Opening Myself Up To
The Possibilities,
The Opportunities,
The Surprises
I have sounded like a broken record lately with saying, “I can’t . . .”! I feed on my fear, especially the unknowns and the major changes. I focus on being lost, dazed and confused and use it as an excuse too. Sometimes the hurt, the anger and the pain is the only thing I can see and think about!
I am learning to take each day as a new day and as a gift to just be in it! I am becoming more mindful and aware of what is going on with me internally and externally. I am working on being grateful, appreciative and complimentary to myself and to other people. I am hoping, wishing and dreaming for what I love and what I love to do and most of all what I want in my life!
Growing . . . Giving . . . Engaging . . .
I am engaging and connecting with my whole being! I am listening to myself, taking time for myself and taking care of my needs. I am following my heart by having faith, believing and trusting in myself. I am going with my gut versus my mind on certain things. I am seeking out and soaking up . . . happiness and healthiness, love and joy, smile and shine . . . !
I am being true to who I am! That is so important and matters on so many levels in living my life. I remind myself there is at least two sides to every story! I have to put the ego and the attitude away or at least check it. I have to be willing to change my perspective because not everything is black and white or easy or hard!
Being . . . Doing . . . Living . . .
I am accepting of my whole being! I am loving my body again and getting more comfortable in my skin too. I focus on nurturing and nourishing my whole being! I am such a better person in doing that and want to share myself with other people.
I am learning to open my heart up and let my guard down to let myself and other people into my world! Love, kindness and compassion. Giving, sharing and receiving. It is all pretty amazing and makes me feel good, positive and happy!
The most eye opening moment is that I do have everything I need!

I have so many moments when I say I can’t, you’re definitely not the only one. But I keep telling myself over and over again that I can. It’s a battle I wage all the time, and I hope eventually I win it.

Self forgiveness. I asked myself what I wanted most for Christmas, and after procuring a few material items that were wanted, not needed, I discovered that self forgiveness is what I want most. It doesn’t cost dollars, but it costs emotionally, physically, mentally, and yet, if I can give it to myself, the benefits will be so worth the effort.
Fondly,
Elizabeth
