Sunday feels different this week, no gearing up for work or the weekly anxiety that came with it. Slept late, felt great and up enjoying the day.
Spent most of this week listening to Brene Brown's various talks and interviews. There's something about her that makes her very easy to listen to and her words make sense. It's not technical talk that makes my eyes cross, it's very real "this is what it is!" and I appreciate that so much. I just ordered one of get books and cannot wait to get it in the mail soon.
Right now, I am really focused on being vulnerable. What I mean is that I am basking in the joy of being able to draw on my own strength and that of those around me. The ability to say at the end of my interaction "That made me feel raw, but it was beautiful" is becoming a daily event. Looking at the people in my life that love me and do things outside of their own boxes fuels me!
Writing, sharing and talking have been tools for me for a long while. Yet, this is the first time in my life that I have put real time and energy into making them a part of my (public) life. The vulnerability is something I didn't bargain for in doing this. I knew it would make me feel good, but I never thought it would make me grow. I never thought it would connect me more to the people I knew and to complete strangers. I didn't plan for the swelling of my heart and the steadying of my breath as I moved through this experience.
Now at a new experience that is sure to test my vulnerability I feel less afraid and more loved. More self love, more love to give out and the blessings of being loved. I encourage you to fall into your own vulnerability! Everything that scares you requires you to be vulnerable and loving passionately/"living whole heartedly" is not possible without this. Take a deep breath and go forward, every step is a goal achieved. You can do it one step at a time, believe in yourself and enjoy.
Thank you to my friend,R.S., for the bed! Sending so many well wishes and love your way on your new journey. To her dad and my two girls for helping me thus morning. I'm sure it felt like nothing, but it was powerful for me. To the people that help me daily, I love you! To the people that let me help them, thank you for trusting me with your stories and experiences.
Thank the people that help you, that allow you to be vulnerable without judgement and love you all the same. Never too much love out there! Hope you all have a great night! #BorrowSeason #Vulnerability #BeBrave
