Hoping 2021 Continues To Blissfully Transcend Us All
Good SUNDAY day and end of the first full week of 2021 to my beautiful SUNSHINE SOULS! All you people…you know who you are! The people who are “hope-aholics”and have that special twinkle in their eye! Happy New Year 2021 and Happy New Year to Hopeservations! It was January 1, 2018 that Hopeservations and “A Place to Find Hope Everyday” entered the world! For me “Hopeservations” has been a part of my world for a lifetime despite it technically still being a toddler! So I want to say, “Thank you today and everyday!” because any day you take the few minutes to read what I’ve written – is a special…

How I Fell in Love at 50!
“Life finds its purpose and fulfillment in the expansion of happiness” – Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Hey beautiful soul, it’s me – Hope and I’m sending you all my love and blessings on this gorgeous morning as you hopefully read along… So guess what…I certainly was not looking and as a result, I never expected I would fall in love again. I truly didn’t see it coming. I had my sunrises, long walks, my Transcendental Meditation, reading my daily word and so many of my own studies & practices that brought me joy, balance and fulfillment. What more could I possibly need in my self development? I was happy and hopeful…only…

Find Your Place of Balance!
“Finding balance is the key in our life” – Jan Jansen So it’s a big hello from my being to yours as I sit by the edge of the ocean marveling at life and thinking about the many different sides of Hope that make me, ME! We all have so many different sides to ourselves! All these variations and nuances that depending on the role in the moment, come to play. Some we embrace more readily and others we navigate carefully, some we happily show off and other bits we may not feel so great about. We hear it all the time…how being a mom, wife, friend, professional, home maker,…

Follow your Path!
Happiest of Days my sweetest sunshines! Last weekend, I took one of my many quick Florida day trips to get away. I love to get out, with no set destination in mind, just to see more of my state’s quirky and beautiful coastal regions, and enjoy all the nature Florida has to offer! Bonus…it usually helps me get my mind aligned and back on track, especially after a particularly intense week. So I took off to Cocoa with the intent of stopping in some of the surrounding coastal communities. It was a slow meandering drive – enjoying the scenic views, listening to loads of music, and little stops here and…

Patience is Part of the Process
Never hate if something causes you to “fall off course.” Accept it and continue to calmly proceed ahead… As we mature, we learn how to patiently pursue our goals and hold on to our dreams. Patience teaches us how to be excited and joyful, not reckless. Patience teaches us acceptance. Patience allows us to see our plan, while also enjoying and navigating the journey, with all its twists and turns. No matter how wonderful, beautiful, unsettling or upsetting those twists and turns may seem, especially as we are in the moment. It may not be until long afterwards that we can look back and understand the bigger picture. Yet we…

Fly and Be Free!
Good morning to all you beautiful souls who I adore! I am so grateful for another amazing day, just like all the days before today and so, I wrote this one just for you! The other day, I was doing my normal…walking the beach, when I came upon a set of pilings I always walk past. As I got closer, I noticed five seagulls. One per pole and perched in nearly perfect alignment, while facing into the wind. At first I took pictures of them from behind. They were like little sentries, facing south, keeping intent watch. Not moving in any direction, as if caught in a trance. I cautiously…

Intensely Intentional
Good morning and Happy new day sweetest Sunshines! Guess what people?!? It is time to start living life intensely and with intention! Every single day is a wonderful opportunity for a celebration of your individuality and it is a unique privilege to be given this opportunity with each new day! Just like January 1st, New Year’s Day, you can treat every day throughout the year as a mini New Year’s Day! Every year on that one special day, we set resolutions, or as I call them, “heartfelt intentions.” Only shouldn’t every day be set with intention?! Every morning when you wake, that is your decision to make! In doing so,…
