The Abundance Jar

I have an abundance jar and I started it when I got laid off my job in the Fall.  Being a musician is so lovely and wonderful but when it comes to reality, I have to generate more income to pay my bills.  My slogan for musicians is, we may not be rich in money but we are rich in experiences.

The latter is way more important to me than money.  I have such fond memories of all our travels and adventures.  The friends that we have met along the way have enriched my life..  Money just cannot buy these adventures.   I want to continue spreading my gift to the people, I feel like this is my responsibilty as an ambassador of peace and love through my music.

Luckily now I have found a nice part time, flexible job.  The keyword here is flexible.   Gotta love it.   I started my abundance jar and repatterned the way I think about money.  I just don’t stress about it anymore.  God provides.  The universe doesn’t let you down when you just put out the good vibes, because you will get it back in return. 

Here I am with my decorated abundance jar, I always keep something in it.  Even if its a couple of quarters or a few dollars in it,  I never allow my jar to be empty.  Abundance is my theme here in my life and in this here Abundance jar.  I even enjoy putting notes in there to self with positive affirmations.  I am not monetarily wealthy by any stretch of the imagination but I get to travel, play music, eat healthy foods and I save up for items that I really want.photo-1931

I hope it has inspired you to start your own abundance jar. I know that we are going through tough economic times, but we deserve to still have Abundance baby.

Pecans and Abundance

What an amazing day here in Asheville.  It is so sunny and warm.  I hope that you are having a lovely day as well.  Happy Friday everyone…………

Before I left South Georgia, I walked around a grove of pecan trees and took some fun photos and picked up a few pecans.

 Also that day I discovered a wonderful artist named Jess Gonacha.  She has a lovely blog called Pecannoot.  Pecannoot is a word derived from Pecans. Her blog is all about abundance, which happens to be my word of the year.  The tagline for her blog is “Make Every Day Abundant” So, I think this is so wonderful and fitting for my life.  It’s really kind of like a quinkadink (coincidence) or fate that I discovered her.   I just bought this print from her etsy shop.

Jamaican Dreaming and Birthday Wishes

 

Happy New Years Yall

Happy New Years Yall

The New Year is upon us.  We only have 2 more days of 2008.  I just cannot believe we are heading into 2009.  Wow!!!  What does this year have in store for me.  I already picked out my word for the year and that is ABUNDANCE baby.  Bring it on!!!  Abundance of joy, love, fun, food, moolah, bliss, travel, the whole yards.  One other thing I am giving myself this year is a present to just allow myself to hang in the present.  Not worry and fret about my future too much and certainly not dig myself into a depression about the shoulda couldas of the past.  So folks lets drop in the present and have some tea.  Of course after I say all this hanging in the present stuff, I sure cannot wait to go to Jamaica.  I leave in 26 days.

Beautiful Jamaica

Beautiful Jamaica

 I dream of the cliffs of Negril, the pretty blue skies, the reggae music, Red Stripe Beers, Blue Mountain Coffee and the sparkling Carribean Sea.  Goodness me, I will just have to wait.
