The Language of Letting Go July 4th

Celebrate

Take time to celebrate.

Celebrate your successes, your growth, and your accomplishments. Celebrate you and who you are.

For too long you have been too hard on yourself. Others have spilled their negative energy - their attitudes, beliefs, and pain - on you. It had nothing to do with you! All along, you have been a gift to yourself and to the Universe.

You are a child of God. Beautiful, a delight, a joy. You do not have to try harder, be better, be perfect, or be anything you are not. Your beauty is in you, just as you are each moment.

Celebrate that.

When you have a success, when you accomplish something, enjoy it. Pause, reflect, and rejoice. Too long you have listened to admonitions not to feel good about what you have done, lest you travel the downward road to arrogance.

Celebration is a high form of praise, of gratitude to the Creator for the beauty of God's creation. To enjoy and celebrate the good does not mean that it will be taken from you. To celebrate is to delight in the gift, to show gratitude.

Celebrate your relationships! Celebrate the lessons from the past and the love and warmth that are there today. Enjoy the beauty of others and their connection to you.

Celebrate all that is in your life. Celebrate all that is good. Celebrate you!

Today, I will indulge in the joy of celebrating. 

*****************************************************************

Why are we so eager to berate ourselves when we aren't perfect, yet as slow-as-molasses to celebrate our magnificence?  

I am not my Body; I am my Spirit & my Heart, my capacity to Love & to Give, my warmth & my smile.  

I am allowed to Celebrate my Life, and to love myself unconditionally, no matter WHAT!

I can count my blessings & feel gratitude for all the good in my life, without worrying about what may come along tomorrow, or what happened yesterday.

I will celebrate my beauty, which is not a form of 'ego' but a form of giving thanks to God for all that I Am. My inner beauty reflects through my eyes & through my Presence and shows the world that I carry God within me, whether my body is clad in sweat pants or a ballgown.


For today, I consider myself a Success and I will celebrate my Life and my Self! 

For today, instead of mourning what I don't have, I will celebrate all that I DO have and all that I AM!
