Embracing "Me"

In the past few months I've started learning a lot more about myself. Some good, some not so good. The thing is though, I'm even able to appreciate the things that aren't so good, because they're a part of me. And I'm finally learning how to be okay with me...and with everything that means.

I spent a very large part of the last year not checked into my life at all. I think back to this time last year, when a lot of my life was a big fat lie...I was working very hard to make it appear as though everything was "fine" to outside observers, when in fact, my life was anything but fine. The good news now is that I'm being honest about myself and where I am at in my life. I know that this isn't always comfortable for other people....but my only response to that can be "so?". This is my life....and if I'm able to look myself square in the eye every day, then everyone else should be able to do the same.

And now, to celebrate my "me-ness", here's a little video that makes me giggle hysterically every time I watch it.

Oh - and a big thanks to the person who first showed this music to me...because you're doing a lot to teach me that it's okay to be me...no matter who that me is.
