Art of Allowing
Me and The Art of Allowing Fun!
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to color your hair some crazy color just because it would be fun? Or what it would be like to take a day off from work during the middle of the week to do what ever you wanted – shopping, taking a walk in nature, taking a drive in the country, dressing up like a clown, hanging out on Nicollet Mall handing out balloons or whatever would make you smile and feel oh so mischievous. Have you ever had the urge to say something nice to someone – like “Hey, I really like your hand bag” – only to find yourself averting your eyes and trying not to make eye contact as you pass by. Have you ever had the urge to eat a piece of chocolate cake for lunch or ice cream for dinner and ordered a salad instead!
Wouldn’t it be fun to just go ahead allow yourself those crazy little whimsies once in a while. Seriously, what exactly is the harm in eating cake for lunch once in awhile. Wouldn’t it feel great – while your friend is munching on carrots and you’re digging into the most luscious chocolate cake on earth – ohhhh I think that could really be fun.
Actually, I had that experience once, only I was the one eating the carrots as my friend, with a great big smile and pure bliss on her face, enjoyed that chocolate cake to the very last bite! Now, who do you think I really wanted to be in that scenario? Yes, I was silently wishing I had the guts to do ALLOW myself to eat CAKE for LUNCH! “Can you believe, in your wildest dreams someone would actually do that” – I was saying to myself on one hand and on the other saying “yes, yes, yes – I wish it was me!” For the record, no she doesn’t eat chocolate cake for lunch as a regular gig. However, on this particular day that’s what she wanted and she went for it! I say bravo to her.
My point in all of this: you really can have your cake and eat it too – if you ALLOW yourself to. Therein lays the art of allowing.
I proclaim the year 2010 to be the year of ALLOWING.
- Life to work in my favor
- Myself to have chocolate cake if I want it.
- Myself to color my hair just because it’s fun.
- Smile and wave at people I don’t even know.
- Actually saying those nice things I think in my head and while making eye contact!
- Allowing my body to take care of me in the innate way it knows best – I’ll just get out of the way and allow it to do it’s job.
- Allowing myself to have the life of my dreams.
- To play, laugh and experience more
- To dream more
- To ENJOY life!
Onward with the life of ALLOWING – sounds like fun – don’t you think? What are you allowing in your life?
