I hope these thoughts give you something to ponder while you enjoy your morning beverage. As you go about your day, I invite you to take some time to reflect on your observations. Consider if there’s anything you can do to enhance your life, such as looking into the mirror and appreciating yourself. You may also find a way to make the world more beautiful with a simple act of kindness. Perhaps you can hold the door open without expecting a thank you. You may also want to consider if you have a gift to share with the world. Maybe you have some untapped talent you regret wasting, as we sometimes do with unused towels or our good china. I hope you find them enjoyable and return for more tomorrow.
Dance
Dance like no one is watching. Most of us have heard this, but how many do it?
We are being true to ourselves when we dance like no one is watching. We are telling the world this is who I am: take it or leave it. Your opinion of me is none of my business.
Many find it hard to be authentic because everyone has an opinion. Our family, friends, and strangers have something to say about who we are and how we behave. Since so many crave belonging or being loved, they are afraid to be their true selves. They adjust their dance to fit society. In other words, they conform to what society says is normal.
We must dance in our spotlight as ourselves so that we can shine our light as it is meant to be.
When we are dancing, our authentic dance, we contribute to the world. Maybe our dance is to make others laugh, or perhaps it is to cause them to appreciate life. Either way, when we dance like no one is watching, we are not only being true to ourselves but also helping others learn to be true to themselves.
Today’s challenge:
Go outside and dance.
