How to Know if He���s ���The One���

Or Not the One? https://unsplash.com/@jess33mx

How can you know for sure that your partner is the one for you?
The simple truth is, you can���t.
As a young teenager, I threw a declaration out into the wind that I would marry a man with curly hair who loved water sports.
When I met my then-boyfriend, now-husband, it was a lifetime later, different school, different friends and yet I met this young man who loved nothing better than to go water skiing with friends every weekend, and, yes, he had curly hair!
Now, several decades later, we have our own little run-around boat and love nothing better than to go out on the lake or for a paddle in quiet waters. But those several decades were definitely not smooth sailing.

https://unsplash.com/@matthewclarkrogers

From the outside, it looks like he was my 'one.' But there were many occasions when I wondered, in fact we both wondered, if  we wanted this life together. You see, when I threw my declaration out into the Universe, I was young and knew what my deepest desires were, but as we get older, we tend to let life's expectations carry us away from our 'knowing.'
Fortunately for me, for us, we did everything we could to make our relationship stronger, stay together, and forge the life of our dreams. Now I'm not saying every couple should do this, there are definitely times when you need to cut loose. But that's just the point, not every relationship is meant to be 'the one', some are meant to be 'the way-showers' because we tend to get lost in life every now and again.
So the point of my writing today, is to ask you:
Are you living the life your young self ordained for you?If not, how can you get back to the life of your desires?
I don't have the answers for you but I have a few suggestions that might help:Go back to doing the things you loved doing at a younger age. That might be something creative, something physical like workouts, trekking, cycling, camping or anything that gets you back in touch with the you who knew what you wanted.Start to observe yourself inwardly. That might be journaling, meditating, spending quiet contemplative time in nature or just simply taking a few deep breaths.

None of us have all the answers but the deeper you get to know yourself, really know who you are, what you're about and what makes you smile inwardly, the clearer the answers will be.
So go and have some fun, enjoy the holiday season and I will be back with you to hear all your wondrous discoveries next week.
In the meantime I'll leave you with this...

Life is a beautiful journey, enjoy the ride ���� 

 

I've spent a lot of time on the water lately and gained some deep knowledge from the tides of life and ebb and flow of seasons and cycles in relationships, so if you'd like to read a little deeper insight from me, I'm certain this book will be of great value to you.

And if you're longing to travel again and spend time in nature, whether on the water or walking the trails, my memoir, En Route, is sure to delight you. The ebook is ready for pre-order at this link or you can leave a comment in the menu bar above if you'd like to be on the waitlist for the paperback. 

En Route: The best is yet to be, is for all those wanting to find themselves, and live their life full of love, but on their terms.

5 Must-Read Relationship Books

Holiday Reads to Help with your Relationships
https://unsplash.com/@thoughtcatalog

As the holidays get near, it's difficult to keep daily routines running smoothly and this is a problem for people who don't like their days disrupted. It's particularly difficult when you have friends or family staying for long periods through the holiday season.
I've listed some books below that will help us understand the complexities in a range of relationships, and help us to see the perspective of the other person, or people, as well. 
The following books relate to aspects of our relationship with:Ourselves Our parents Partner Children  Extended family, friends or even colleagues. I have read them all and have gained different insights from each one. (I am in NO WAY affiliated).
We'll start with our relationship with ourselves, because ultimately, that's where our interactions stem from, in every single relationship we encounter.
Hector and the Search for Happiness by Francois Lelord


Our relationship with ourselves is our primary relationship. The way we engage, react, respond and interact with others originates within. If we feel that happiness eludes us, it's because we are looking for outward gratification. 
That's the premise in Hector and the Search for Happiness as the main character travels far and wide looking for things and/or people to make him happy. It's the ultimate realisation of his own inner peace that returns him to his home where he feels deeply grateful for all that he has.
It's written in an easy-to-read style which you should be able to finish in a few days BUT the simple lessons he instils will remain with you for a long time.
Available here.
Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant? by Roz Chast


I feel that our relationship with our parents is our second-most important one (see above), because the parent/child relationship shapes us in ways we are sometimes not even aware of.
Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant? Covers the aspect of our parents' old-age in a light-hearted comic-style prose. It's a memoir and therefore very relatable to many families.
It helps us understand the perspective of our aging parents with acceptance. It lessens the angst of knowing how to care for our older generation and brings a bit of humour into the awkward dynamics of this golden age era.
You can buy it at this link.The Greatest Gift by Rachael Johns


Though written in a fictional holiday-read prose, The Greatest Gift touches deeply on the relationship we forge with our life partner. Decisions that we make depend on their goals and affect their future too.
Whether to start a family or not, is a personal choice and this story reveals aspects from both sides. But more than that, is the effect that ALL of our decisions (not only parenthood), have on our partners' lives. Some are irreversible, others are salvageable, either way, the effects last forever.
[Having children can be a sensitive topic so tread lightly if you decide to read this one].
Grab a copy with a click.
Understanding Your Child's Temperament by Beverly LaHaye                                             

This book helped me so much when my children were in the 9-10 year age bracket. They undergo many hormonal changes in that 'tween' stage, verging on a leap into maturity.
Not only does the author of Understanding Your Child's Temperament discuss personality traits but also how they relate to specific situations. Plus, she goes on into their young adult lives as well, and how they adjust to the working world within the dynamics of their characteristics.
It's an invaluable book if you're looking to strengthen your bond with your child before the teen years, as those teenager days can be confusing for all concerned.
You'll find copies over here.
Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman


Oh! The social ineptitude of Eleanor Oliphant is cringe-worthy but written with great empathy so as to ease the awkwardness of her blunders.
Gail Honeyman writes with dry humour as we follow Eleanor's daily life through workdays, home-days and her ever-widening social circle. Her relationships with co-workers and parents is enough to make you want to reach into the book and give Eleanor a great big comforting hug.
A wonderful way to explore the idiosyncrasies we each have and the understanding that we should give each other in a wide berth of acceptance.

Real Relationship Tips that Work!

 5 Tips for a Loving Relationship
https://unsplash.com/@k_yasser

Here are my 5 tried and tested truth bombs that work!Listen with your eyes!          Making and maintaining eye contact - without staring like a stalker! - shows your genuine interest and makes the person who is talking to you, feel heard and acknowledged. Make time for each other           And make it meaningful. Instead of just going on a picnic, out for dinner or for a walk or hike, do something special to mark the occasion. Perhaps a quiet dance at home before dinner, or a favourite pillow/cushion for the picnic - get creative! This shows the other person that you truly want to be with them.Do something just for them         To make someone feel valued, do something that you might not enjoy but you know they do. It could be a movie of their choice but not particularly your taste, or maybe cook/order their favourite meal even if you really felt like pizza!  This let's them know that you've really thought about them.Be kind just because         If your partner hates their feet being touched for goodness sake don't give them a foot rub! But if they love a shoulder massage, do that instead. Kindness begets kindness and if you're the one initiating random acts of kindness in your relationship, do so with love and it will be returned.Ask if they would like help         If you see your partner struggling with something, ask first if they need help. That way you're not just jumping in and doing what you think needs doing or giving help that you think they need. Asking first, gives them the opportunity to decide if and what they would like help with. This gives them their power back to take control of a situation that might have been stressful.

Honour the Men in Your Life

 International Men's Day



International Men's Day is held annually on 19 November. It is an opportunity to celebrate men and boys in all their diversity. Many people also use the day to highlight some of the key social issues that men and boys around the world face. International Men's Day Info

Disclaimer: The following information is based on my opinion entirely and is not meant, in any way, to persuade the reader's rights to their own opinion. The celebration of the men in our lives DOES NOT INCLUDE abusive relationships. Please seek help if you are in an abusive situation: Global Link
Honoring the Men in Our LivesWe all start off in life with a male figure-head 'somewhere' in our lives. Some may not be present as father-figures but we are all conceived by both male and female interaction.
So what is it then, that determines our perception of the male presence around us?
Undoubtedly the direct attention of those in our daily lives, whether it be family, friends or colleagues affect our overall psyche to establish a pattern for future intimate relationships.
In my memoir, En Route, I discuss in detail, my relationships with the prominent males in my life. My husband being the main character as our story unravels from young love to mid-life love. As you can imagine, we have had to go through many transformations to keep up the the ever-changing landscape of our growth and maturity. Along with our various roles in career, parenthood and empty-nesters, the changing outlook through aging did a lot to metamorphose our relationship as well.
To pay tribute to my husband on International Men’s Day, I’m offering my ebook for free. Creating Sparks that Last showcases the progress of our emotional closeness and connection through 35 years of marriage.Available at this link
Sadly, four highly respected males that I've written about in my memoir have since passed, and only one of them received my manuscript in email format. I'm not even sure if he got to read it because it was just a few days later that he transcended. 
Which is why I wanted to make sure I give tribute, TODAY, to all the males who have shaped me in some way, whether positively or seemingly negatively. We can either grow better or bitter from our experiences and I choose to grow better.

https://unsplash.com/@dj_jpeg
If we want our men folk to open up to us we need to give them the right tools to learn to process their emotions in a healthy way.
I encourage you to listen to this 7 minute video by motivational speaker Leo Buscaglia on Taking Risks. He says, "The greatest risk in life is to risk nothing." Leo is closely aligned with his emotional awareness. He shares valuable ideas on the connections we make with others.
Primarily, my relationship with my Dad would have shaped my view initially, until I became my own person and formulated my own outlook. My unique variations of personality and traits ultimately shape who I am.
Other prominent males in my life have been many and varied, from my two sons, to my step-dads, grandfathers, uncles, honorary uncles, cousins, friends and siblings. Male colleagues played a role in my early working days but later I worked in the mostly-female environment of childcare.
I don't want to make generalizations here but I want to say that the psyche of men as a whole is an untapped resource of emotion with a LOT of misunderstandings along the way.
Traditionally, their role is one of provider and problem-solver, but more recently, men are being encouraged more and more to allow their emotions to be visible to the outside world; that it is not an ill-conceived notion of weakness to admit mental fatigue.

Men need to be given the opportunity to really explore the feel of their emotions and to experience the healing of going through the hurting of it.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Elora Canne
What can you do today, to honor the important male's in your life?
Your partner, sons, relatives, friends or colleagues.
Let them know how much they mean to you and maybe even highlight what it is you value about their character.

What Makes You Happy?

Are You Your Own Stumbling Block to Happiness?Hello Blog Family! It's been a hot minute since you last heard from me. 
Thank you for your patience while I made a huge move, relocating house, home, hearth and heart. As you can tell, this move was a big deal for me, moving far away from my family. This may seem counterintuitive to my happiness but the joy I have already found after just two weeks in my new home far outshines any shadow of sadness that might have been lingering. 

https://unsplash.com/@taiscaptures
5 Things Making Me Happy This Week
For that reason, I wanted to share with you the pleasures I have gained from setting up home in a far away place:

Finding new interests that excite ME:First off, the emphasis is on 'me' because without my own pleasures in life, I have very little joy to impart to others, whether intentionally or by exuding my vibe.
It's not necessarily big events or material possessions for me, it's the miniscule shift in awareness.
When I am attuned to my surroundings, the cognitive alertness of gratitude is heightened. When I say 'attuned to my surroundings', I mean noticing the tiny - the glint of sunshine on a dewy leaf; the whooshing sound of wind through the leaves or, more sensorial, the feel of the chill water tickling my toes.
You see, we've moved to a coastal village and, although forests and trees are my sanctuary, I am finding new experiences that bring peace to my inner being. New experiences in surroundings I am not customarily comfortable in - paddle boarding, sand-in-toes beach walks and ice cold ocean waves. But these are stimulating my appreciation for the unknown and undiscovered secrets of new life.
I've spoken of the sanctity I find amongst trees quite a bit in my memoir, En Route, and it’s just opened for preorder at this link! Release date February 2022.
    2. Witnessing the deep satisfaction of seeing my husband thrive:I was really surprised at how deep a feeling of satisfaction I got after seeing the pleasure in my husband as he enjoyed the activities that bring him contentment. I'm not a fan of boating or fishing but he is, and accompanying him gave me the gift of appreciating his joy. 
There have been a couple of experiences where this has happened in our relationship before, I've written about them here and have been just as surprised to discover them then, as I was now. 
Living on the water has always been my husband's dream for as long as we've been together. I've known this from day 1. In fact, an interesting take on manifesting one's life is that, as a school girl before I met my husband, I told my friends that I wanted a man who enjoyed water sports! Strange, as I'm more forest than ocean loving. But when I met him, we enjoyed going to the beach and water-skiing just about every weekend. Now we're back to living the life we both imagined living!





    3.The sweetness in anticipating family visits:The build-up to expecting family for a visit is made all the more celebratory with the plans we make to create happy memories. 
Memories don't just happen.
Planning for them, makes them happen.
And it's in the planning that we get to anticipate the joy of happy times together. Our first visitor was our youngest son and our second visitors were our oldest son and his family. Both visits required different outcomes. Both visits were highly anticipated by my husband and I as we carved out experiences that we thought each of them might enjoy. This delighted us as much as it delighted them to engage in experiences they couldn't participate in at home.

    4. Re-Inventing a new life, meeting new friends and neighbours:Research shows that the cells in our body renew themselves entirely, every 7-10 years. 
https://www.science.howstuffworks.com Has a great explanation under the heading:Know yourself; love yourself; be true to yourself - read more at the link below or read the brief summary next.
Cell regeneration 

What Frisen found is that the body's cells largely replace themselves every 7 to 10 years. In other words, old cells mostly die and are replaced by new ones during this time span. The cell renewal process happens more quickly in certain parts of the body, but head-to-toe rejuvenation can take up to a decade or so.
That means a new physical vessel for us a good few times over the longevity of our lives. So why not new character-casting as well? Now don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about shallow pretense of someone we are not, I'm talking about selecting experiences, friends and goals in alignment with new expectations for our new lives.
What new endeavours would you pursue if you didn't put any limitations on yourself?
https://unsplash.com/@basglaap
    5. De-cluttering - Fresh Outlook; Letting Go:Confession: I am a hoarder! Not the obsessive unhealthy type but WOW, do I hold onto stuff!
Why? I had to ask myself this repeatedly. And not just while I was packing up at our old home, but unpacking in our new home too.
And I came across a truth, a discovery which I think might apply to a lot of us.
It's not so much the stuff that we want to hold onto, as much as the memories that the stuff brings. I know this to be true of a coffee mug I was keeping - not even my mug! It belonged to my son which he bought on a trip overseas - I was nowhere near at the time because he was a young adult traveling with friends. I WASN'T EVEN PRESENT WHEN HE BOUGHT THE COFFEE MUG! Yet I wanted to keep it because of a funny travel story he told us relating to the infamous mug. Why? I ask again. Because, as his mother, I wanted to experience every facet of his life. I didn't want to let go of the fact that he is my baby. And so I realised that it was time for me to let go. To let go of outdated thought patterns, material possessions that no longer inspire admiration and a lifestyle that no longer suits my new outlook.

The Importance of Self-Care

If Not Ourselves, Then Who? 

[I invite you to take in the information below and apply it to your daily self-care routine as set out by our Guest Blogger Jessica Ruiz]

Javier Allegue Barros via Unsplash

If we don’t take good care of ourselves, who will?

Self-care is very important.  We are sometimes so busy taking care of others that we forget to take care of ourselves.  

There are different types of self-care:  

Exercising is one and it helps you to relieve           stress.  Exercising can be fun.  Some people like 
          dancing.  

          I love to dance and I love music. 

          Dancing is a fun way to exercise. Don’t get me   

          wrong, I know that things happen, and it

          is hard to exercise, but you also need to take care 

          of your health. It's important to find an exercise 

          routine that suits your health needs. 

The second type is taking time for yourself to           enjoy the simple things in life.  I love to

          read books. I have books that I still need to read.   

          I know we can be busy, but we also

          need to spend time with family and friends.    

          Spending time with family and friends by

          going out and going to the park. Especially in 

          these times we need to be grateful for the

          simple things in life.  

The third type is eating in moderation.            During the week I eat homemade food.  It is hard

          but I try not to eat too much junk food.  Drink 

          water.  Try to drink less soda.  

          For example: I love chocolate and will eat 

          chocolate twice a week.

          Soda- I will only drink soda when I go out to eat. 

          Junk food-I love potato chips.  I try to eat a small 

          bag once or twice a week.  

          (Disclaimer: Always consult your health care 

          provider before making changes to your nutrition              

          plan).

The fourth type is expressing yourself.            Journaling is one way of expressing yourself.  I

          love to journal.  I started journaling during the 

          4th grade.  I remember my teacher

          introduced us to journaling.  Journaling helps to 

          express yourself with words.  Others

          express themselves through art.  

          Some people draw or paint. My talent would be 

          journaling and writing.
