My joy comes from finally learning to love myself; from realizing that the only acceptance I need is from myself and those who love me. I have a wonderful family who loves me, friends who are always there for me and a love that I never thought I would never find but hy found me and that love is giving me an extra push that I never had before ~ a push to be a better person and to love myself no matter what

This conversation:
Me: I can't handle so many social obligations in a row; may I back out of the middle one please? I'll understand if you want to go alone. I'm anxious and I really want to be at my best for your party because that one is the most important. Him: Of course - we can do something where it's just us that weekend, if you want. And please don’t worry too much about my party... if you want to stand quietly in the torchlight with a drink in hand looking cute, I’m still glad that you’re there. And I'm always very happy and incredibly grateful to be there, with you. |

Being privileged to listen while a master story teller practice her craft...
The joy in her voice, the smile on her face... the animation in her entire body She simply glowed with life... Now, if I only spoke two year old, I would have a clue as to what story she was telling me... Grin...

Letting go brought me joy today... letting go of my long, thick curly hair...making the decision to CHOP it off, almost as short as Blade's. I also let go of the feeling that "long hair makes me beautiful" or "long hair is more attractive" and the feeling of having to hide my facial features behind thick, fuzzy locks of curls. I let go of those feelings for many reasons. And I actually LOVED what it looked like afterwards. It isn't what's on the outside that makes me beautiful. My appearance does not make me who I am.
I finally let go for health reasons, for ease of care, the southern heat and humidity and to let go of things that pull my self-esteem down further. I only wish my hair had been 'healthy enough' to give to Locks-of-Love.... but I'm sure that no one could have done anything with that fuzzy, brittle mess. Now... no more pony tails on bad hair days!! and trust me, I've had "Pippy Long Stocking" mixed with Carrot Top kind of days!! |

Getting back into the swing of things this morning...
I work from home and I love being able to have such a flexible and liberal schedule...it's something I didn't think would work for me, but now I embrace it, knowing how many would love that and can't...I'm sorry for that...it hasn't been easy, but it is what it is... Got my praise music on and am jamming along and having a great time pumping out the things I need... Even my printer made me laugh today...I was ready to print and I troubleshot this thing for over an hour and a half only to find that I hadn't plugged it into my laptop...duh! I laughed at myself for being such a dufus! My friend was on the phone on his way home from work and cracked up too, and I laughed even more 'cuz he thought it was funny. (I like to act like these things do not happen to me--ha! If you only knew!) It made my heart joyful to hear him laugh like that. Together...it was sweet. I don't know why but today is full of joy and hope and love. I am amazed how blessed I really am and how strong I am...that brings me even more joy. God is soooo good to me... To know that there are things I can walk away from because I am strong enough to say no....and that I am soft enough to say yes to some things because of that same strength...knowing it is my choice and making the right ones, bringing forth the blessings that belong to me, receiving them, sharing them...THAT brings me much unending, overflowing joy...today and everyday.

The love and support of new found friends and long time friends. A new one just called to assure me, even though she lives 3 hours away, that she's supportive of anything I need...and when I get back to the office, I can still stay with her instead of hotels. She even promised to help me fight the employer if I need to appeal their decision on Accommodations and reinstatement. She was the one that took me to the hospital from work and never left my side, then cared for me several days after. Her affection and compassion touches me and lets me know I'm not alone.
Blade and his parents have stood beside me though all this... I am eternally grateful for everyone's kind support and prayers. He even went out late last night to get me lemonade and english muffins because I hadn't ate anything. Then he got attacked by my puppies when he dropped it off. A local friend, who's had multiple back surgeries, has been kind and generous, and supportive...giving me extra advice about what I need my doctor to do...and getting me out of the house for a delightful trip to Gaffney. Ryobi has given me bounds of cheer, support and endless encouragement and stands behind me.....he keeps me in check when I want to ring someone's neck for being a jerk...he keeps me humble and level headed....even though we can't stay in touch very often, I know we are there for each other and continue to be eachother's Rock when we need. And my BEST BEST Friend, living 8 hours away, has been my rock and my sounding board. We love each other unconditionally. And she insists I have a place to live with her if it comes to that. Countless other friends have given me joy and made me blessed. Life would not be the same without good friends. |
