Sensual Power & Self Acceptance, Even at the Food Stamps Office

The Time Keeper ~ 106/365 Tavis Leaf GloverBy April Malone

Sensuality is not a skill, but a lifestyle living (tm). A moment of nothingness can become beautiful within its own simplicity. It’s the moment when you are truly feeling the flows of spirality fervor, cascading up and down like a kundalini snake. In that immediate moment, sitting on the phone with my sister, the wind engages me with a sensual touch on my naked shoulder and instantly I felt loved, warmth, happiness and joy all encompassing with perfect harmony.

This type of lifestyle should be a mandate for all livable, feminine breaths co-creating with the universe. It’s not about the elite education, privilege lifestyle gurus, and mentors or elaborate wardrobes, but the quality of just “being”.

Sensualists in Every Neighborhood

I lived in an area that is surrounded by unprivileged people just struggling to get ahead within this mundane society. Most likely, everyone is in the same congruent space, if you, like most is in this devastation of “unemployment” enforce title. These enforce title had a strong tumble effect on the whole economy, even some of the wealthiest people got a stench of this funky aroma. Countless people became exposed to different, alternative lifestyle like, food stamp, medicare, minimum wages, downsizing and budgeting their allowance as a systematic way to survive. I’m thankful for the assistance of the resources available to help support people, including myself, to transition to a better, desirable life.

~Bound by Troubled Thoughts~ 105/365Sometimes changes are good and needed to stimulate a positive shift and new reality. But also changes can be intimidating, with unforeseen circumstances that may frustrate some women in this unyielding crisis. How can women find relief within this “alternative life” to make the transition easier?

The “alternative lifestyle” doesn’t seem too sophisticated, huh? So, how can a woman still remain in her sensuality through all of these transitions?

Self Acceptance & Sensual Power

I’m glad you asked that question, my sensual sistahs. You have to remain in just in a place of “being”. You have to accept yourself right now no matter what the circumstances. The word “being” is the presence of your feelings and the power of your thoughts revealing your “true” self.

Our ultimate goals are to re-connect with our essential “BEING” and express our beauty and grace in this ordinary physical world moment by moment. To note that which is femininity is to take yourself everyday with full intent, to make healthy conscious decisions. Without the negatives, how can you truly transform without knowing the difference? It’s all about the decisions that will create valuable meanings for your personal development. I’m in there with you, sistahs.

~Masked by Tears~ 102/365Let me give you an example of my words in action, I had a scheduled appointment to go see my caseworker to continue my food stamp benefits. I really don’t like going down to the office. It’s not that I’m ashamed or embarrassed, but it’s the generated vibe. If every negative thought had a reality show to exploit the worst in people this would be the spot to film the show. You will have starring roles like bad attitude; neglected customer service; old, grumpy people; loud people; frustrated and horror stories that people will share, because you are cramped inside the waiting area… oh, did I mention hollering babies!!!

Well, since I’m practicing living sensually, I was in acceptance of the environment, remembering it is NOT my reality. Instead, I remained sensually engaged with my sensual inner-being. I walked with couth, style and sophistication. I didn’t have “stylized” clothes on, just the attitudinal flair of femininity.

Sensual Power & Generosity of Feminine Spirit

A pleasant look or a smile works wonder with a positive attitude. Through some minor adjustment, it really doesn’t take much to affect the people around you; I notice a different vibe from people. They become more settled, relaxed and calm; smiles are justified quite easily, too. The customer service representative is more likely to be more favorable towards you. You may even get longer glares from men, or find them exchanging pleasantries with you in a dignified manner. People are in wonderment, but somewhat in intrigue with your charming behavior. Even babies, become even happier.

~Tender Thoughts of Being Ravished~You see, how I created my own reality in a food stamp office? This little attitude adjustment is good for any place you go that isn’t that pleasurable. Women are the fragrance of a beautiful, blooming flower. We are the inspirational and motivators to assist in personal development.

Let’s live up to our potential, even in the food stamp office.

We are the colorful joy, bliss and happiness that can bring a little sunshine, even in the most unpleasurable places. We are the insightful embodiment to coded answers. Sensuality is the luxury, spectacle and pleasure that draws people in captivation to open up their own sensual quarters. Sensuality is our portal to humanity. Sensuality should be mandated.

I’m a sensual sistah, so I approved this message. April Malone
