Just Breathe, soak in some sunshine & love yourself.

Sometimes we just need to sit in the sunshine, feel the warmth on our face, focus on the soft breath that flows in and out of the nose, and connect to our heart space. Let your tears flow, washing over the wounds left by those who acted from a place of love and concern, though they may not have known the hurt they caused. Release trying to show them how “good” you are. Some people can only see through their eyes what they know. Some people live from a place of fear, always being afraid something is going to pull them away from God. And that’s okay. That’s their journey, and you don’t have to prove yourself to them.

When you live from a place of love and begin to see yourself as God sees you, your authentic self will shine through. You will become radiant. If they still can’t see it, they never will. And that’s okay. You see it in yourself. You feel safe and secure within yourself. You know who you are. And that’s all that matters. I’m thankful for daily reminders that I don’t have to be perfect. I’m transforming daily. I’m also thankful for the beauty that I see when I look in the mirror that used to be so unseen by myself. Sure, there are more lines and wrinkles and grey hairs than there used to be, and things may be changing and shifting here and there, but the love I see in those eyes covers all of that. All I see is a beautiful creation that was put here to add a little love and sparkle to the world. That’s my goal today, just to add a little love and sparkle.
