Live Your Life!

It’s my birthday on Monday and I am already excited. Why? Because I love my life and I am not afraid to admit it. I am ready to not only celebrate me, but where I am in my life and all the years to come! I am ready to celebrate the awesome people who have surrounded, supported and loved me throughout this year and all the years before.
I truly LOVE my life.
I don’t feel guilt or regret and I don’t feel obligated to have a life filled with commitments that don’t serve or fulfill me. Over the last few weeks, I have talked with quite a few people who are living a life they don’t love. I hear the stories of needing money, needing security or feeling guilty for not doing what others want.
Unfortunately, I remember those days too. I was unhealthy, unhappy and desperately trying to control everything I could. I worked at a job that was destroying my health and I spent my free time trying to control my actions as well as others. This was extremely tiring and often heart breaking. No paychecks are worth this pain!
But then I woke up, and my yoga practice, which was once all physical became much more. Yoga has opened my eyes and my heart and allowed me to become a priority. Don’t get me wrong, I love helping and giving to others, but I do that because I genuinely love helping and caring for others. I feel fulfilled; I feel alive and I feel a part of something much bigger than me.
I won’t deny that leaving my job and moving forward with a life I love was easy, but it was worth it. All the tears, belly pains and muscle aches vanished and a life I love began to develop. Every day this life changes, but I enjoy what I am doing now and my decisions are based on how I will feel at the end of the situation, not how guilty I will feel if I don’t do it.
Life is meant to be filled with smiles, laughter, joy, energy, love and friendship.Take the other stuff out that does not provide this and transform your life into something amazing and something you want to live. Don’t ever think this is not for you! This is for you and for everyone! Make the choice to make these changes!
Love, Love, Love!!!!!
