A year off

[sabrinamari]

Mornings are always great times for me to get insights, and this one is no exception. My last year and a half allowed me to do a great deal of personal growth around relationships and intimacy. That was good, bad, up, down...a little bit of everything. Ultimately, it will all be useful.

I think I'll take a year off from these particular lessons and just allow them to settle and integrate while I create the career I really want, the friendships I really want, the life's work I really want, and most importantly, the kind of friendly relationship with myself that I really want. Then, later, when I've grown into the person I truly want to be, I'll return to these lessons with greater insight and more of an ability to create what I really want there, too.

Big themes I think will emerge:

* self-love: what it means in real, day-to-day life and how I can live it every day
* self-worth: reaffirming it in every part of my life until it all my choices flow naturally from a place of high self-worth

And then I think I will be able to:

* ...seek out and embrace only that which is optimal for me, giving and receiving from a place of balanced reciprocity

This feels right. Relief!

"I think I'll take a year off..." Who are you kidding? Two days, tops.

In fact, I'll run the betting pool. OK, friends of Sabrina, how long do you think it will be until she has her next insight? Winner gets a foot massage.

Seriously, part of who you are is to seek new perspectives and evaluate them. You may not put every single new tip or idea into practice, but you seem enjoy the constant acquisition of new ones. I can't see that changing.

Good grief, I'm willing to bet that she's already done so and hasn't yet posted it!

Sabri, do what you need to do, but don't change those things about you that are already truly wonderful. Resting is a good thing, but don't box yourself in---because you know what they say about the best laid plans of mice and men, don't you? (grin)

Hugs!

Hugging you. Naw, I think you misunderstood me...

[sabrinamari.livejournal.com]

No, no, I meant something else...I made the changes above to clarify it. All good.

We have to teach you something about timing. Try this:

- "I put my money on having an insight three seconds from now."

- "I just realized what great friends I have. I win the pool!"

- "Where's my foot massage?"

- Then update the blog post.

Laughing...

People, I just meant that I was gonna focus on my career and my own individual stuff, that's all.

I'm not trying to give myself a personality transplant. Sheesh!

I still want the foot massage, tho.

I'd also say that it is as much an inherent part of Sabrina as it is an inherent part of the universe to shove these potential lessons/insights at a person anyway.

That being said, Bill, you need to give her more credit! I say four days. The weekend is coming up, after all.

You TOTALLY owe me a shoulder rub for that one.

Grinning...

Giving yourself the breathing space to process, transform, dance in a circle, wiggle like a worm, etc is a good thing.

What does this means?

I'm proud of you.

I love you.

I am in awe of YOU.

I'm trying to figure out who would win in a contest of leisure between you and Rebecca Proch. Honestly I'm stumped

[sabrinamari.livejournal.com]

That is so unbelievably funny.

I am NOT as seriously overcommitted as Rebecca.

NO HUMAN BEING is as overcommitted as Rebecca!
