Dear Jen,

Love this… love you… and I too, am thrilled that you said dickhead!

That whole comparison thing and not appreciating who we are and the gifts we have no matter how much attention or money or acclaim they get from the outside world is just so toxic.

This is such a great reminder to feast on what has been given to us by spirit and to remember how rich we all are in our own creative juiciness… if we can only remember it!

Fabulous post! I so LOVE that you used dick-head. HA!

speaking of: self-aggrandizement and narcissistic look-at-me nature.
Recently my hubby and I saw a commercial for a camera where you can take a picture of yourself (don’t know why that’s different than the other cameras out there – I wasn’t really paying attention). All the sudden Hubby says, “Well, that says it all about our society….take a picture of yourself.” There’s a line between doing what you’re saying and not.

Anyways, I came up with one of my new favorite sayings after a discussion with myself in my journal……

I am worthy because I am a soul and all souls are worthy – therefore, I am worthy because I am.

I have read and reread your heart zinging comments and I write this with a huge happy grin on my face. I’m also happy to report that honoring my gifts is going well and it is so much easier when we have support, isn’t it?I look forward to continuing this conversation and staying honest with each other. Even though we are scattered to the four directions, we are connected. I honor that, too!

Yes, Jen–

For YOU, Jennifer Louden, to honor what you’ve been given that you so generously have shared with all of us – THAT is a powerful lesson for YOU and for ME to honor my own gifts as I see you honor yours.

Powerful. . . life changing . . . insightful. . . I see that in you every moment. And I see it in myself too.

Thank you for this.

What a wonderful gift for my Thanksgiving week! Your words have honored us all!
Sometimes I forget that even though I go to work everyday as a Nurse…that it is a gift that I should honor. It is always my hope that when I leave a patient’s room, that I have not only “gifted” them with some personal aspect of being their Nurse……but that I have honored them. It is refreshing to be reminded of the wonderful and very special gift that God blessed this Critical Care Nurse with……and perhaps honoring myself…….will help me be exactly what my patients need! Certainly, it will make me the Nurse that I want to be!
Thank you Jen, and have a great week!
