the car I look around the garage in the corner upon a platform stands my partners took bench and chest. The bright red is stark against the light grey walls and makes the red of the American flag seem even older than it is. The whole garage is neatly organized just like my husband likes it. Tools and bench in one area car cleaners and special pieces in cabinets and always freshly swept. The garage and shed outside are his domain. The shed matches our home which is light grey with blueberry blue doors and shutters. It subtle yet stands out surrounded by trees for miles. Our drive way has woods on both sides for 1/8 of a mile until it opens to our front yard and house.

Walking The Emotions Away
Every single day there is something that tugs hard on one of our emotions. As human beings, we need those emotions to help release the things that are running in circles inside us. When it comes to a professional moment we need to find that inner peace. The inner peace is part of what helps us to survive each day. A person can only just deal for so long before the walls begin to crumble.

A Dark and Turbulent Time
It's 2018, just a little less than 2 years ago when I experienced a moment in my life where I didn't have anywhere to live and was basically trying to live out of my car just so I wouldn't have to give my dog to someone until I got back on my feet. It was summertime. I had lost all faith from my family. My friends were there for me as much as they could be but for the first time ever, I felt truly lost. My mother had enough of my juvenile ways and I just wasn't ready to stop.

A Ten Minute Trek
Working about ten minutes from home has always made it easy to save money on gas for my parents, so I generally leave a half an hour before i’m scheduled to start my shift. The walk there is spent calming my nerves for the long hours of customer service ahead and I’ll admit I find it difficult to reach a state of calm.

The Song
The tree she leaned against was called Green Mother. Seven other trees sat along the banks of the river Eliha. They were Red Mother, Rosy Mother, Blue Mother, Golden Mother, Silver Mother, Orange Mother and Brown Mother. Ruhee could have selected any of the trees for her ritual, but from the beginning, she was pulled towards the Green Mother.

Immaculate Positivity.
YOU SPEAK GOOD INTO YOUR LIFE..........Wiser words have never been said by my cousin, okay maybe there have been a few more wise words spoken by her......but she's getting the immaculate vibe we are sending out to the universe right now. When being positive the universe sends out vibes and then reverses them back into the world you live in , and you recieve goodness. The more positive you are, the better chances of immaculate vibes will be for you. Being negative is looking at your glass half empty but in reality it is all the way full. When you think about it, life can either go one or two ways and you have full control of which way to turn. When I was in high school, life always went one way for me and no other way. I had no way of knowing that my decisions based in high school would affect me the way they did. My dad has always told me every action, has a reaction. When I realized that what I was putting into my world was maxing out my energy either for the worse or best, I began to realize a few things and I hope these things help you in trying to be a positive person, and letting that pitcher flow more than it ever has.

MY MANIFESTATION HOME
MY MANIFESTATION HOME, you may wonder why I call it that. It is the home that I see and love. I want to come home every night to my beautiful family, in my beautiful car to my beautiful home. Let me describe it so that you know. The house is made of gray concrete outside on the forst floor. White concrete on the second, both floors have stain beautiful chestnut wood. There are small vertical windows and high smal windows around the house. On the top floor are windows all around. To the back of the house is a porch and deck that stretches the length of the house with tall christmas tree bushes, covering the grey fence. The roof also has a thick octave shaped class.
