Own it

Everything from the bad to the good...OWN IT!

It's what makes up your life. It's what created who you are.

Even the stupid, maybe even wrong decisions...if you learned from them, OWN THEM!
Throw the stuff out the window that could forever bring you guilt and keep the valued lessons that you learned.

This is YOUR life. YOU are incharge of your happiness. It's not your Mom's job, it's not your Husband's job, or your Boyfriend's job (in my case), to make you happy! They have their own happiness to worry about. Do what you expect of yourself. When it's a bad day, do what you need to do to make it better, don't rely on flowers or kind deeds from others. You are your own guarantee.

Tomorrow everything could go away and what will you be left with?...YOU. You are not a product of others choices or your environment. You are a product of what you decide you are. Own what you do, own what you say, own what you create, own what you love and dislike, change the things you don't approve of in yourself, add the things you expect of yourself.

OWN YOU!

YOU ARE GREAT! YOU ARE AMAZING! YOU MAKE ME WANT TO STAND ON MY OWN....AND I LOVE IT.

THANK YOU, YOU!

Be Where You Are

Now that I feel I have weathered the storm and have "Stayed Standing" now I need to be grounded.

I have lived in my head for a year. Now it's time to face my life, own my life, live my new life.
All the bad days, all the good days, all the tired, frustrating, happy, thrilling, moments, are now all MINE!

I don't want to be the sad story anymore. My life will not be the result of someones wrong choices...my life will be the result of MY choices!

When I'm with my kids, I want to be WITH MY KIDS.
When I'm at work, I want to be AT WORK.
When I'm at Church, I want to be AT CHURCH.
When I'm with my friends, I want to be WITH MY FRIENDS.

I want to simply BE WHERE I AM.
