Beefy Or Peachy Part II

How can I be happy with myself and my life today? I believe I can only be happy with myself and my life today if I actively pursue doing acts of kindness not only towards others, but towards myself as well. If I am to ever nurture others, I must first learn to love and care for myself. Being a survivor of csa it is not always easy to love myself as I am, but unless I can accomplish that, with God's help, I cannot conquer my fears and self doubts.

I have at least two medical problems that must be addressed this year. Neither being pleasant and both fill me with fear as I will have to be 'under' for both procedures to happen. That always scares me as I am not always sure I will 'wake up' from the anesthesia. Somehow I must find the courage to have these things done. I will have to do a lot of praying to accomplish these medical goals.

This year hubby and I will also be addressing our health and weight issues. Today at hubby's work many of them are embarking on a weight loss competition that will end on March 31st. The person who has lost the greatest percentage of weight will get the monetary reward for doing so. Those that are participating are each donating $20 towards this collective goal. Hubby is motivated to collect that reward. The good side of that is that at home he will be serving smaller portions. He often serves enough for two which is a problem for me digestive wise and weight wise so I am glad that this is a new goal for him as I will reap rewards of eating less amounts of food as well.

Have a good day folks!

Peace and Joy to your Hearts,

When we dream we are often living out events that have happened to us, or we worry about things that could happen to us, or just some variation of a movie or story we have read. Our hopes and dreams, our desires, everything comes out in our dreams. I don't always remember my dreams, but the ones I have usually offer me some information about myself. It is of course up to me whether or not I discuss it with anyone, act on the information given to me in my dream, or just 'let it go.'

Our dreams are often influenced by the health of our spirit/spirituality. If our spirit is low and feeling overwhelmed your dream will act out with this information. I have often thought about keeping a recorder by my bed, but so far that is just a procrastination of mine, lol. I don't want to wake hubby up, but I don't want to have to turn the light on either to make notes!

Have a good day all,
