Are You Searching For Yourself?



Ladies I hope the weekend brought good things, allowed time for you to complete errands and permitted a moment for some much needed rest and relaxation.  I myself, got a chance to catch up on some movies that I’ve wanted to see, and I’m delighted to let you all know that I finally saw “Eat, Pray, Love” and, in my opinion, it was incredible!  The movie really got me thinking about how far some of us would go to find inner peace?  Peace could be peace of mind, solitude, forgiveness, revelation; the ultimate search for emotional stability.  Ladies, not everybody could afford to travel the world to find themselves, nor find the flexibility to just get up and go; so does that mean the “you” that you’re searching for can never be found?  Stop for a moment and look around you—what do you see?  In your environment, you are surrounded by tools and resources that can aide you in a journey of self growth and revelation.  Look in the mirror, who is looking back at you?  Do you recognize this person? Is it really you or a version of the person you once were? Are you happy or disappointed with the image?  Maybe you're content; however, there are some things you would like to improve, but simply can’t find the motivation?  My point is, a journey of this magnitude cannot begin if you don’t have an idea of what you’re looking for.  Maybe you don’t have to look at all, but in the end only you can make that determination. 

Ladies, after watching the movie, what I’ve come to realize is that my appetite is ferocious when it comes to my self growth, and also eager to learn about the history and beauty of the world that exists around me.  It’s like the moment you become conscious of the importance of something you learned in a class, but up until that very moment you never knew why you needed to follow the agenda—and now all of the sudden you can apply it to your life and it all makes sense.  Ladies, I push for you all to stay focused on your goals this year, and not fear whether or not the outcome is successful. Be assured that as you continue taking steps towards your future, towards your dreams, you will become a living testament to the reality of them as you once only imagined it could be.  Understand fully and truly what it is that you seek to find within yourself, and through patience and consistency you can claim them. Ladies, we are at the realm overseeing our destinies, and it will all be revealed in time.  Ultimately, being successful in anything means believing in the power of yourself, and your willfulness to support the quest and the notion!
