Lately I have been following John Kim's emails and blog like crazy. It feels like every thing he posts means something to me.
The other day I was feeling really shitty and just like magic, inside my inbox I found the following "fortune" from him: You. Deserve. Better.
It helped.
He has inspired me to rethink, retrain my negative thought patterns and try to live more joyously. A particular post recently got me thinking about my little blisses.... he calls it "Nectar", those quiet things that make us happy, make us feel like ourselves, make us thankful. Here is a small list of my own recent nectar:
1. When Violet arrives in the morning and crawls into my bed with me. Her body is so warm and wiggly. I rub her tummy, give her tickles and watch her squirm from my tease. She is so perfectly her.
2. Good, loud music on the way to work. Particularly loud lately due to it's wakening effect on my tired mind. I've been slightly obsessed with Franz Ferdinand for some reason this past week. I rock out every morning and every afternoon on my way.
3. The heater in my office. Yeah it isn't the most exciting thing in the universe but it keeps me so toasty and comfortable on these chilly mornings. I feel blessed to come in from the cold and be warmed instantly.
4. Meeting new people. And feeling like finally, in this more mature age of mine, I am totally myself and I don't care if I am liked or not! Because I am just ME and that is all I can do.
