And it's the weekend again!


Good morning family! Awake at 5 am with Elkita and Stevo to take the dogs out. Now 9 am and still half a sleep but the mates are making their effect.

The mate is always a great companion. Not only to wake me up but it’s the perfect excuse to go share a while with someone at their house or in a park. The mate connection. Hooray for the Guarani Indians that discovered this tree in the basins of the Parana, Paraguay and Uruguay rivers. Today mate is a cultural icon.

Mate time with the lady
 
Welcome to the weekend. In the recent past years the weekends have been good but strange days for me. Normally, the weeks days have all the structure and the pattern were we do our “work” and then the weekend comes around which gives us two days to do all the rest of the things that we wanted to do throughout the week. When Saturday begins, a wave of ideas regarding personal projects, fun times, rest and other things rush into my head creating an anxious and overwhelming feeling which blocks me from accomplishing anything, plus there is literally not enough time to accomplish everything in my mind and then the weekend finishes and there is a feeling of non-accomplishment, plus I am still tired and plus I have half assed many things. I realize all this is a reality but also a reality coming from my mind and also I am already working on personal projects throughout the week so I think my brain patterns are changing.

It is funny that the weekend arrived and I find myself writing about this because actually this weekend I am not feeling that anxious. Maybe it’s because I am writing everyday so that is my structure rolling into the weekend, or because I was able to do a lot of sports this week so my brain does not have that extra energy to ramble, or maybe it’s the Dumortierit the stone of patience that my mother in law just gave me that she brought from Italy. This stone has metaphysical properties of promoting accomplishments, positive attitude, courage, trust, harmony, and helps us cope with panic and fear, based on the Damali – Jewelry for the Soul website. Hmm interesting synchronicity. Things are moving along. Regarding the mind rambling on I have heard some interesting ideas on calming the mind which comes from Buddhism and also training the mind so the talk inside the head is inspiring instead of expiring. This also ties to the designing our environments to make us strive concept that we talked about last week, This last idea comes from another Unmistakable Creative podcast with Seth Godin. There is infinite knowledge and wisdom in these podcast.
 
Dumortierit stone and it's bag,

I trust the universe is leading all of you through the path of learning and action to fulfill your prophecy this weekend.

Happy weekend to all. We are heading to my mother in laws birthday celebration and then we are celebrating with friends at night. Let’s see what the universe actually has for us. Practice openness and acceptance and set intentions as the first step of you creation. Blessings to all!
