I was just updating my About section over on my personal FB page and noticed a new (?) feature called Intro. I actually have no idea how long that has been there. A week? 3 months? 20 minutes? But I digress… Anyway, I was suddenly struck by the way I was labeling myself and realized, Aha! I really do get to say whatever I want to about myself! YES! I define myself to the world, not the other way around. Here’s some of the (awesome!) labels I’ve chosen for myself: Just a little ray of sunshine! Occasional showers with a…

A Love Letter to My Body

October 14, 2015 - By The Blessings Butterfly

Earlier this morning, a lovely meme (Artwork credited to Emily Balivet) popped up in my news feed that made me immediately take notice. It was from a challenge originally posted in the (amazing) Wild Woman Sisterhood‘s Facebook page and it looked like this: I am Intrigued. This idea of loving my body still feels very new and foreign and a tiny bit uncomfortable to me… a.k.a., PERFECT! And so, here it is. A Love Letter to My Body: Dear Body, I hope this isn’t too weird or uncomfortable for you, but I need to tell you a few things today.…

The Twenty-Fourth Blessing: Courage

September 24, 2015 - By The Blessings Butterfly

Blessing #24: I am Courageous “Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.” ― Nora Ephron When I was a child, my mother always used to tell me that I was fearless. I think it really freaked her out, but she also admired that quality in me. My boldness carried over into my teen years, but when I first moved out of the house to try and start my own life, I lost that. Or rather, it was (temporarily) taken from me by the hands of my abuser. There came a point in time when I decided…

The Tenth Blessing: Adventure

September 10, 2015 - By The Blessings Butterfly

Blessing #10: I am Adventurous Last week, I got to ride in a Tesla. My (lucky!) boyfriend even got to drive it! Not only is it a beautiful car inside and out, there is an insane burst of power from the instant acceleration. It feels incredible, much like what I imagine Superman feels when he launches skyward. I am ALWAYS up for a new adventure! Whether it is going on an exotic vacation, or trying out a new restaurant, or challenging myself physically and facing a fear- I’m in. To conquer my fear of heights, I started doing some of…

The Ninth Blessing: Fun!

September 9, 2015 - By The Blessings Butterfly

Blessing #9: I am Fun Close your eyes and think of your most fun-loving friend. Who comes to mind, and what about that person makes them so much fun to be around? What’s fun for me may not be as much fun for you, and vice versa- but so what? Fun comes in all shapes and sizes, and there are a million billion gazillion different ways to have fun! Let’s be honest- life can be pretty hard. To balance things out, we want to cut loose a little when we can. We actually need to take a break from things…
