Opening of a Rose...

Jan 29, 2011

With each pound I shed, I become more visible. With each pound gone, more of me shines through. With each pound gone I open, like a rose. 

But I think it takes more than just shedding the weight for me to live my best life.  I have to also be willing and able to poke holes in my self-induced shield.  I have to be willing to walk the world fabulously, brilliantly...and exposed. 

I am worthy of all the great things life has in store for me!  My head knows this, but it is taking just a bit longer for my heart to catch up.  I am presented with gifts everyday that will aid me on my journey.  Some I recognize, and some unfortunately, I do not.  But I am working on it.  

I want the sun to shine on me!  I want to feel its rays massage the deep places in my soul.  I want lazy, rainy days to replenish me.  My relationships will feed me as I sojourn on to become the strongest, sweetest flower in the garden.  The world will be a better place because I dared to bloom!

And after a season, I will open just like a rose. ..
