Hi Gorgeous!
I just wanted to say that I truly appreciate 2009. I’ve learned so much. I’ve met and connected with so many of you wonderful bloggers and folks online. Coming from a woman who ,for a time in her life, was shy and slightly introverted I must say that I have totally connected with the fact that I thrive and crave interaction with people. It’s been a hoot meeting and corresponding with so many interesting people.
I know that most people are especially reflective around this time, myself included. So here’s my drop on the things that I have gotten out of the year 2009.
WHAT DID I LEARN IN ’09?
To trust and listen to my gut/spirit/intuition.
That I am the only person who can limit myself.

Mistakes are inevitable. Learn from them. Get over them. And move on.
There’s a vast difference between being religious and spiritual. And I choose the latter all day, every day.
Being mentally “free” is so frickin’ awesome!
That I am not responsible for everything.
That I cannot change the fact that some people will always choose to live in the role of “the victim”.
