There are a few things I want to say. I think they are important.
First, I just want to mention that if one lives their life outside “their box”they take a lot of hits–punches. And what I know for sure, what I feel good about is that I, for one, have been rolling with the punches. But while I roll, my stomach still hurts from the punch. Rolling doesn’t stop the initial hurt it just gets you away from the prolonged pain faster!
And speaking about taking hits, I have taken many on this next topic. I am blessed that I learned a valuable lesson a long time ago. It became apparent to me that I needed to celebrate myself and my life. If I didn’t do it, no one would. Women need to learn this. We have been programed to believe that celebrating oneself is wrong: conceited, selfish, narcissistic. Women are allowed to celebrate their “man” or partner and their children but not themselves. I take umbrage with this age-old, never talked about societal message. To celebrate oneself liberates one to celebrate the beauty in everyone.
So when people say I think I’m all that and more….well, yes I do, as a matter of fact. I am all that and more and proud of it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
