Life Lessons...say Yes to SELF!

As a very young girl I had some experiences that I interpreted as; "I was abandoned by the people who should have taken care of me." The experiences are no longer of any significant importance as it was the story that I made up that has been the vehicle that has driven my life. Many times because of that belief I have made choices to jump ship and abandon people or situations so as to make sure somebody did not abandon me again and over and over. Even money became something that I would get rid of before I lost it so I could feel I had the power over it not it over me. So whenever I would get money I would give it away or get rid of it as soon as possible. Trust was the partner to abandonment. I would not trust people when in reality it was myself that I did not trust. This week I have had some beautiful shifts in my life that have assisted me in seeing clearly that it was really ME that would abandon myself. I see clearly how I have done that in so many different events and with different opportunities in my life. I am choosing a different path and a different way now!!! It is no wonder my business is "SelfYes". That is truly what it is all about for me and for every other human that walks the planet. How can we serve until we have something to give. I have given and given and given until I was completely depleted and NOW it is time to give to ME.

I am going to say YES to myself every day and then I will have so much more to give to you!

HOMEWORK


These are the women that I spend most of my life with at work at IHS. My homework assignment tonight was to learn to post. They gave me the assignment and so they can be first to know their lives will no longer be private.
Well maybe---there is a ton we hear not---see not---speak not!!!!!
GO LIONS

PRICELESS

It does not get much better than this for a MOM. In 2007 I graduated from UofP with a 3.9 in Human Services. The BEST part was coming out of the tunnel into the room to find all 8 of my children proudly wearing t-shirts that read:

$6,870 for Diapers

$19,230 for School Clothes

$144,520 for Groceries

and on the back

HAVING ALL EIGHT OF MY KIDS

AT MY COLLEGE

GRADUATION


PRICELESS




















One question, who figured out these amounts? I'm thinking that maybe just maybe one of you has spent a third of that school clothes amount all by her whoops or his little self.........it was a great day. Thanks kids for a memory of a lifetime.
