As I'm sitting outside the building checking into my flight, I am thinking about how nice this seminar was.
I feel re-energized and validated. At the end of the seminar last night, we did an affirmation exercise. Half of the class stood behind the other half who sat in chairs. We went around the room whispering affirmations to each in their ear. It was a pleasant experience. What was enlightening to me was how many were crying and shared that they have never in their lives heard that many positive things said about them before. I was amazed as I sat and listened to each one. I have been blessed to feel like this for my whole life. My parents brought us up in a loving home and affirmed our abilities throughout our developmental years. This gave me the voice inside myself to continue on my own. Then I found a wonderful man who continues this. And, as if I won the lottery, I have two wonderful kids where I receive this loving environment.
So I go home shedding the petty irritations and small issues that I have running over and over in my head. I am letting go of the frustrations and focusing on the fact that I have the life that many people dream about.
So as I go get ready to end this conference, I want to implore those of you reading this that - sure life isn't perfect. But you are good enough, you are strong enough and you are worth it.
