A warm hello from Oribel

Hello Friends,

Thank you for visiting my blog. If you are looking for inspiration and empowerment you’ve come to the right place.

Apart from articles I've written based on my own personal experiences I have included suggested affirmations, intentions, prayers, visualizations, meditations, ideologies and a whole lot more. I have personally benefited from them - I gained more self-confidence, learned about self-love, self-acceptance and self-respect, overcoming fears created by years of conditionings, tackled self-doubt, self-worth and self-esteem issues. And I’m learning to trust myself more and more each day.

I invite you to open heart and empty your mind and pick any subject that you are drawn to. Take only the information that resonates with you and leave the rest behind as they are here for others. You see, each of us have different lessons to learn in this life. Much of which is to overcome different types of fears - fear of being lonely, fear of rejection, fear of failure, well you're getting the picture. And, hence, we need different tools in our lives as we seek to discover ourselves and to turn our challenges into life lessons. With self-knowledge comes true power.

And always know that you have much to give the world by just being you....the authentic you that is. And also remember that when you reach a higher truth be prepared to let go of older ones that no longer serve you. That's how we evolve and expand.

Happy journeys,
Oribel

I'd like to share with you a song that never fails to uplift me. Simple in its message, and big in its dream. I believe we each can make a difference in this world. The change starts with you and it starts from inside of you. Let us live this dream knowing that we can make a difference. Love you.

One Prayer

This is a song to heal hurting hearts. It's called One Prayer.

Singer songwriter Karl Anthony wrote the One Prayer to offer an alternative to revenge. The sweet child in this video is Jeanne & Karl’s God child, Shivani.

I was moved when I heard it the first time and was able to locate the lyrics to the song which I've placed it directly below the video. May we offer a prayer to people who hate and may the hatred transmute to tolerance, then understanding and then acceptance.

I always believe that we hate what we fear what we don't understand.
So I offer a prayer - May all be loved, may all be blessed, may all feel peace.

One Prayer


Lyrics to One Prayer by Karl Anthony

If I had one prayer, I'd pray for people who hate
Maybe I'm out of my mind ...or deep in my faith
A man grows old ...when his soul's in pain
Only love can loosen that chain

But if I offer you grace, will it cause any change
And do I appear weak, if I calm my rage
I think of revenge, but will I become
The thing I despise, when a heart goes numb

I'll say a prayer, hoping it finds ...people who hate
I send it now, to heal the hearts ...of people who hate

If only one song ...could silence hate
And end all the war ...before its too late
If a cold mind ...could begin to feel
Then the fear in our world ...has a chance to heal

I'll say a prayer, knowing it finds ...people who hate
I send it now, to heal the hearts ...of people who hate
......pray for people who hate

All of our thoughts ...can set the stage
For the power of love ...is larger than rage
When we take revenge ...we will become
The hate we despise ...as our soul goes numb

I have One Prayer ...for the world to hear
It's a cry for mercy ...the last of our tears
Let hate dissolve ... let the past reveal
That love has shown us what is real

Prayer: Angels above, quiet the pain ...in people who hate

I'm sending One Prayer, to heal the hearts ...in people who hate
One prayer.....Pray!

Prayer: May all be loved, may all be blessed, may all feel peace....pray for people who hate

I’m sending Love, to people who hate
I must be out of my mind ...or deep in my faith

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

This is one of my all time favourite songs. In fact two of my favourite songs combined into one - What a Wonderful World (Louise Armstrong) and Somewhere Over the Rainbow. It's originally sung by Israel Kamakawiwo Ole. I found Jason Castro's version on YouTube and I'm sharing this with you here.

I can't help smiling and swaying my body whenever I sing this beautiful song. It's a song of gratitude for the wonderful gifts from Mother Nature. It's also about friendship and babies. It's also about daring to dream. This song never fails to uplift me. And it is also a reminder for us to savour each moment when we are in nature - walk in awe as you pass by magnificent trees with their canopy of leaves, look up into the blue sky with puffy white clouds that float by, look for the sun that plays hide and seek, feel the grass under your bare feet, take in the beauty of the flowers that bloom so bravely. Nature is not timid. Nature is vibrant, alive and abundant. That's the kind of life I am creating for myself.

I invite you to watch this music video from YouTube and you'll see and hear what I mean.

ENJOY and have a PERFECT DAY! Love, Oribel
