Savor Your Fears and They Are Easier to Digest

Each and every fear that you have held onto has had a purpose to serve. Many fears you have already conquered, while others still have you believing you are not capable.

It is when you believe these fears are nothing but negativities placed in your way to thwart your growth, that you fail to see what fun it can be to face each one. Did we say “fun?” Yes, indeed we did.

Like the Cracker Jack snack you grew up with when the prize was buried so deep; underneath the many kernels of corn as well as the sporadic candy-coated peanut. Sometimes you chipped a tooth on an unpopped kernel, or found out too late you had just devoured a rotten nut. In the end, no matter how many unexpected little happenings occurred while eating your way to the bottom, you always found your prize. As it is with those things that scare you most.

Now that you have been reminded of what it takes to get to "the prize," GRAB onto your fears one by one with excitement, "RIP off the top of the box" and dig in! For there will always be something very special waiting for you once you start to digest all that seems to stand in the way.

Today Love Wants You to Know #9

It used to be said, "Beauty is only skin deep." It was not only "said," but believed. We know better now.

The old saying implied that if one was physically beautiful, there was more than likely nothing beneath the surface. It was a saying to imply when the looks were gone and age set in, one was up for a big wake-up call.

All of that aside, back to the saying, "Beauty is only skin deep." It is time to not only look at this phrase from a different angle, but then to disagree.

On a level much deeper than the "skin," each and every person has so much to offer that is beautiful beyond measure. This beauty can be expressed through words, art, music, or in the way one loves.

Some exude beauty each and every day just by being their true and authentic selves without the worry of whether or not they will be accepted by all. It is not about being accepted by all, but instead by Self.

There are many ways to express your beauty, but first you must realize just how beautiful you are. Never doubt your ability to beautify the world. Never feel inadequate when it comes to how much your presence can affect another.

You are not "what" you see in the mirror, but instead "who" resides beneath that "skin." There are no "ugly ducklings," only flocks of "swans" still unaware.
