You never know where life will lead you. I thought when I first met them that they were all so kind and sincere. My second year in Haiti I created another program to help families. If you have not been to Haiti then it might be hard to understand the daily struggles of life. No electricity, No running water, No fridge, No clean water, No washer, So many no’s. One thing I knew right away about Robenson was that he was that guy. Yes, the one who helped set up, the one who help after and even stayed late. He is that guy who lends a hand, his heart and dedicates his life to serve others. If you know him like I do, then you know. His wife is so kind, patient, sharing, encouraging, inspirational and behind every good man, there is an AMAZING woman. Right? Right! She is AMAZING and so supportive. I had no idea that years after meeting them that together with LOTS of help we have THE SUNSHINE HOME IN HAITI. It is a home for children whom their parents are dead, abused children, street children and Slave children. Abuse on many levels. As you can imagine most all the children have not been in school as well. Robenson and Farah along with lots of help including monthly sponsors have been able to make a HUGE impact in their lives. Currently there are 14 children in the home. We are always looking for sponsors. Handshealinghearts.com

Click below for more details. We also 2 facebook pages, Hands Healing Hearts and The Sunshine Home (In Haiti) We also have a Tik-Tok Chanel.

In life we never know who we will meet along our journey and the impact we have on one another. However, I know I am a better person because of the example of Robenson and Farah. Merci Thank you so much, I love you so much.

April was a young mother, when she had her second child and her first child passed away—she dealt with major depression during this time. She describes this time as “dark and ugly”, where she couldn’t get off her couch until she found some relief with medication. She felt uncomfortable with the meds and got off them. As she got off her meds she turned to running, nutrition and service. She now owns a not-for-profit that supports impoverished people including an orphanage in Haiti and other places, she’s also created a grief and loss group in her community. She says “so much has come from my darkest moments to the brightest moments in my life.” She does 3 things every day 1. break a sweat, 2. laugh, and 3. serves somebody.

Life Happens and we can be an active part of it. Here is me on a day I once again had some Awe Ha moments. These are the best moments of my life. Besides my grandbabies, my own babies and all their parents!

On this day, I woke up early and got ready for the plans I made before I went to bed. After getting ready the text came in that those plans were not happening. So! I quickly did that prayer I do ya know the God let me do your will not mine. So, my heart said, you stick to your plans anyways. Of course I had hoped he had other plans for me but I know to follow my heart. I went to the AA meeting alone because the 2 going with me were tired. Which I totally get. So, I went and after instead of getting coffee with them at Feel Love Coffee I ended up here at this garden.

Face it, Whatever “it” is.

This day was everything I really needed.

Time with ME, Myself and I.

First I face it. I do not run!

Then I Pause…..

I have learned to just take it all in. Allow. Don’t force. Just be.

You got this! Be so Brave,

Do Not Be Afraid. It will pass.

I focus on whats in front of me!

This place is a great place to pause and be in the present moment. If your needing a pause get out in a place where you can just be. During the Holidays there are lots of opportunities to go and be. Pausing is what really works for me.

What does food have to do with your mood? Everything! What we eat affects every aspect of our well-being. If you eat like junk you most likely will feel like junk. You always pay for your health. Either pay now or you pay later, the choice is always yours.. Ingredients ingredients ingredients. Read those labels. If you don’t know what the word is it’s most likely a chemical. Here’s a simple recipe that’s super yummy. Yum! Yum! Remember, when we are grieving and experiencing loss and different emotions it is extra important we don’t lean into junk food. Those foods will never help us in the long run. In the moments possibly but you definitely will thrive when you eat real food. Just cook some quinoa, add some spicy pumpkin curry on top, add some cauliflower and some peas. Or whatever you have on hand. Enjoy!
