I’ve been contemplating self-love this month, not just on the traditional day of love (Valentine's Day) for which this month is known. I always do something nice for myself each year in honor of the day, but I also do nice things all year long whenever the mood strikes me.
One of the questions flowing across my consciousness is how these acts of self-love come together into a greater whole that nourishes me throughout the year. Not just these one-off acts of doing something nice just to be doing it for the holidays.
Since I am good at seeing the whole picture regarding things like this, the question came naturally.
As perfect timing would have it, a class became available that would assist me in enhancing a skill I was already interested in and actively involved in from time to time. I am first and foremost doing it for fun and because it’s been a while since I created this way.
While this is going on, I am also expanding my coaching (which feels as if it’s evolving into something else) and other ways of generating income that align with my natural talents, gifts, and abilities.
I’ve expanded on what I know about myself this year, which honestly surprises and delights me every time it happens. It’s the type of thing that really makes life worth living. It adds to the “juiciness” of living, if you will.
I am looking forward to the rest of 2025. It’s been an interesting year so far.
