Unlock your personal power


My friend Laura read my post today after I sent her the link over IM Chat. She sent me a quote from an unknown auther that she really liked.

“At the end of the day, faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. It's like one day you realize that the fairy tale is slightly different than your dream. The castle... well, it may not be a castle. And it's not so important that it’s happily ever after – just that it's happy right now.”

So along with Magic, I need to renew faith within myself. This will lead to the unlocking of my personal power and finding the joy that has been missing lately. Its been tough to even find that with which I am grateful.

Many years ago there was a book that I read called Simple Abundance by Sarah Ban Breatnach (http://www.simpleabundance.com). In her book, she talks about creating a Gratitude Journal and write five things in which you are grateful everyday. It was a wonderful exercise and really helped open up my eyes to all of the beauty and goodness that surrounded my life on a daily basis. Sarano Kelley had us repeat that exercise when I was doing my coaching session with his team through Silpada.

I think of the close friends that have been along the ride with me on my journey and I am grateful. To those of you strong women out there (and yes, you know which ones you are) I offer a sincere amount of gratitude to you for being there for me when I need a listening ear, a girl's night out or a quiet bottle of wine by the fire. Thank-you Thank-you. You all mean so much to me. You are my fairy tale. You are my castle!
