Today, I'm feeling so-so...okay. I'm not in the best of moods, but I have to say that I'm above ground. (Old people say that, am I getting old? Or wiser?)

So, you can't let the stressors of life stress you out. You have to live your life. I have chosen to become more of who I am. Some people would think it is an obvious thing to do, but sometimes, you have to push yourself to go further into the person you truly are. Sometimes, those surface people who think that they know so much about themselves really don't know anything. And it takes a courageous person to admit that they have to learn a little more about him or herself. I definitely have to step further into me, to get to a safer place inside myself. This is not a hiding place, it's just a place where rest and peace reside and love is abundant. It a place that gives me the peace of mind to know that, where I am, no one can harm me. It is the place where God lives. We are all capable of getting there--through prayer, action, change of thought, conversation, a reflection in the mirror--many ways. So, this is my challenge to myself today--to get to a deeper place within myself. It doesn't have to be that much deeper. A little depth goes a long way, but I am challenging myself to go as deep as I can go, today, and to find peace within me to live and be free from the angst and anxiety that I feel right now. And if you're feeling anything that is not of you, I pray the same for you. Have a good one!

Love,
Yvette
