oh tell me who are you


hello 2023!

this is it.
this is the year i figure out who i am…
and who i want to be.
to imagine the life i want to live…
and go live it.

this year is all about me.
that’s right… i’m going to be selfish.
i’m going to do all the things i love and see what sticks…
hopefully it’s not chicken shit on the bottom of my boots…
but you never know…

i’m going to find out what really speaks to my heart.
i’m going to not care what anyone else thinks.
i’m going to love me.

i’m going to be happy.
i’m going to skip.
i’m going to be glad.
i’m going to be easy.
i’m going to count my blessings.
i’m going to look for reasons to feel good…
and i will find them.

and i will know my path by the fun of it.

i won’t let another minute go to waste

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
~Marianne Williamson

hello from the other side

where have i been and why do i have this handbasket?

well, i guess it all starts with grand plans…
i love them.
i love having them.
i love doing them…
ok… at least STARTING them.
and then i remember…
i really stink at planning.
and grand planning?
um… note to self.

anyhow, i am good at revamping…
and vamping.
which means i am good at adapting.
which means i am growing.
which really is the grandest plan of all.
note to self.
