Helping others become even better versions of themselves
What if nothing mattered?
What if we choose to be only in this moment?
What if we choose to stop living in fear?
What if we choose to accept everything and everyone as it is and as they are?
What if we decided to just ignore our thoughts?
What if we decided just to be?
Maybe we could just do it and see what changes. We all stand on the edge of the diving board waiting to jump.
Jump…there’s nothing to lose and a life without shackles waiting for all of us who jump.
“It’s my party and I’ll cry if want to”…as the song goes, but what about us and our own lives?
The thing is our journey and how we see it is ours and ours alone to own, it isn’t up for others to decide if it is right or wrong. How we see our situation is all that matters. It is our story, now that doesn’t mean that we can not change it, but it is not for others to decide or re-write. It is our own party and we can cry if we want to.
How we feel is how we feel, and again not open for others to debate or want to alter that.
It’s our life and it is important to take complete ownership of it all and not allow others to shape it to what they believe it should be.
Being ourselves, as in our true authentic selves, requires us to be vulnerable, to brave enough to step up onto the stage and be in the spotlight of other people’s views, opinions, and often judgement.
