Wednesday Wonder

I consider myself to be an inquisitive kind of Chica. I find myself often wondering, pondering and questioning just about everything. I thought it would be a fun change of pace to share my Sassy Wonders with you every Wednesday and get your opinion. You are also welcome to send me your wonders to be featured on my blog.
Have you ever wondered what your gifts in life are? A few years back I recall reading in a book, that when you meet your maker, he will ask you two questions...the first question is spiritual; How did you treat my son?...The SECOND Question is What did you do with the gifts I gave you???
After reading the second question, I could not help but to wonder, WHAT ARE MY GIFTS? I instantly thought well, I am Fabulous and Sassy, LoL...are those my gifts? Then, I thought well maybe my ability to be awesome and fun(insert laugh here)...could those be my gifts? Aha, it's my charming quick wit personality, then I remembered I am not that funny, that was definitely not it.
After much soul searching, I came to the conclusion that my gift is the pure and honest desire to LOVE and BeLOVED!! This is what feeds my soul, motivates me to do better and be better!! I want to share a quote that confirmed the theory of my gift.
"People may not remember what you said or what you did, but they will remember how you made them feel"!!
I believe we all have many gifts but as the quote says in the first picture, The purpose of life is to discover your gift. The meaning of life is to give your gift away! BRILLIANT, wouldn't you agree?
I have since made it my goal to give my gift to all who will receive it, while leaving a positive impact on the world, making my mark in this Gorgeous Universe and letting it be known that:STAY BEAUTIFUL!!

WHAT IS YOUR GIFT????

Wild At Heart

Hello and Happy Monday to you! I hope that you have been well and the weekend was amazing for you!

Last week zipped by in a hot second. This Chica has been busy working on herself, looking for work and keeping up with family and friends

The weekend was awesome!! I love, love, love the weekends!!! As I may have mentioned before I am a die hard Chicago Cubs fan and was pleased that they swept their series at Milwaukee.

Friday was low key, some dinner/drinks, followed by watching the Chicago CUBS WIN!!

Saturday I attended a FABULOUS wedding and when I say Fabulous, I mean FABULOUS! The people seated at our table were amazing and so much fun...love them all!! I also met some new people, which I enjoyed immensely. One chica sticks out in my mind, she was gorgeous and darling. Her and I chatted for a bit, when she said to me "I am so glad to have met you...you are very interesting and "Wild At Heart". I am not sure if that was a compliment, I think she meant it as a compliment?

I LOVE to be surrounded by positive energy, good energy, love energy. I am an emotionally driven person and feel rejection when love is not reciprocated. One thing I have learned about myself is my emotional neediness is not a weakness!! I think that is what draws people to me. I can relate to the wonderful Audrey Hepburn, who was quoted to have said "I have an enormous need for affection and a terrible need to give it"!

I have a question for you...what do you think "Wild at Heart" could have meant, and just for my own curiosity, are you emotionally driven?

STAY BEAUTIFUL!!

Wednesday Wonder


Hello Sassy Readers!!! I wish you a wonderful Wednesday and hope you have all been doing well. This past week was interesting to say the least and the weekends, well never a dull moment for this Chica.

Last week I started Wonder Wednesday, I spend much time wondering about so many things that I thought, I should share them with you and get your opinion or thoughts on my wonders.

This week I wonder if people remember to thank those who are with them thru the good and bad times? It is so easy to thank people for a great night out, a nice dinner, a beautiful gift, but do we thank those who love us even when we are not lovable?

I feel that:

Remember to thank all those who show love to you and to tell them you appreciate them, make it a point to call, text, email or even instant message someone you know cares. It's lovely to hear or read unexpected words of kindness. Reach out and love someone today!!


STAY BEAUTIFUL!!

Morning Kisses

Another Gorgeous day for the Chicago land area! Last night I forgot to close my bedroom windows, surprisingly the night was cool but not cold and this morning was a delight!! I woke up to a semi warm light breeze, which slipped in my window and kissed me good morning .
The sun was rising and the birds were singing me a song...ahhh, it was a great way to greet the day! I could smell the glory of spring...I am not sure how to explain it except that it was delish!!


For those of you who live in warm climate areas this may sound kookey, to be ga- ga for these moments. Let me just say, we had a long, cold, rough winter and I welcome SPRING and look forward to SUMMER.


I often wonder why I live here(note to self: because Chicago is AWESOME), however I consider myself to be a Sun Goddess, I love warm temps, chilled cocktails, flip flops with pedicured tootsies, concerts in the park...just to name a few of my favorite things. I even went as far as to contemplate a move to TEXAS...but decided to think it thru and not make any major decisions just yet.
Okay, enough about me, how are you???

I wish you all a wonderful day, may you find beauty in your surroundings and within yourself...I send love and kisses to you!!

STAY BEAUTIFUL!!

Wednesday Wonder

Hello Sassy Readers!! Today, is a gorgeous day in the Chicagoland area, the weather is simply delish. The sun is shining, unseasonably warm for this time of year, forecasted to reach 80 degrees, yummy!!

Taking in a deep breathe, the air smells lovely and feels warm on my face. I am in love with this day!!

I spent some time thinking about what to write for you my darlings...I wondered and wondered and wondered...until I recalled just a tidbit of a poem I once read...titled; I wonder

I wonder if he thinks of me when a couple strolls along, I wonder if he yearns for me when he hears our favorite song, I wonder if he wishes for me when the night is long...I wish and wonder until my wonders run out, but most of all I am wondering what he is wondering about????

I am not sure why that poem came to mind, but it was what brought me to today's topic and Title, WEDNESDAY WONDER.

I tend to spend much time analyzing and wondering why people are the way they are or why they do the things they do...(myself included).

Thinking out of the box here for a moment, could it be that we are the way we are, due to what was going on cosmically at the exact moment we were born?

Is there such a thing as cosmic magic? I recently found this neat site cafeastrology.com, where you can get your natal birth chart..from this chart you get a better insight on what was going on cosmically at the time of your birth, which may be why we are the way we are.

Simply enter your first name, gender and time and date of birth and location and it gives you a complete readout...go on and try it, please do tell me what you think?

HAVE A FABULOUS WEDNESDAY!
STAY BEAUTIFUL!!

Be Awesome

Hello Sassy Readers!!!
How have you been...better yet, where have I been and what has this Sassy Chica been up to?
I have been growing, learning, and being awesome! How you ask??? With self determination and the help of a selected few loved ones...
I made it my mission this year to grow and take advantage of many tools so readily available, such as self-empowerment/self help books, online links and life counselors(I call them this, simply because are already in my circle of life-family,friends, they lovingly counsel and encourage me as I grow). The selected few whom I share this experience with are of all walks of life. A choice I made to purposefully be open to anything and everything which would
help me better understand myself.
By opening my mind I was able to breathe in change. And here is where I take control! Things at that new year, were a bit out of sort. I had no clue how much more out of sort they would become. I asked the Divine and Universe with everything I had for change; however I was not specific...and change came at me in droves!

My heart, mind and soul have since changed and I am proud to say for the better!! This came at the painful cost of being completely broken down. It felt as tho everything had to fall apart (or so it seemed), in order to see all of the pieces for what they were. I then had to make decisons to pick the ones up that I wanted to keep and discard those I no longer needed. This process lasted for months, it was both exhausting and painful.
While growing and changing, one of the lessons which helped me move forward was this: STAY BEAUTIFUL!!
Smooches,
Sassy Chica
