Trapped
Sometimes we feel trapped. We feel trapped in our jobs, trapped in a relationship, trapped in a friendship, trapped in a situation and cannot see the way out. But what if feeling trapped was only a state of mind? What if the way out was right in front of you and had always been there? What if freedom was as simple as making a different decision?
We are really good at getting stuck, for whatever reason, and now we are going to get great at breaking free. It's our time to unshackle ourselves from EVERYTHING that does not serve us, that does not bring us joy and that does not allow us to reach our fullest potential. Go ahead, feel around for the doorknob, it's there. It's just waiting for you to turn it, open the door and run!
This Moment
This moment is what counts right now. This very second ... and now this one!
It's easy to get swept up in the stress and the chaos this time of year. It's even easier to set unobtainable expectations and strive for perfection in every way whether it's finding the perfect gift, having the perfect outfit or making sure your house is perfect for your company.
As you get yourself crazed over almost everything, you overlook the current moment that you are in.
You miss out on the smiles from strangers.
You miss the hearing the laughter of the child in the store.
You miss the opportunity to dance to the music playing everywhere you go.
You miss seeing the acts of kindness happening all around you.
Don't miss anymore moments. Enjoy every single one you have today, and tomorrow, and the next day. For moments is all we truly have.
You Are
Sometimes you need to remind yourself of who you truly are. Not what others say about you and not what you want others to believe but who you have always been and will always be deep at the center of your soul.
- You are brilliant
- You are strong
- You are bold
- You are funny
- You are fragile
- You are talented
- You are creative
- You are trustworthy
- You are sarcastic
- You are fun
- You are smart
- You are fearless
- You are caring
But most of all ... you are love. Don't ever forget that. You are a walking billboard for love. How you love, who you love, what you love and how you are loved back. Always remember who you are...
