All I Want

Three days before . . . I want to:

  • Tell the truth--to myself and to the people in my life--so that I can live authentically.
  • Connect with my friends, with my colleagues, with my fellow yoga students in a deeper way than just saying "hello" and "I'm good."
  • Say "I love you."
  • Be told that I am loved.
  • Be willing to be vulnerable.
  • Be seen for who I am--someone who's just trying to find her way and make the most out of life.
  • Stop looking for my self worth at the bottom of a container/bowl.
  • Be fully present in conversations.
  • Strengthen my relationships.
  • Be brave and stop playing everything so safe.
  • Give thoughtfully.
  • Let go; smile more, laugh more, cry more.
  • Make the first move.
  • Reclaim my focus.
  • Make my 40s the best decade yet.
  • Remember how much I have to be grateful for.
