This is the space where the ConnectionROCKS’ Playground Answers come forward:

A Question has been asked:  Why a Playground?

And the Answer is given:  Why not?

Basics:  For the Fun of it!  A playground is where people go to play, laugh and have a great time!  When we play we express the energies of excitement, and we Smile a heck of a lot.  So WHY NOT have these kinds of Fun Feelings be a part of our everyday lives?

Way back when:  As a kid, I remember going to the park and playing on the playground as my mom and her friends sat and talked.  There were swings, a merry-go-round, teeter totters, slides and things to play with.  It was great place to run, play with my friends and other kids, build things in the sand, and of course laugh a lot.  Those times were about me and my time to play.Continue Reading

…The energized continuation, from part 1, of me Playing an Adult…

By stepping outside of what I was taught and into what feels better, I have begun to discover for myself what Happiness feels like more days than not…

Part 2:  This is the wonderful part of my story where I changed and Plugged In to the ‘Who-I-Truly-Am socket’:

Q:  What does one do when faced with the awareness’ and confusions about what to do with all that painful stuff in one’s life?  …  A: For me, I took the plunge and ventured out into the world of my all time desire; Having a Blast being an Adult while embracing Lifes’ natural flow of creating, and playing with it!

As I connected to this new daily adventure and followed its path, my life as I knew it started to crumble, things fell off my map and the peoples vanished.  The feelings and emotions that came with this shift were right up there with craziness!  But for me, I stayed with this flow, because I like crazy.  I meditated a lot, asked and listened, and then meditated and asked and listened…simply Knowing that it had to be perfect for me to Let Go and let go and let go…Continue Reading

Me Playing an Adult, the joy of the rollercoaster I’ve ridden along the way, and the Beauty that’s transpired, is the next phase to a simple and playful world being created.  By Bridging the Gap of the two worlds I was participating in, I am now feeling the differences between them and enjoying each new step I take.

Part 1:  I am starting with a fun and light-hearted story of me ‘plugging in to an oxymoron socket’, as I made the decision to become an early adult:

When I was young, I was known as the funny, silly, and tell-it-like-is girl.  This stayed with me through my childhood years.  I was all about finding ways to play in as many areas of my life as I could.  I did whatever it took to laugh and get others to laugh with me, even if this meant causing a little chaos to fill in areas.

Then, in my late teens I decided I wanted to become an adult.  I believed it was time, not thinking it may be earlier than I was aligned and ready for.  I used my sense of humor as a basis, while molding into a mature adult, and hoping to gain the respect I desired.

Knowing that I wanted some training in this area, I reached out and found the Adulthood game playing all around me.  I decided to sign up and join their game so I could participate with more experienced adults.

Once I was on their team, I was informed that in order to be accepted as an adult and be allowed to play with adult people, I needed to ‘grow up and stop being silly’.  They said that free spirits were not respected in this world and by expressing openly I wouldn’t be successful.  I took their advice about how life was meant to be and changed my position in my personal life to fit this new role.

Instead of simply learning from my own experiences, I believed them over me and did what ‘I was supposed to do’.  And as a result of this (wacky) change in my life, I’d inadvertently put my heartfelt dreams on a bookshelf to collect dust and be a remembrance of who ‘I used to be’.

Talk about walking away from who-I-really-am.  Wow!   What an amazing way to learn about life!

Years later and many obvious struggles in between, I started asking ‘What the Heck?’ to all of this pain going on.  And the clarity set in… This so called Adulthood game I was participating in was not fun for me, period!  It was like a mirage/façade/hoax.  In order to play this game I needed to be the complete opposite of my own beliefs and desires.  The main thing it created was a lot of unhappiness for me.

I figured out that the principles around this game were packed with cream filling, which were covering up the lies and deceptions (that I now call the oxymorons).  The rules were put together to protect the people and  have them be fully informed and warned about the so called ‘rough and tough world’, which contradicts what Life is truly about.  So I left this particular game…

Once I’d been away from this Adulthood game for a while, I saw that it isn’t a requirement to participate in this game when one becomes an Adult.  This game is man created and being an Adult is a natural way of progressing as a Human.  I Love this distinction!  This created the permission to be Free and flourish as Me! (and You too!)

Fun information: 

• Did you know there really are no solid rules about what an adult is supposed to Be like, or any other position as a Human? Only peoples’ perceptions of what should be… AND
• The Natural Growing Up Flow is: Connectivity, learning, experiencing and expanding oneself. 
  • Each individual does this with guidelines, guidance, and their unique way of living as Themselves.

Big benefits of me playing in this Adulthood game:

1. I found out what I wanted from experiencing what I didn’t want, Big Like.
2. I learned to accept the simple things, follow my guidance, and Appreciate the real wonders of life.  So cool!

“Can you remember who you were before the world told you who you should be? … Many of our stresses stem from judging ourselves and setting physical and material goals, instead of loving ourselves completely and unconditionally. When you love yourself and let life love you, you live in richness and fullness. When you accept all of yourself, you become whole and healed.”   — Louise Hay

Connectivity at it BEST!!!

Check out part 2 …Plug In to Happiness!  And see what happens for me now that I am Free to create what I want….

This is such an honor to write up and share…
