I've realized that...
*It's time to stop hoping and waiting for something to change or for happiness, safety and security to come galloping over the next horizon.
* That I am not perfect and that not everyone will always love, appreciate or approve of me or what I am... and that's OK. (They are entitled to their own views and opinions).
*People don't always say what they mean or mean what they say and that not everyone will always be there for me.
*The way I view myself, and the world around me, is as a result of all the messages and opinions that have been ingrained into me psyche. And I have begun to sift through all the crap I've been fed about how I should behave, how I should look, how much I should weigh, what I should wear, where I should shop, what I should do for a living, who I should marry, what I should expect of a marriage, the importance of having and raising children or what I owe my parents.
*It's time I open up to new worlds and different points of view and I have been reassessing and redefining who I am and what I really stand for.
*Principles such as honesty and integrity are not the outdated ideals of a by gone era but the mortar that holds together the foundation upon which you must build a life.
*Negative feelings such as anger, envy and resentment must be understood and redirected or they will suffocate life and poison the universe.
