Champagne for lunch
No, I’m not celebrating. I just love the taste of bubbles on a Friday afternoon…
The weather isn’t exactly cheery but I’m alive, well and kicking and have much to look forward to. It’s the eve of a long weekend and I can taste the sense of adventure in the air.
And, I’m in a position to pretty much dictate what I want to do with my afternoon, so I’ve chosen to have a nice long lunch with a friend and come back to the office to blog, research (read: surf the www) and put the finishing touches to a microsite for an event we’re hosting this year. Not crazy challenging, which suits me just fine for this arvo.
In the last four weeks, I’ve started eating healthier and doing yoga regularly. It has helped ease my mental anguish (a certain dark cloud I acquired and has been following me around since the Winter of 2009). The good news is the cloud has disintegrated and pretty much stopped haunting me. At the young age of 32, I can see clearly that certain things aren’t worth pondering and my default state of emotions should be ‘positive, happy and hopeful’. I also want to add ‘dreaming’ in there. We are, at the core of it, all dreaming our lives up; and there is nothing in this Universe that can stop me from dreaming a better life for myself and my family.
I want all of it – and there is nothing that stops me from dreaming about all of it to come true.
This new attitude towards my world is already making itself noticeable. I’m happier – which means I’m more relaxed, less judgmental and most importantly, kinder towards everyone around me.
When we loosen the noose around our own necks, our vision improves, and our hearts open to welcome the beautiful possibilities the world has to offer us.
So untie that rope, and breath IN!
