June 1. It's my birthday, it's a celebration, it's every thing lovely. I love my birthday and plan to always celebrate it in a big fierce way. As I embark on this next year of my life I wish for a fierceness and boldness to grow in me with such ferver that I can hardly hold it in. When I blow out my candles today I will be setting the intention to grow to love myself and be comfortable in my own skin and in this glorious body a little more every day.
One of the best parts of birthdays is opening gifts. I love the way the paper feels under my fingers right before I rip into it. I love the sight of tissue paper and the crinkling sound it makes as I dive in. And, I've always liked "things." I like to have stuff and to be surrounded by what I enjoy. But this year I've had this ephinay and I realize that I'm the best thing I've got going for myself and there is nothing better than I can invest in than me. It feels a little selfish and it seems a little (a lot, actually!) self centered, but I really need to focus in on me. Yes, my true birthday wish is for Fierce Love.
For the past several weeks I've been soliciting my friends and family for birthday gift donations towards an online course that the same ladies who created the Fierce Love for Every Body facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/FierceLoveEveryBody) are running. I've told my friends and family that this year I don't want more stuff, I want to take this class . The response has been really uplifting. The course starts tomorrow and I've recieved almost enough to pay for it! I'll know the grand total by the end of the day.
The title of the class is "Fierce Love: A Nine Month Body Homecoming" (http://www.fiercelove.me/bodyhomecoming/) . Doesn't that sound fabulous? I can't believe the timing on the start date (the day after my birthday! How sweet is that?!) and feel, to the depth of my being, that I am meant to take this class. For the next nine months, I will be moving through some life changing ideas and expercing even more paradigm shifts. The excietment I am feeling can't be matched!
Now, please excuse me, I hear a birthday cake calling my name...
