Feeling It from Within
Awesome reminders come in all shapes and sizes, different venues, and when you least expect them. To explain...Today I was at the gym, pedaling away on one of the bikes when I picked up a tabloid-y type magazine. OK, so what's the big deal about that? Well, very rarely do I pick up a tabloid much less read it, but for some reason today I felt compelled.
Amongst the glossy ads, the who's dating, marrying, and divorcing who, was a great article about weight loss written by one of my favorite actresses, Megan Mullally, (Karen from Will & Grace).
Rather than spotlight her eating regime, her workout habits, or the supplements she uses, she shared an important message that she attributes to achieving her ideal body... In short, you gotta be OK with you, with what's on the inside. You see if you are not OK with WHO you are at your core, the external stuff is not going to matter a jot! She has not had plastic surgery, she no longer starves herself, nor works out for hours and hours at the gym. She loves who she is from the inside out, curves and all.(Amen, Sistah!!)
I encourage you to think about the following for just a second...
How would it feel to be totally in love and absolutely OK with who you are? What would that look like?
And the last, important question, what do YOU need in order to feel truly great about YOU in all your splendid glory?
Until next week, my wish is that you begin an amazing love affair with a very important person...YOU!

Another great post! You're on a roll, Pam. :)How would it feel and what would it look like? Well, it didn't take long to think about it, so I decided to write down the ickyness I've harbored lately. I looked at it, laughed and said "bye bye", cut the paper into little pieces, put it into a Pyrex dish, and set it on fire. WOOOHOOO!! That was just as the neighbors walked by and I know they must think I've lost it, but WHO CARES! :)
Today...I put on my sexiest jeans and have walked around with a swing in my walk, a smile on my face, and the attitude that this is me in all my splendid glory. :)
Thank you once again for another great post!
HUGS!
