I found a great little snippet of information from an aspiring new author Tonya Perkins about living your dreams . I love the quote that she starts out with ” We all have to grow into all of the dreams that we have “ so don’t give up five minutes before the miracle is delivered!
In order to learn to grow into your dreams you must start by :
- Learning to receive your good – don’t block blessings by thinking that you are not good enough to receive them – Just say THANK YOU when something good happens.
- Look at cause and effect – take a look at what is working in your life and take steps to make changes to the things that are not working .
- Learn from you failures – successful people in life learn and benefit from their failures
I woke up on my birthday 41st birthday May 2006 literally a different person . Who had I been in the past ? Who is this new person? Where had she been hiding all of my life ? I must be going through a mid life crisis . I feel alive, hip , happy ,satisfied with somethings, dissatisfied with a few , hip , happy , alive , rejuvenated I must be going through some type of temporary mental strain . I know it is burn out , must be stress related.
Suddenly , I don’t care what people think about me . Away with tradition and with what people think out to be . What is that sound that I hear ? Hip Hop – what I love it , I want to dance , sing , laugh out loud . Love nd to be loved , I want people around , but only fun, happy people that feel the same way that I do . No sticks in the mud allowed. I can be who I want , do what I want , dress fabulously , laugh loudly !
Whoa- I know I am going through some sort of crisis. New hair cut .. sassy new wardrobe , no inhibitions.
No longer judgemental , accepting . Don’t understand – but loving it . Wow 41 is wonderful . I will only be this new person a few months , then I will go back to being myself. I am sure that it is just a phase. Myspace ? Oh that is for teenagers. What there are adults on this site .. what ? New people , you mean other people are experiencing this awakening ? I wanna dance ! I am dancing , smiling , laughing and loving.
I can’t believe New Years 2007 is here , and that new woman is still taking over my mind , body , and spirit . Guess she was here to stay for a while . Must not be a phase like I originally thought . Must be more of a Transition. I love her! She is less stressed . Takes life as it comes and roles with the punches ! and my Lord the goals that this new person sets for herself , unbelievable . She is me.
Welcome to Transitions 2007 – I welcome you comments ideas and posts about the changes that have and while take place in your lives . I recently started a Women’s discussion group called Transitions 2007 , our first meeting is scheduled for the 1st week in February 2007. I welcome any comments and ideas about discussion topics for women like myself who are going through Transitions of different types and need support on how to cope.
