My Permission Slip

I just adore how, whenever I need something ~ inspiration, education, encouragement ~ it always seems to arrive in my inbox.

Aaah ~ Hotmail, you cornucopia you.

Today’s gift was from one of the best blogs out there, Illuminated Mind.

The whole post is sublime but down at the bottom is the jewel ~

“If you’re always thinking you need to do something to embrace your power — because that’s what permission really is — then it will always elude you.

You don’t need to do anything. Your power is available to you right now. All you have to do is say yes to it.”

So today, I say YES!

Yes to living life without seeking approval;

Yes to resigning from Starbucks despite my desperate need for a safety net;

Yes to guiding others to a more Luscious Life;

Yes to staying so Pissed Off with mediocrity that I burn to create a legacy;

and YES to doing today what others won’t do, so that tomorrow I can do what they can’t.

So, Gentle Readers, what will YOU say yes to today?

I’d be utterly delighted if you’d share.
