Be true to yourself, Be true to yourself, Be true to yourself. This has been my mantra since I was in my early 20s. I had a conversation with a very philosophical guy back then who was the adversary my much beloved boss at an Arts Organization in Toronto. These guys were rabid when they had conflicts and I found myself torn between my love for my boss and the "rightness" of his adversary's position. I often sided with my boss more to support him than to actually say "you are right". At that time, I didn't truly understand the value of living honestly ... because I had not done any of the internal work necessary to understand what my truth was - I just got up and lived every day without a care in the world ... because I could and I was shallow. That conversation with the philosophical gentleman allowed me to dig deeper and to live more honestly every day - I never had to chance to tell him how much the conversations we had helped me to grow into myself (we never stayed in touch) ... when I know better I am challenged to do better. I continue to be on that challenging path of living my truth everyday. I have learned to withstand the opposition of family and friends in the quest ... sometimes it's very challenging. I had to remind myself of that today, because I was being distracted with a lot of voices ... some of them very un-affirming ... when that happens, I pull my mantra to the forefront and dig deeper to discover/claim my truth. The stress of that process almost triggered crazy eating ... I was literally on the verge of falling prey because I was feeling so unhinged for a moment ... so stressful, but I can do this! I will be true to myself and in doing so, I will be good to myself.
I hope all my FS friends are having a great weekend! It's a wonderful day .. so sunny and warm ... I will go out for a long walk which will allow me to untangle some of my internal knots. I had a lovely breakfast of steak, 1 egg and made a cup of hot cocoa. My daughter bought some fresh baked bagels and I gave in to one of them with sloshes of delicious butter flown in from Prince Edward Island. I have not had bagels in ages (since October 23, 2013) and it was wonderful but I am done! I will not travel the slippery slope of carb over-consumption today....
