~~Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that because what the world needs is people who have come alive.~~ Unknown I used to be soooo busy!! Doing things that people expected. I was a "exceptional" supervisor, "amazing" mother, "dutiful" daughter....and it kept me busy...exhausted...drained...stressed. And smoking. Then I suddenly remembered that I was important, too. I didn't want to die without ever really living "my" life. I explored my likes, dislikes, fears, talents. I discovered that I am a pretty delightful person without having to be everything to everyone. The negatives in my life drifted away and I found joy in me!! You can do the same. You are unique and delightful and marvelous!! And underneath all that stress and frustration and uncertainty beats the heart of a nonsmoker. Because well balanced, content people don't smoke. No one should smoke...no one deserves that!! Be happy...be wise...be you!! Find your nonsmoking self and truly come alive! Happy Thursday, all! Much love to you, Sheri
