Woman

One of the best paragraphs I've read in a long time.  I know that goop can polarise the masses but it often raises some worthy topics.  I just loved this article.

"Every woman needs to work on her own playing big, and that doesn’t mean simply her ego’s ambitions but rather a pursuit of her heartfelt dreams for her life and her real passions. When she’s given herself full permission to do that, to work on becoming the woman she longs to be, when she’s respecting her own dreams, she can be supportive of other women doing so, too.
When you feel jealous of other women, find yourself gossiping, or wanting to take away from another woman’s success, ask yourself, “Where have I gone astray from allowing and pursuing my own aspirations and what do I need to do to get back on my own side?” It’s about you and your path. It’s not about her."

"Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomorrow is ours to win or lose." ~ Lyndon B. Johnson

Life is beginning to gain a sense of order again.  January has come and gone and February is filled with the return of activities and many social events.  I have been struggling with a sore wrist for nearly 3 years now, but I am happy to report that it has improved significantly.  It's 80% better than it was 3 months ago and I am itching to get back to rekindling my love of exercise.  I'm longing to be strong enough to do a burpee again.  

Summer weather is nowhere to be seen and today was yet another cold and wet day.  I haven't changed out of my pyjamas, instead I cancelled all my plans, did some cleaning, danced around and acted crazy with my little girl and cooked.
