Inner conversation

Heidi,
What a perfect day to play in the rain! As a child you loved jumping in puddles and getting muddy. My desire for sending you this song is that you find the music playful and it encourages a smile on your face or rhythm to your day. Its not a message for Africa as we both know I don't have insight or a base of knowledge for that. What I do have is joy to pass on the perspective of a light heart. Remember what Professor Rosch said about experiencing the life you have through a joyful heart. No physical change is necessary just an attitude adjustment.
Stop taking yourself so seriously.
Remember when you were a teenager and Mom would wake you up? You'd come down stairs and be in a foul mood because you'd stayed up to late talking on the phone. She would engage you in conversation... you would look at her and have fire and disgust and just a down right bad attitude. What would she say? "Heidi, go back to your bed and get up on the right side. You need an attitude adjustment!" You knew she was right. Stomping all the way back to your room. Well this is one of those moments. You are your own guide now. You're sick of studying this same material, you think its unfair, you feel disappointed at the results of the last test and I can feel you're about to throw yourself a fit and on and on your complaints go. Stop! Breathe! Be easy! Yes... some adults do still throw fits but, that doesn't change the outcome. A year from now it will all be in the past. Can you think of a year ago and what was going on then. Yet here you are placing one foot in front of the other just like everyone else. Instead be grateful for the opportunity, turn up the joy! Go play in the rain. Sing out loud. Dance like a fool.
Remember I love you. Always.
Heidi
