Recently, two quotes have come to my attention:
1. You owe it to all of us to get with what you're good at. A. H. Auden
2. Take care of yourself - you never know when the world will need you. Rabbi Hillel
Okay, I got it. I am amazing and it is time that I allowed my "amazingness" to show up in my world. For a lot of years, I really tried to keep my light hidden under a bushel. Is it bushel or bush? My "childhood" mind remembers, "bushel." Whatever it is, I am no longer going to keep from being "out there" in whatever form I need to take to be who I am. Hiding no longer feels good.
Every year about this time, I begin to wonder, how close am I to what God intended me to be? Since I was created in greatness, is that what I am experiencing? What else needs to be done?
My pledge for the New Year is to get on with what I am good at, to explore new areas about myself, decide what new and different I want to experience, add some new people into my close circle of friends, and to fill my life with love and joy.
