Day one of admitting I am in fact a superstar of the human race has been a bit mundane.
The fullness and closeness of the moon makes me feel I should embrace my ancestoral wiccan roots and do something. But what?
Light a candle? Say a prayer? Dance in my backyard naked?
Would the dancing still count if I covered myself in bug repellent?
The children are bored being home. Some of them at least.
I am happy to be back and have already made preliminary plans for a rather large change. This I will get to later as to not want to ruin any chances. Superstitous I know. Maybe it's the moon.
Tonight I begin to toss away the literal baggage. I have two exceedingly large trash cans and I plan on going through my closet and tossing with abandon. (Yes I will donate). Toss away the clothes my body has not donned in over 8 months. Goodbye useless space taking threads.
Change begins within. My within no longer wants to hold on to "Promise Clothes"
I Promise I will fit into that dress by summer. I Promise those shoes will get worn. I promise to wear that tankini again and not frighten small children out of the water.
Goodbye false promises.
Here is what I promise, when (not if) I am able to wear with pride a tankini I will treat myself and buy a new one.
One more child is moving out and my house will grow larger as my family grows smaller.
I will make my plans to achieve my goals. And because I am a rockstar of the human race I will make them all happen.
It is about time I realize my worth. Stand up and speak. Say "No More clothes that no longer fit staring at me whenever I slide my closet doors open!"
One small step to being the rockstar I am inside.
(as a note, I have no desire to actually BE a rockstar. I can't sing, and play no instruments. The term is simply meant to reflect that I need to embrace my successes in life, rather wallow in the failures.)
