"1. Am I being honest with myself?

Often, the person that we lie to the most is ourselves. But this journal is your safe space. Let loose the chains. Radical self-honesty can work miracles, I swear.
2. Do I feel like I can give myself permission?

Let go of the need to seek without – your permission lies within. You can tell yourself yes. Write it down – “I give myself permission to…”
3. What does my ideal life look like?

If I were living only for me, without the worry of making an impression on others. Use imagery, colors, sounds, places, and feelings. Create a beautiful scene that you can then figure out how to slip into.
4. What do I really want?

Be wild. Be forgiving of your wildness. Remember radical self-honesty? Apply it again. This quote has saved my life on more than one occasion:

“Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.” – Rumi
5. What is the most important thing right now?

Bringing your focus to the present moment is something I believe can heal most internal wounds. Here, lies the truth. Here, we can see what is important. A month ago, the choice to either go to India for a month, or stay home with my husband was nearly tearing me in two. After all, it was only a month! But when I sat down & reflected upon the most important thing RIGHT THIS SECOND, the answer was beautifully obvious. (Just so you know, I’ve still never been to India.)"

Currently dealing with a lot of what the heck am I going to do now what with my business partner budging me out and all. I will still have my business I know but one of the reasons that I wanted to start a wellness center is that I could make money off of what other people are doing. Massage is a bit physically taxing as you can imagine. My whole life I have loved taking pictures and having pictures taken of me. I think I might explore the option of selling some of my art.

The Portland Japanese Garden asked me to send them a cd with the pics I took there. I can't use them cause they reserve the rights to all images taken there. I lose nothing by sending it and might actually gain something. I'd be thrilled just to see them use one and get a credit for it. What if I'm wrong though? I may think they are great images but ... I am a bit terrified.

Welcome to today's dose of Amy's neuroses.
