Today and everyday – Believe in yourSelf.
When you look in a mirror.. take a good look at the “person” looking back at you. A few times now I’ve not really recognized the woman who gives me a startled look, when I glance her in passing by the bathroom mirror that I can’t ignore.
From a closet size bathroom (in my previous home) to the ballroom size one I have now… it has been an adjustment. I think that in the past, I seldom if ever really looked at or in a mirror unless I wanted to check something…ie. my hair before leaving the house…. even then, it has not been a priority.
My sister and I have had belly laugh chuckles.. because we’ve ( I won’t say which of us) has arrived at a choir practice to have a choir mate quietly give us a whisper… )
Yesterday I woke to a sound of continuous knocking on my door, I was horrified to find out that it was after nine, I am usually up and out of the door by 7:00-7:30 ………. do you know what I did? Something I’ve never done ..ever. I answered the door and promptly went back to bed. AND … I gave myself permission to stay in and not go out at all .. all day!!!! in fact, except to get up to eat and check my messages.. I spent most of the day.. “in bed”. Dearest friends .. that was a first…. not because I didn’t feel well, or ached anywhere, no.. I simply wanted to sleep.. so I did. Wow.. is this a sign of “maturity”…
Can it be true.. I actually had a day of doing “nothing” except what I felt like doing…….Wow.. double wowzoooooh earth shattering isn’t it.
