Skyler Rain, photo from 2018

Today it was raining sooo hard. I could hear almost nothing over the pounding of rain on the roof. It’s great for sleep, meditation, being creative, painting, or writing…

Not great for phone calls or listening to anything but rain…
If you can really accept rainy season for what it is… it’s quite lovely, so green!

However it’s important to check out all times of the year before making a move here, and certainly before buying. If you heard my video with the singing frogs… Yes, that’s what that incredibly loud noise was… singing frogs, cantarana. Frogs are lovely, but maybe you don’t want to listen to them in your living room, or have them share your pool. Or, maybe ‘it will be challenging if you can’t do all the activities you love, due to the rain.

It’s quite often we see that after a full rainy season people have decided they can’t take another year. And that’s ok. If they decide this isn’t for them, then they are constantly recreating their lives to make life more in alignment with their own greater good… much better than denying what isn’t working for you. So, above all else, being honest with ourselves, and taking a hard look at yourself on how you may handle rainy season, would be some good introspection.

For me, rainy season here is definitely not worse than winter up north…at all. I like rainy season, as long as I don’t live somewhere with a high probability of flooding.

You are ‘the one’.

I just wrote a super long blog post...in it I talked about how I used to believe in other's before myself and I talked about the importance of believing in yourself and investing in yourself. I talked about resilience and about how I no longer believed that everyone...

What do you wish you did?

What have you always wanted to do ? Are you doing it? Do you wish your parents had ‘made you’ keep up lessons, or gotten you into such and such? Are you still parenting yourself?

Days go by…

I can feel it flying like a hand out the window as the cars go by..days go by…Remember to live a little each day…

I’m still here…

Do you have a plan? And does life ever go to plan?

We have this one life, right?  What are we doing with it? What am I doing with it? A perfectly unperfect lump of clay or dough to create what we will of it.  With so many factors and people to consider and simultaneously nothing and no one to consider.  Our life and...

Choose peace

Can you feel when someone is sending you positive vibes? What about negative ones? You have every right to prioritize your peace

Do we know what’s best?… Is he just not that into you?

I dive into the breadcrumbing and lover kernels we accept, eye opening advice from the movie ‘He’s just not that into you’

So, I attempted this Divi builder, and got pretty confused, so tail between my legs I thought maybe I was better off without using it, however, I really haven’t master that formating either…sorry readers…In the old formatting everytime I type a new paragraph I end up with new sizing and formatting which likely doesn’t make for an easy read, so I do want to enhance that…

To bake or not to bake, this is my question…

Balancing mom life, healthy living, life in Costa Rica…and deciding if baking is for me
