Say "Hi" to Life :) **Slightly long - but i am taking a break till 9th so see u on 10th - you can read this one at least thrice

Friends - we have read in the past 3 days - how  life can be enjoyed and it can be simple. I am sure after going thru and practicing all these six things - you will ask yourself:


I am so happy and thankful to live the life I do! Why did it take me so long to simply say "Hi" to myself??

In past 3 days you have read about:

1- Welcome Life
Stop/reduce focusing on outwardly, worried, anxious and fearful of myself and the world. 

2- Just do it 
If there is something, no matter how simple, you have always wanted to do but haven’t yet - Just do it!! ...and it will happen 

3- Be Real!! 
The only basis for true relationships is your reality.

Now 3 more principles...

4- Adventure & Discovery!!
Life is one great big adventure and there is so much to discover about life, people, places, ourselves and the world we live in. Step outside, even just a little, the comfort zone, the routine of daily life and go on a little adventure to discover something new. This could be anything; talking to a stranger, taking an alternate route or mode of transport to work, trying a different type of food or hobby.

It can be so easy to get stuck in our ways to decide this is how things are, this is what I like, these are my friends, this is my job, this is how I relax, and this is what I like to do. But there are so many experiences big and small out there to discover. Go on a little adventure today and see what can be found : )

5- Love Yourself!!

Love in its purity is a very simple and very strong emotion. Unconditional Love is real - simply love; an unwavering acceptance of someone or something for who or what they truly are. And shared love is to find peace and acceptance and deep rest in the ones we love.

But most important is to love one ’s self - let go of all the doubts and expectations and ideas we harbor inside and to step back and embrace an unwavering acceptance for whom we are. Than we may experience that true rest and peace we find in the company of shared love, within ourselves.


6- Find your own way!!
All of us are different and amazingly so. Each person is filled with experiences and dreams and ideas and passions that are unique and exceptional. Embrace life and find your own way; by being true to yourself and the things that are real and important to you. Compromises are part of life and one of the blessings of a shared existence so be prepared to make a few but keep an eye out for the opportunities to really dive in.

I am learning to step out of my rut and place my feet firmly on a path that each day I can walk upon confidently and honestly. By making choices that reflect my true self and living a life that I believe in I am finding my way back into life and embracing all it has to offer.
 

I am so happy and thankful to live the life I do! Why did it take me so long to simply say "Hi" to myself??

Hi :)
