...when our hearts are full we need much less

  • Why the Hope?

    The defining moment in my life that shifted the way I was thinking...and brought me to ubuntu.

  • Who am I?

    Great question. Tough to answer.

  • What I do

    In the sense of living and breathing and working and playing.

    Life is hard. Isn't that what they always say? It's been a bit of a whirlwind for me lately, centered a lot around the people and things I love. I've learned a lot of lessons in the past couple of weeks, about who to trust and how to proceed in relationships with integrity. I've learned that I am NOT invincible like I possibly thought I was...right Aerin! I learned that the people you need most will always be there when you need them. I feel rejuvenated, inspired, and full of hope that love exists in so many ways in this world and we will keep receiving the experiences that we need to, in order to one day be where we truly need to be. Once you accept that, things like this trip become so much more important and forgiveness to others becomes so much easier!

    Regardless of what happens, even when it really, really sucks, I do know that you can never lose faith in people. You always have to forgive, and keep proceeding with love. It's hard to do, but when you do, your heart feels different and life becomes richer and easier. I also know after something hard happens, you have to forget for awhile, but it doesn't mean that you won't have those memories later when it's easier.

    So, in light of all that, it's really important that we try to learn from all of our experiences. The Universe will continue sending you the same challenges until we've learned our lessons. We have to understand that discomfort is the universe helping us learn these lessons, and all we need to take from it is to accept that it's about our growth, not the other person or situation.

    Deep thoughts on a Monday morning...happy growing!
