Happy Birthday to Me

When you try and control everything you enjoy nothing. Sometimes you have to breathe, relax and let go and live in this moment. – Himanshi Poetry

Happy Monday!

Today at 2:42pm, mountain time, marks my 65th trip on this planet around the sun and heading into my 66th year of life. Something that seems surreal to me in so many ways, but it is what it is. And I am who I am on this most auspicious occasion.

This morning at the crack of dawn I got up to mediate in my garden so that I could fully grasp where I want to go from here as I count my blessings for all that has passed by me throughout my life. The great joys, the devastating sorrows, the people I have had the honor of knowing and loving, and the lessons learned as well as my eagerness to learn and discover more.

What I do know for sure is that is I want to take the moments to come in a calmer tone. And let go of any expectations I had for my life because as it turned out, what I was actually given was so much better.

I will admit to you over the weekend I had a bit of a freak out getting my arms around this birthday and the changes ahead of me (more about this in next weeks letter). But my ever wise daughter walked me off the ledge and reminded me to chill. So today I am chilling and happy to celebrate this birthday.

Last week I posted on Instagram a reel about a flower having a beginning, a middle and an end, before it starts over again. And I feel like I have a new start about to happen and that makes me smile this morning.

Speaking of flowers…this weeks You Tube video is all about seeds and the flowers they make.

Reminder as well for those of you here in the Denver area that I will be speaking at Ignite Denver on Wednesday night. The topic I am speaking on is Nurture Nature as Nature Nourishes You.

And with that I am going to head off to celebrate this day and all the glorious gifts I have been given over these past 66 years. Have a most awesome week ahead and until next week...
