Love Yourself - IT MATTERS

Self-Discoveries

Experiment

Bill and Jill at recent weddingMy daughter Jill married her sweetheart Bill on Saturday, August 16, 2008. It was a lovely, sunny, cool day and everyone looked beautiful.

Jill and Bill planned the wedding for a year and everything was perfect. The hall looked beautiful and everyone had a great time dancing. It was a fairytale wedding.

Watching them during the ceremony brought back memories of how Bob and I were. We shared our dreams, traveled and enjoyed life's little things. What I wish for Jill and Bill is a life filled with happiness, compassion for each other and enjoyment of the little things.

Isn't it amazing how much planning goes into a wedding and then within 5 to 6 hours it is over. The secret is to enjoy the planning stage of an event and then when the night finally arrives enjoy the people.

While writing this newsletter I was thinking how most people live very busy lives, hoping something will happen or planning an event. They do not take the time each day to smell the flowers and be grateful for what is happening in the moment.

It has taken me many years to finally STOP for a moment and appreciate what is happening around me. Today, taking that time to take a deep breath, I found the following things brought a smile to my face:

  • The sun is shining and there is a slight breeze blowing.

  • Music is playing in the background.

  • My cats Alice and Alfie are sitting right next to me.

  • Some of my friends called, just to say hello and see how I am doing.

  • I enjoyed writing the Love Yourself - It Matters! Newsletter.

Now it is your turn!

STOP for a moment and think of all the small things in life you are grateful for. Together let's build a list which we can share with each other . I am looking forward to hearing from you.

I am available to support you in any way. Please send me an email to helen@loveyourselfcoaching.net

Golden Opportunities

As a child we had a summer home at the New Jersey Shore. Everyday I went to the beach, played with my friends and swam in the ocean. As I grew older I learned how to socialize, play bridge and interact in a relationship.

The one day I dreaded was Labor Day because everyone packed up and left. I felt my world was coming to an end because I would not see my friends again until next summer.

Once I got back home to Jersey City, saw my other friends, started school and became involved in my new life, things got easier.

Looking back I realized that Labor Day is our transition day and we start living life by our fall and winter rituals.

This will be a new season for me as I discover the new golden opportunities in my life.

I want to thank everyone for your emails and support. I feel loved and supported.
