(Written in January 2010)
Barbara suggested I write a set of affirmations and go through them every day. I realize that I always think of affirmations as being for the purpose of changing something, but they could also be true statements of positive things I know about myself.
I am committed to making the world a better place
My vision includes everything from the farthest galaxies to blue-green algae.
I love the Earth and all the beings she carries
I do my best to live in a way that’s sustainable
I am compassionate, especially when I see someone having a bad time
I am very intelligent
I give generously to causes I believe in
I built and endowed Neskaya, a place where many people have had positive and healing experiences
I work hard to heal the wounds from my childhood
(Elizabeth thought these were very solemn, and suggested some that are more fun)
I’m a good story-teller
Elizabeth loves me
I am creative
I am exuberant, outrageous and fun
