I Don’t Just Want To Express… I Want To Serve

What has the purpose behind all of this meant to of meant? Of course it was to express but after realising the effect and changes your words and actions can have on people you know, people who you have never met was incredible to me, so my role is to serve. (Any great success story is when people are serving for the greater good of others, not through being selfish)

I struggled to figure out my ‘niche’ for releasing content that I was passionate about and what I intended to share with the world but I know exactly what it was meant to be along… I want to serve, help, inspire, drive and motivate anyone out there who wants to hear my own personal journey and life lessons along the way.

I’ve always aimed to give the most honest and best advice to friends, family and acquaintances but I have recently realised that I never take my own advice. It’s a question I asked myself time and time again, how can anyone give all this great and strong willed advice but not put it into practice themselves ??

The truth is – I have no idea why as beings we do this but again i believe that it all stems from anxiety and an easier said than done motion. It’s no wander we always say ‘I should take my own advice’ or ‘Why don’t I ever take my own advice??’. Maybe if we actually start looking at it this way and if we do give advice out then we always aim to make it our mission to put it into practice. Sounds easy?? No definitely not easy but it’s possible.

I believe that everyone has there path written out but it’s your choice to change the steps that lead down the path chosen for you. So take the control and serve people and yourself!

What does your home say about you?…Our Home’s Speak Wonders and Have Great Meaning…

If I am entirely honest with my readers, I  have not always been fascinated with this topic (or maybe subconsciously I have??) but from finding this new and intimate way of sharing with the world through blogging has allowed me to explore and research new learnings. 

Have you ever walked into somebody’s house and been intrigued by the smallest details, from the pictures on the walls, colours and palettes to the way the furniture is laid out? 

I started to venture out and open my mind to the wholesome fact that every distinct position we choose to place a flower, gift and accessory must have a hidden meaning behind who we are subconsciously. 

Are these objects we choose to lay out or the colours we use in our paintings and walls for our eyes only or is it way of expressing ourselves further to the guests who visit our space? 

So what are my findings through my own personal research…

 “Books on display are considered ‘identity claims’, and they say a lot about who we are as a person.”

“Liberal’s homes are far more likely to feature books, maps and art, and to be less neat and organised.”

This area really fascinated me…there are a number of different books visible which I believe have greater meaning behind them than we think. Take a look at the reoccurring pattern here… they all surround similar topics – inspiration, motivation, self-love and feminism. I am sure you can already predict and use your imagination to the type of person who lives here. 

The books are not just placed without thought, maybe subconsciously but definitely not without thought. Take a look at the pictures in the second image – Inspirational Women (Spice Girls) directly located next to the books. Do you see the correlation? 

“A more chaotic, dishevelled space where things appear to be thrown around supports someone who is more spontaneous and ‘go with the flow’.”

I love this area as it really does coincide greatly with the quote above, allowing you to take a deep look into someone’s way of thinking, behavioural patterns and lifestyle overall. There is only a minuscule area shown that is slightly organised, the rest…well let’s just say a pattern of a free person. 

“Items such as flowers, oil lamps and scented candles are known as ‘thought or feeling regulators.’ They are objects that change the way we want to feel in a room.”

I love this meaning, I have come across a lot  of homes with scented candles scattered across different rooms so maybe this could be a stage in a home-owner’s exterior life who wants to start to change specific aspects of their life – relationships, friendships, work, health etc. They are all intending to regulate their feelings and presence to work towards a goal. 

Question: What does your room say about you? Do you have your own ideas and psychology to different areas of meaning?
