Thoughts from me and for me

Take time to breathe this week. Take time to ponder all the things you've done this year that you are glad for. Evaluate the things you did that you regret. Don't set a lofty goal for the new year, but set one that means something. Without goals there is no progress. Commit to living the new year with integrity. Integrity being that we hold ourselves to a higher standard. See yourself as a better person. More loving more organized more compassionate. Healthier.

What we eat and how our bodies look does not define us. But how we care for that which has been gifted us does. Will you bury your talent or find ways to develop your body and mind to the benefit and service of those around you?

A new day dawns. Cast off the 2009 you. And awaken unto the you of 2010. Happy, satisfied, patient, smart, and calm. Anger gives way to grief. Grief is dealt with and discarded and gives way for peace and acceptance.

Breathe. Take time to breathe and prepare for the new year.

A new year.

A NEW year!

What will it bring for you?

Oh, a yoga blog...love it! I wasn't sure how to post back to you, so that's why I'm here.

I wanted to thank you for your thoughtful comment on my blog. I don't want you to think that I'm glib on the subject of birthmothers. That's not the case at all. Believe me, I don't take any part of adoption lightly. I fully understand (as fully as I can) the heartbreak and losses on all sides of the triad. As you can understand, I just don't appreciate being attacked by people with anti-adoption views...I didn't visit their blog and comment with pro-adoption things, etc. I can't respect how they are trying to get their message across. Anyway, it took us 3 years to go from IVF to adoption, mainly because of my fears of many things, especially for the child that we would adopt. We definitely did not jump into this process. I don't want our child to be end up being someone who attacks others for trying to build their family a different way because he or she feels like they were missing something. I'm sure it's a common fear among adoptive parents. But I totally agree with you that education (even the not-so-fun stuff) is necessary. I've been through a lot in 10 years of trying to have a family, so I don't need to read that stuff on blogs...not right now anyway. I'm looking for some books to read on these issues. Any suggestions?

Anyway, no need to publish this if you don't want. I do appreciate your thoughts and thanks so much for taking the time to read.
