"Earth, WHAT A TRIP!"



why am i so positive ...

how do i know...

and, if i am wrong, .... then ?

i think its in

my 'construction' in how i'm made
the slightest 'wind chime' kind of guidance i hear if i listen

its evidence is in its opposites
no faith = no foundation

you and i are being tested, of that i'm sure
if we can't see it, will we believe it? STILL

its remarkably beautiful
this process, its 'isms'

facinating

not to be harsh, but i do think we will eventually full knowningly say....

"Earth, WHAT A TRIP!"

what am i going to do about HER?



She worries me.

The last time I un "layered" m'sef' I found her.

She was not very patient with her husband. She was pretty selfish. She spent too much time away from home. She did a lot of "I am going to reward myself" shopping. She got pretty full of herself. She eventually failed entirely, and quickly "covered" up again.

I remember the moment standing in front of the freezer......self sabtoge. Confused, but totally intentional.

There is an aspect of this process I need to own fully, not just give verbal homage to.

Question d'jour. "What am I afraid of exactly?"

Guesses????????????

Is there something everyone else sees but me?

You know how that is true for most of us, the obvious answer only the person can't see...

(She should......spend less time focused on her house and more focused on her kids.....or....she should stop the self esteem train right there....or......if she would just stand up for herself......or......if she would just relax and count her blessings for hecks sakes!!!!......or just get over herself and fold the laundry already.....or let go of "worldly desires",.....or be honest with herself.....)

What aren't you telling me? Seriously. Give it a go, I'm ready :)

Don't make me call you a "chicken"

Cause' if I see you 'stopped by' and didn't comment I totally will!

Try me :)

30 lbs labeled



I've now lost over 30 pounds.

AND

I'm different.

I've changed.

NOT JUST THE WAY I LOOK...

My habits are different. My desires are different. My perception of self has shifted.

Food that used to make me crazy has lost its power over me. I want to go running, not because I'm 'suppose' to. I run because I WANT TO. I love it.

I want to eat clean because I feel better when I do. I prefer it now.

I like to lift weights because I feel stronger. I love feeling stronger.

I enjoy drinking all the water because it refreshes me.

I think I finally get it. Its not at all about how I look, its about how I feel instead.

I feel so good right now.

I'm still 'battling' with my dukes up.

Its not over yet, but I am getting there.

This time I feel like I have really "LOST" the 30 pounds because I'm more confident than ever that I'll never "FIND" them again.
