It’s my birthday today.  Woo Hoo!  I am so blessed.  I am 70 years old today. WOW! Seventy years is a long time and, yet, I feel much younger.  To what do I attribute my youthfulness?

Self-Care - Genetics have been good to me and I take care of myself on the outside and the inside.  I forgive easily (including myself)  and let go of bad feelings. Discipline is the highest form of self-care and I am really good at this.  They call me the Accountability Queen.  I truly love myself and all that is me.

Mindset - Our internal conversations never stop.  All we can do is choose the ones that serve us.  My glass is half full, I shift off of any judgments and opinions that are negative and replace them with loving thoughts. I believe that people are doing the best they can and do not hold their behaviors against them.

Higher Power (or whatever you call it) - Over many years of working on personal growth, I have found that my spirituality saves my day.  Surrendering to God gives me peace and joy.  I ask him every day to put me in the perfect place to do my work with people. Things don’t always happen in my time frame and I’m learning patience and Grace.

Now, it sounds like I’ve arrived..lol. NOPE! I am a spiritual being having human experiences.  During these human experiences i fall into the ego driven, righteous, and impatient person.  The difference is that I notice and get out quicker and quicker.  

The key is to do your inner work.  Be present to the moment.  Be love.

So Happy Birthday to ME. I have many more
