Grace Traits: Follow up to Embrace Your Grace
Wednesday, February 18, 2009
So, after a difficult few days with my son, I finally wrote my Grace-Traits. Being creative helps me to sit still with the mess. . . . (see previous post for details):
Cheri's Grace-Traits:
I want to solve the world's puzzles, or at least die trying. . .
I want to eat all the ice cream in the world without worrying about weight. . .
I want to be whole--2 feet on the ground, and I also want to be holy--heart on course with eternity. I don't think I can be one without the other. . .
I want to love my kids in a way that helps them know for sure. . .
I want to be a giving, loving, good wife. . .
I want to be better at receiving, and opening my heart to True Love. . .
I want to give myself permission to embrace the fairytale. . .
I want to forgive. . .
I want to trust myself. . .
I want to live with integrity--what's on the inside reflected on the outside. . .
I want to quit looking for the stoneless road and celebrate, party, laugh, live a life of joy, right in the midst of heartache and pain.
I want to see "40" as a chance to live what I've learned. . .
I want to be dramatic, passionate, creative and bold without apology. . .
I want to find more adventures. . .
I want people to know how amazing they are, even in all their inconsistencies, and complexities and deep-seated insecurities. . .
I want to be amazing too. . .
Embrace your Grace.
