Instructions for reading this post:

  • no arguing, no dismissing, no “Yeah, but….”s allowed
  • if one doesn’t seem to particularly fit, then repeat another one that does – you know, for emphasis
  • TRUST ME

Top Ten Reasons Why YOU ARE AWESOME:

  1. You’ve made someone feel comfortable when they were feeling embarrassed/shy/afraid/misplaced.
  2. You have bitten your tongue.  Or spoken up.  Whichever the situation dictated.
  3. You woke up this morning.
  4. You’ve done with less to help fill up someone else.
  5. You’ve laughed at yourself.  And enjoyed it.
  6. You’ve been an example to others.
  7. You’ve tried your hardest, even though you sometimes feel damaged or weak.
  8. You’ve let go when you needed to.
  9. Or…you’ve held on and let life teach you.
  10. You want to do better…to improve…to be more.

This post is dedicated to all those who are preparing for – and perhaps panicking over – going to BlogHer in New York City this weekend.  Just breathe, ladies, and please remember, there are many more than just ten reasons why YOU ARE AWESOME!

    Bless your sweet heart for writing this… what a beautiful way to get to the core of what really matters. That was my favorite “warm fuzzy” of the day, to be sure… thank you!
