February

I am "coming down" from January. The first month of the year was fabulous. Many new opportunities were presented to me, in a creative capacity, and I made many new and dear friends.

I am 4 days into February, and thinking, "WHAT?"....

I am so distracted right now. I used to be a workaholic but, as I was explaining to a friend today, I am really only interested in "creating" right now. Whatever form that takes....writing, singing, being surrounded by music, creating relationships....

Work is suffering because of it. I think I am totally 100% burnt out from literally "running" for the past 14 years.

I have always put myself 2nd or last. Others always came first. In my profession, I have to be "On" the moment someone demands my time. I have exceptional clients. The best ones always say "Thank you", sometimes over and over again. However, most people do not respect those in my profession and it can wear you down. It has me.

Now, all of a sudden...the universe is giving me so many "gifts" in the form of opportunities, new friends, dreams coming to fruition and intense bravery.

If you have recently entered my "circle", you have given me a gift. You may not have any comprehension of the importance of your presence in my life at this time, but it is huge. You are instrumental in this part of my journey. I hope you decide to stick around as long as you are able to. This is an incredible time for me....I can just feel it. Thank you for showing up in my life at precisely the moment I needed you, and could be a good friend to you.

I am happily overwhelmed, but it is finally my turn.

I graciously accept.
