"I am the feelings of abundance and satisfaction that come after hard
work. I am pleased with my efforts to make my dreams come true, and want
to share my success with others. I also want them to enjoy my sense of
fulfillment. Having finished my grieving, I am once again ready to bloom
with joy and confidence.
"Lately I've been remembering experiences from my past. I'm beginning to
understand how they have shaped my character. Some are satisfying simply
to remember. Others have new meaning for me now that I'm an adult whose
perspective is tempered by the experiences of intervening years.
"I encourage you to think about how much you may still operate under
influences of the past. Accept your experiences as steppingstones toward
acquiring new insights and wisdom. Take time to smell the flowers and
attend to the needs of your inner child.
"My key phrase is
using memories and feelings creatively."
