Who Are You Really?

Isn’t it interesting how when you first meet someone, everything seems “perfect” because it’s new, fresh and exciting.

Does Your Face Tell Who You Really Are?

But as time goes on, people get comfortable and remove their “best” image so you now see the “real” deal.

And sometimes, you are shocked because the “real” person is not who you originally thought he or she was.

Well let’s be honest, we all show our best image attempting to impress others.  And when the mask gradually comes off over time, people get to finally see who you really are.

So who are you?

Who are you really?

How do you perceive yourself?

These are some important questions because once you have clarity as to who you “really” are in your core, life takes on new meaning.

It’s FREEING to release mistakes, what others say, and past hurts as you tap into the TRUTH about who you really are.

For me, from this day forward, I have made the decision to be loving to myself and to others.

And what does that really mean?

It means that I will be kind, show respect, and have compassion.

And what happens when I slip?   I will be forgiving of myself.  And because no one is perfect, I will also be forgiving of others.

Today is a NEW Day! 

So beyond your mistakes, what others have said, or what you have experienced, who are you?

Who are YOU really?

2012 — A NEW Beginning!

by Marlon on January 3, 2012

Happy New Year!

So the NEW Year is Here!

2012 is HERE!

What does that really mean to you?

 

How is this year going to be different from previous years?

 

How will you keep the excitement rolling?

For me, I love NEW Beginnings because there is a fresh start where I reflect on the past, learn lessons and restart with new goals.

So what about for you?

2012 is here!

What are your New Year’s Resolutions?  What are your goals?  What will be different this year?

I ask these questions because at the beginning of a NEW year, there is usually excitement.  There are New Year Eve parties…. There are Night Watch church services… There are family socials.

Bur the real question is:  “How do we keep the excitement and positive energy flowing throughout the entire year?”

That’s the question!

To help my family keep our excitement alive beyond the initial New Year Eve celebration, we have posted our “FAMILY BLESSINGS AND MIRACLES” poster board on a wall in our kitchen.  Each day, we individually write blessings and miracles which we appreciate.

Our “FAMILY BLESSINGS AND MIRACLES” poster board allows each of us to celebrate every day.  And the beautiful thing about this is that we are now appreciating each day because what we focus on is what we experience.

So what are you doing to keep the excitement of the NEW year rolling?

Do you think writing on your “FAMILY BLESSINGS AND MIRACLES” poster board will make a difference for you?
