I heard a cry for help the other day, so I did what any caring person would do. I reached out and let someone know that I care. This is the response I received. Wow.. How gratifying
Hey Shannon!
I Just Wanted To Thank You For The Other Day .. It Helped So Much .. For The Longest Time Ive Let This Dark Cloud Stay Over My Head .. But What You Said To Me Made Me Realize That I Dont Have To Let It Remain There .. The Past Few Days Ive Been Telling Myself That I AM LOVE and That I AM LOVED .. I Even Look In The Mirror And Tell Myself Im Beautiful .. And Even Better I Believe It For Once .. Im Trying Harder Now Than I Ever Have .. Just Thank You! It Truly Does Mean Alot That You Took The Time To Write Me .. And I Am Very Greatful For Your Friendship (:♥
-K
It means so much to me to have this kind of feedback- It’s so wonderful to be having more and more of my life on purpose… join me won’t ya!! <3
I love Facebook
Facebook is what it is, and there are so many reasons to love it.
Why do you love Facebook?
1. Figuring out how to get people to respond to my updates took about a year.. now that I’ve finally got it, it’s much more enjoyable. It’s still fun to experiment with different, weird, mysterious status updates- but that is one of the most challenging things to me about Facebook.. getting a whole bunch of busy people engaged in what YOU are saying.
2. My mutual friends are getting upwards of 80-100 with quite a few people… umm, holy cow. Does that seem crazy to anyone else? Esp when I only have 600 friends on there. It’s pretty freakin powerful that’s what I know. Take it or leave it
3. The other day in my suggested friends was James Twyman and Marianne Williamson.. hahah- this is pretty joyous in my lil big world.
4. It’s so easy to share things and keep it moving.. success really just comes down to the pairs of eyeballs that see something. When enough eyeballs see it, it’s gonna gain momentum and SOMETHING will happen… hmmm something… that sounds suspicious.. I suggest we get more specific here.
(ohhh specific- I want you to get excited about a story I have about being specific. It involves mannequin heads)
5. You can connect people together before they even meet and they can see what kind of awesome stuff they are sharing. The coolest pics, videos, links, causes, social events, oh man… We can really scope out a person’s place in life if they allow it with this tool. I’m in the process of grooming my Facebook page to represent the best side of me. I mean, there is value to being real no doubt, but Facebook is a tool to put our best face forward. Yea, one more time- Facebook is a tool to put our best face forward” Bring your A game!!
6. You can go around to 30 of your friends pages in about 10 minutes and post this guy! ღ(｡◕‿◕｡)ღ all over the place!!!
Go put ღ(｡◕‿◕｡)ღ on a bunch of your friends FB pages! copy and paste, crtl c, ctrl v…..
I was just making a list of all the projects I am working on. This is insanity… what am I thinking?
Seriously….
1. Finding Shannon
2. Positive
3. Andrew Romanoff for US Senator
4. Goldenageofpeace.com
5. Census enumerator
6. Caregiver
7. Musical festivals this spring and summer
At least all of these things are at the forefront.. each one of those items on my life is going on in my life right now. hahaha seven streams of income. Thank you James Smith for your wise words on that one.
I love James Smith and the Smith Companies
Thank you spirit for my perfect eyesight! holler holler holler!!
I am winning LASIK surgery from Dr. Jon Dishler in Greenwood Village, CO!! Yes I am!
Hi!
So I went to the bar last night. The bank of all places… I’m a little eccentric for a neighborhood pub. Cuz see I don’t get wasted- but I say some pretty crazy stuff. Like last night I said to someone
What if “do I know you from somewhere?” actually means ” I am so super attracted to you that I want to just get ignore whatever else might be going on right now and satisfy this attraction?” Which apparently inspires people to talk!! Hahaha Oh well..
These days I feel like I am walking around in Heaven using my senses to feel out the right path and then I go back to earth and sometimes make.. how can I say this- err quite the impression heh heh.. Do you understand what I’m talking about?
Yesterday was a full spectrum day. Writing about the past always stirs up emotion, my friend is struggling and we need to pray for her. I sold 2 patches last night haha! Yes.
Anyways, the highlight of the night was when I said hi to a girl at the bar and I asked what her name was and she said Shannon.. so I asked her if she is a writer- she isn’t but she was on a scavenger hunt and she literally thought she was being video taped by my website people.. It was quite hilarious
This is us:
Shannon and Shannon!
We are finding Shannons.. The coolest Shannons in Denver.
I used to say that.. before I woke up to the power of words. That was before I watched “The Secret” in August of 2008 and was inspired to heal my vision with the law of attraction.
Now I say “I am so grateful for my perfect vision” And now I am about to win this contest for free LASIK surgery and I will have yet another powerful example of the Law of Attraction working it’s magic.. mmm hmmm!
I also used to use the word hate, that was before I realized I am way too sweet to be a hater.
Using the word hate for this recent contest I entered was really outside my character, but that’s the name of it… so it’s not me.. I had to call it that for the video, but if I could have chosen a different title it would be, “why glasses are not the best option for me and the reasons my life is going to be so much better after I win free LASIK surgery from Dr. Jon Dishler, the most reputable surgeon in Colorado for this procedure” Cuz.. how does my song go again.. My name is Shannon Buckley and I’m a peace maker, a mover and a shaker, never a hater. It’s cool though, I gotta win this contest (I already won actually.. right So guess what I HATE MY GLASSES!!! Sure!! YES HATE HATE HATE. If this is the word I have to use to have this dream of perfect vision materialize in reality, then call me a hater faker. ahhahah whatever, okay anyways.
I’d like to share with you now how I really feel about my glasses.. they are like a handicap! Seriously! And they don’t flatter me! My glasses create a glare or interfere with my beauty in photos. In some pictures I take, you can see I dont look through my glasses.. sometimes I look above them- perfectly good photos.. half way ruined. My glasses get in the way of a very active lifestyle. Snowboarding, swimming, biking, yoga, walking or running (especially if it rains or snows… nevermind going from outside to inside when the temperature varies significantly.. then they fog up.). Its a real problem.. Wearing my glasses for any of that athletic stuff always has a downfall!! and I finally became aware of how undesireable contacts were when I realized I was blinking about 100 times a minute. I took a guess that glasses are probably more attractive than a blinking complex so I decided the contacts were no longer an option. I’ve only stopped wearing my contacts for about a year now, but before I never wanted anyone to see me in my glasses.. I was like… humiliated. And finally, I really don’t see myself running around on stage with glasses on, you do realize I am working my way up to presenter status and I certainly don’t see my glasses on stage with me. hey, just sayin.
Glasses came into my life when I was 9, I got seven teeth pulled shortly after and entered into a 5 year period of braces, retainers and a bonus headgear… man was I miserable. I felt like a robot or something, the body that I had been enjoying so much all the sudden was under a major reconstruction project and I crawled way back inside, like I say in my video- “as soon as I felt uncomfortable with my outside appearance I shut all of my talents off” That’s super depressing.. don’t you think?.. wahh wahh wahh I’m sad. I realized when I was putting together my content for the video called “Why I hate my glasses” that I had literally disposed of all pictures I had of me wearing glasses when I was younger It’s quite sad actually because I know I got rid of them because I thought I was ugly and I didn’t want to look at myself and obviously, neither did anyone else. Looking back now I’m sure there were some cute pictures that are now gone, but I was so in it.. you know like in it, can’t see out of it, can’t get another perspective on it.. that I couldn’t appreciate them- and now they are gone forever. I would show you them if they were around. We could laugh (and cry) together.
It’s okay. I’m not mad. I love my life and your life and his and her life way too much to be mad now. Thank God. I think there are things I could be mad about- like- why was I put through this torture at such a young age when I hadn’t taken the time to develop enough self-love for it not to almost completely destroy me? The only answer I have for that right now is that I got to experience that pain so others don’t have to. Could you think of any other reason? And help me to understand what kind of application young people could actually accept instead of put up a wall against…. How does this translate into my work today?
Oh oh oh.. this is where it gets exciting… This network I’ve been building for about a year is super powerful, full of business owners and enterprenuers… (I’m really excited for where this is all going, I am loving thinking about how life is going to look in even one short year from now!) I attract powerful creators and we identify with one another and I love it! Except there is one problem. I’m an enterprenuer as well- now actually, that’s not a problem at all, that’s pretty much the coolest thing (and you realize that I competed on a state and national level with business plans when I was in high school, and that I started by own babysitting business when I was 12..) and then I was like… who in the world is Shannon Buckley? I’m going to pretend not to know-while I walk around on a misguided, uneffective powertrip– bragging about my talents but not actually doing anything about it. I used to feel so small.. trapped inside of this body that I couldn’t make work the way I wanted to… I was like this little soul.. help me!! Can anyone hear me out there? I am in here, I really care.. let me out- help me find a way to create what I have come here to make!!! So back to the facts here, my friends are the coolest, most talented.. and I keep attracting more and more powerful people!! yippee!! So what’s a girl to do when she’s bringing in powerful people around her, but she doesn’t need a job.. and what’s a girl to do when she knows the brightest people in the world and is also committed to bridging a couple of gaps? Wait- how can I expect you to have an answer to that when you don’t even know what gaps I can bridge?
Bridging the gap for the new world that I live in quite often where my creativity is rewarded and I am celebrated for my talents.. and a world where I am number one and I take care of myself first so I can care for others and I get to love myself so much that conflict disappears and so much love is shared that my existence becomes a celebration of gratitude, faith and miracles (I hold this goal for you as well)
Briding the gap between adolescene and adulthood so that a person is able to make wise decisions for themselves, not based on what they think other people want for them.. bridging that gap for young people so they don’t have to go to college with out knowing what they want to do with their lives while incuring a bunch of debt, sabotaging their relationships and possibly not respecting themselves.
Bridging the gap for young people who are bored and not being utilized or recognized for their actual potential and all of these business owners I know that are in need of more hands and feet on their team.
It’s so genuis. I am so thrilled about this potential. Maybe I”m being too obscure here- how am I going to do it? well let me put together a business plan and then we can meet to discuss what you need from me. Ya. Man.
Favorite fun language thing of the week- I am living on purpose. hahah… I am on purpose… why yes. Yes I am.. Sort of like saying I did that on purpose, except saying your entire existance is that way. Yes!!! Doesn’t it feel great!!?
We all want to find the Love of our Lives- the love that is so big, so all-encompassing that it completes us. Unfortunately, most relationships disappoint us. People don’t meet our expectations or they wind up having more emotional baggage than we are willing to deal with. So what do we do? Can we find the love that we desire, or are we destined to always be longing for someone/something else?
Relationships are complicated. One thing I have learned is that people that are looking to others for their happiness never find it.
Real love starts with the love of self. If you desire to have love in your life, you need to look to those places within yourself that need loving. Give yourself the loving acceptance and the forgiveness that you deserve. Start unpacking your emotional baggage: sort through what you need to understand about your emotional patterns. Figure out what your triggers are and understand why your previous relationships failed. Unless you begin to understand the common denominator (you) in your failed relationships, you will never be able to change the outcome going forward.
My problem is that I am a “fixer.” I go into relationships like I go into projects. I ignore who people are and focus on their “potential.” This causes two problems: First of all, it attracts me to broken people. Since I view them through rose-colored glasses, I am blinded to how toxic they can really be. Second of all, my energy becomes focused on helping them be “better,” or at least what my interpretation of “better” is. As you can imagine, this causes all sorts of problems. Most people really don’t want to change, and if they were “perfect” for me, they wouldn’t have to anyway. In addition, focusing all my energy in trying to make improvements in someone else takes my energy away from what I should be focusing on anyway: making improvements in my own life and exploring my own interests.
A person can never complete someone else by the sheer power of their love. As long as we look to another to complete us, we will be doomed to keep repeating the same patterns.
So what’s a person to do? Start by being comfortable being alone. Take the time to explore your own interests. Try to remember what really excited you when you were a child- it will often give you a sense of your true passions. Understand that unless you are coming into a relationship from a place of true “wholeness,” you will always be attracting those that are incomplete. Once you are truly comfortable with who you are and have the love of self that is necessary, you will attract other “whole” people into your life.
Make yourself the love of your life. Nurture your mind body and soul as you would a lover. You will find that you have far more to give in a relationship, and you will attract people into your life that will be better suited for you and able to give you the love that you desire.
A letter to a business associate. This is a look deep into the world of my creation. It’s powerful baby. Join me.. .join me… join me…..
you are the sweetest! i love love!
My next step is putting together curriculum or a schedule or whatever you want to call it. What my sessions look like, who is my market, how will I reach them, what I will be coaching people through.
Are you familiar with the DU area? I was thinking that would be a good spot for an office over there somewhere- close to Cherry Hill$ and the city.
When you walk around envisioning $100 bills all over the ground and you open your heart to love and acceptance that really great money making ideas flow and really awesome loving friends arrive to reflect your heart back to you. But wait, there’s more! We forgot the commitment to service- acceptance of the oneness- being bigger than the things that happen, increasing, overflowing amounts of self-love, taking care of the physical body (i could use some help with this mister..). I was thinking about that this morning as I was walking and that is a giant need in my life is to spend time healing my physical body. I have spent so much time on emotional, mental and spiritual but really not much on physical. So that’s my new intention is to have the needs of my physical healing taken care of.
Just so you know, I have about 100 things I am involved in right now and it’s getting better and better… My diligence in attending to multiple projects over a long period of time is beginning to pay off and I am seeing more flexibility and freedom in my schedule. My current projects are many and they include: I work for a company Eye of the Eagle productions- www.goldenageofpeace.com, I have a blog because I really like to write www.findingshannon.com, I am mentoring a young women and bringing her into my custom hoodie biz that i have been doing since 2006, I work with Ken and the Comfort Technology and I get my lifeforce products paid for… I am leaving Ken’s office at the end of next week- taking a leave of abscene (may be permanent) because we don’t work that well together on a daily basis and I am a mover and a shaker, a peace maker, never a hater. I like to hustle and jive and I’m not really feeling the 9 to 5. I have a lot of ways to create income and I believe it is time to work for my self. I believe I can do it and I have the products to make and sell that will support me in this. The most beautiful thing about this coaching idea that you had is it’s like an umbrella, I can help people with their physical needs with EMF harmonizing technology and great nutritional products because that stuff is just as important as the mental… it’s that grid- physical, mental, spiritual and emotional health- gotta have all four.
I have been giving a lot of thought to what me giving back looks like and have made numerous attempts to deliver my story in a concise manner that is applicable and interesting and the way I was able to compose that document yesterday was so easy that it actually surprised me. It just came out so perfectly and you are such a sweetie- this is just great.
Thanks for getting back to me,
I hope that this comes as easily to you as it is to me
<3
much love Shannon
Oh man! I don’t like facebook relationship statuses at all. Maybe it’s a sensitive topic for me or something… but I just think it’s stupid. Here I have a nice lil numbered list of the reasons casual daters need not use this option.
1. We are in relationships no matter what we are doing!! We are at all times having relationships with everything and everyone around us.
2. Changing/switching your relationship status on a regular basis doesn’t look very good/confidant/professional.
3. “I’m in a relationship and it’s complicated” is by far the worse choice and I ought to petition facebook to remove that option on account of all the poor people (millions) thinking it’s okay to have complicated relationships. (and then pollute my universe with such a statement! ugh!) I am truly sorry for you. Do you know that the reason we are here is for love? and guess what- love aint complicated.
4. It perpetuates drama!
5.The relationship status is PERFECT for married couples and perhaps those in long term relationships- but I personally don’t think it’s anyone’s bizness. Of course I’m in a relationship! I’m in about 100 a day! It’s just not a very appropriate description.
6. As a proponent of gratitude to our creator, healthy relationships and gigantorous amounts of self-love, I don’t see the facebook relationship status being in support of our expanding consciousness and connection with community and the divine. Do you?
7. If you know anything about my perspective on community, I believe we need to start working together as often as possible, sharing with our neighbors, growing our own food, not get pulled into the small family unit, rely on others and allow others to rely on us. The lifestlye that this creates bring forth so much love and cooperation that I can’t image wanting to switch around my status all the time (and for what I’d like to know).
<end rant>
My proposed solution to this is to wait until about 6 months of dating someone before you even touch your relationship status on social media. It will help you appear a little more grounded and self-confidant if that silly little heart isn’t popping up in my news feed with your picture next to it very often. You do realize you can remove it from your profile alltogether. So it doesn’t have to say single, and then I can rest easier and not attempt to set you up with some counseling resources.
So I saw a boutique with adorable frilly dresses outside during the beautiful day in Denver that feels like spring. I was on the bus- I ran off of it at the last minute and went into the boutique. It is called Peppermint http://www.peppermintdenver.com. The manager and I had some excellent conversation- we discussed the possibility of my new product line being there and then she asked if I had gone to school and I answered her yes, I have a degree in Behavioral Science and so she was attempting to get to the bottom of what it is that “I do”.. hehehe… hehe..
I shared with her that I do indeed work with what I went to school for a little bit by putting effort into The Comfort Technology and how yes, it can support people to have better interactions with eachother. And honestly, I think the reason I took that route during college was an attempt to diagnose myself. Now that I have the Comfort Technology which you can check out HERE, I haven’t THOUGHT about depression since it came into my life! I think I can successfully say that i found out what my problem was and it was not my fault AT ALL. It’s just that I’m sensitive to Electro-magnetic fields… like most of my generation and the lil ones after us. Nevermind the fact that actually ALL people are sensitive to it at some time in their life we just build up our hardness and get used to dealing with it over time and I’m not gonna say how people are dying because that’s why you watch the news isn’t it? To find out how people die? Yeah.. I’m not really interested in that so much- I’m far more interested in how people are LIVING.
As you know, I’m feeling alright about death.. I am. I am committed to expression during this grieving process and beyond and I’m really interested in inspiring you to live more. Truly.
So, are you curious what I am saying about ponds? I am too. I don’t really have the best words for it. Oh wait. Let’s create something different: I have THE BEST words for it. When I was explaining briefly to the woman at the boutique that the healthcare system and Murdoch and the mass media are attempting to push peoples beliefs into a corner and smother them with fear so they think they have to go into fear based medicine. And it’s bullshit. I’m tired of it.
But here is my truth, you can’t play both games! And here’s the kicker!! I can’t understand why you would want to! Living in gratitude and trust with faith is SO MUCH SWEETER. Mmmm it’s so sweet. As long as they keep telling cancer patients that it doesn’t matter what they eat I will continue to rage. And suing parents for not using their system.. heh.. yeah sweet. This system is so wrong and you can’t buy into what they are saying and then heal yourself. Do you understand this? It’s not possible.
So if you get diagnosed with a disease, I suggest you stay as far away from the hospital as you can. Start going to healers, look at your diet, eat lots and lots of veggies and natural foods!! Limit or get rid of meat! EWWW! get an EMF protection device, forgive yourself, connect with your neighbors and local community. There are so many other ways, don’t let fear take over. Cue Jack Canfield quote: Fear= False Evidence Appearing Real
Love you,
To your health and happiness <3 xoxoxox <3 xoxoxoxox <3

So guess what I HATE MY GLASSES!!! Sure!! YES HATE HATE HATE. If this is the word I have to use to have this dream of perfect vision materialize in reality, then call me a hater faker. ahhahah whatever, okay anyways.
It’s quite sad actually because I know I got rid of them because I thought I was ugly and I didn’t want to look at myself and obviously, neither did anyone else. Looking back now I’m sure there were some cute pictures that are now gone, but I was so in it.. you know like in it, can’t see out of it, can’t get another perspective on it.. that I couldn’t appreciate them- and now they are gone forever. I would show you them if they were around. We could laugh (and cry) together.
