I have always been enthusiastic, energetic and eager for new projects! Lately, however, something has caught up with me and interefered in my energy levels and zest for life! AAAAAARGH! How can my body let me down like this? I have doctors telling me to remember I am turning 40 this year and cannot continue to teach and train as much as I used to. WOW! That is hard to accept! How does someone who eats well and does LOTS of exercise end up sick?
Well - I refuse to take this lying down and after quite a good amount of self pity (admit it, we all do it) I have decided to see this as a new opportunity to redefine myself!
After years of seeing myself as just a little bit too curvy (that changed when I saw myself on a video recently and realised my head now looks too big for my body), of chasing after that waif-like ballet body that I will never have, of striving for perfection in everything and beating myself up when I feel I have failed to achieve that, I have decided "DAMMIT who the hell is in charge of my head and my thoughts?"
Me right?
OK - so here is where life begins....with me taking charge! I think....maybe....hmmm...can I do this....eeek....
To all those women out there who are juggling work, family, cooking, cleaning, never ending bills, and the stress of trying to be good at everything....this blog is for me and for you because we really are good enough the way we are!!!!
Roll it on...the first day of liking being me!
