OC.

The OC-ness in me strikes again. I am now organizing my digital files like crazy, the scrapping materials in particular. I decided to go through each of my kits and choose the elements that I like and I think that I will reach for over and over again. I then put them in a particular directory each, like ribbons, frames, flowers, etc. I think this will make my scrapping easier as I don’t need to check on every kit to look for a particular element when I scrap. I am halfway my organization, however, my inbox is once again cluttered. I haven’t been able to go online, thus the hgh that I need to look into remains undone.

I Am.

Toms.

I don’t have plans of getting another pair for the simple reason that I can’t keep the single pair that I have clean. The shoes is so comfortable that I wear it all the time. But since it is made of cloth, mine is a bit dirty. Aside from the fact that my son keeps on stepping on them, I am not sure if I can wash the shoes. Anyway I came across this pretty thing from pinterest. Yes, most of my recent posts are from pinterest. I can’t get enough of the site. They have ideas, tips, tutorials and even products that they actually use and recommend like these hair loss products. Anyway, this isToms neon green crochet classic women’s shoes. And this pretty green shoes changed my mind. However, I can’t seem to find this in their site. Maybe this was from previous season.

Haha.

Pinterest.

Instead of looking for hot tub covers, I am now glued to pinterest. There is so much pretty images and ideas and inspiration that you can get from it. Too bad, I can’t create an account. I need to be invited and as I write I am still on the waiting list. Sigh. I can’t wait to snag all the pretty things I see in there. Pinterest is a place to catalog the things you love. And there’s so much stuff I love in there. Give it a try, you’ll get hooked.

A Pretty Reminder.

On A Roll.

With blogging that is. I don’t always get the inspiration to blog. So now that I am in sort of a blog mode, I have to take advantage of it. Add to that the POS systems that I need to check online. I seem to get inspired when I get to read real blogs. I mean, the blogs with real stories and photos. Gone are the days when bloggers actually make time to share personal stories and photos. I didn’t make lengthy personal posts ever since, but I did make it a point to share photos. I rarely do that now. Besides the fact that I do not want to share so much of myself and my family online, my life is quite uneventful. And yes, like most, I am trying to save my stories for “future” use, if you know what I mean. So until my next personal post.

Follow Your Creativity.

Creativity comes from looking for the unexpected and stepping outside your own experience.
~Masaru Ibuka

You are creative. You can choose to live your creativity or not live it. But choosing not to live it does not mean it’s not there.

You are an individual essence. No one can create in the exact same way you can.

Creativity is like your fingerprint. Whatever you create will be like a snowflake. It won’t be completely replicable. Yours will have your personal fingerprint.

Creativity is renewal. We breathe new life when we create. We give ideas and concepts that have never existed the chance to manifest. We provide new opportunity for ourselves to see things from new perspectives.

Follow the beat inside of yourself. If I want to create, I should. And I will. And so should you. Find out what moves you and do that thing. Make it a habit. Invite that thing to become a part of your life.

You don’t have to compete with anyone. It’s not a contest. In creating, you are fulfilling your own deepest sense of individuality. How you choose to manifest your creativity is completely up to you.

You expand your comfort zone. Step by step, you learn to orient yourself in the unfamiliar, and you spend less time cringing and being afraid and more time being curious about what else there is to learn. It does not happen overnight, but it does happen and it’s a very wonderful thing when it does.

Creativity is love. It’s how we give back to the Source. It’s acknowledging the good in ourselves and offering it in the physical dimension. It’s love, pure and simple.

Every day that ticks by is one you don’t get back. Make today count. Go create.

Top 10.

Gearing up for Father’s Day? I came across these top ten gifts for the dads in our lives.

No.10 Grilling tools
No.9 Alcohol
No.8 Fishing gear
No.7 A set of golf clubs
No.6 Leather wallet
No.5 Wine
No.4 Driving gloves
No.3 Meat
No.2 Sports tickets
No.1 Landscaping services

While some are great gift ideas, some of the gifts listed above may not be applicable for the dads from where I am. I think a good book, a camera, and other gadgets, as well as humidors, will make a good father’s day gift, too.
