Getting my ass kicked…

Listening to a podcast a few minutes ago, was so liberating. Let me explain.

Sometimes people that are floating around in your life could be, if you allow them, big downers and make you feel, all with your consent, like crap. They don’t even realize you’re feeling like poop. It’s all an inside job.


In this podcast with this wise woman, she was quoting someone that said that if you are not slaughing it out in the arena like I am, you have no understanding of how I’m walking my life and therefore you are wasting your time to issue an interpretation as to your perception of me as an individual, and what you think of me and how I’m doing at this stage of my life. Wow! That was a long sentence. When you get to be 74, call me, and we’ll check on you and how is it working for you.


Bottom line is, how you interpret or think about me is a reflection of you at this time in your life. But as the saying goes, no one is perfect.

Everything is constantly changing, weather, stuff, relationships, so are we. I’m such a dumbass, always holding on to things, that according to me, should be this way or that way. That’s a recipe to keep you at the mercy of other’s opinions about you.

I feel so liberated! My life is wonderful as it is and I’m an amazing woman with great and beautiful accomplishments in my life. Others have said this to me before, but only now I receive it. It’s a great feeling.

You can try to kick my ass, or whatever is left of it, but before you do, take a look at yourself first.

Ta ta! Blessings, always.
