The Year I Give To Myself

I hope to redeem myself by being nicer to me in this new year I was not kind last year, or the year before, angry with my body for failing me Taking no blame This year I am smarter, wiser, an owl really. I will take flight at night, zooming into the cosmos, learning what I can about human health, so I can better take care of myself. I will listen to my angel guides while I dream, and will stop belittling myself in any kind of way. I am never going to learn math, and do I care really? Absolutely not! This year will be the year I give myself permission to play. I will pick up my paints, and I will smear colors together, creating whatever I want, believing in myself, fully and completely. Does it matter that no one else likes my art? Absolutely not; it is the joy of the journey, and the thrill of learning new processes that will entice, intrigue, and bring bliss to this owl. I will be more “me” than I have ever been before, and I will be gentle, and stop hurting my feelings.

I love 'joy of the journey'! Also like 'will stop belittling myself' - I must practice that as well!
