What I have learned today....

I have been pondering over the idea of my own self worth for many weeks now. It all started when I saw Sarah Ferguson on the Oprah show and she asked what self-worth was, this got me to thinking about my own self worth or the lack there of. I have been feeling very worthless of late, my family is going through a tough time financially and because I have been unable to find work I feel like I am part of the problem and not part of the solution. In my last blog I asked if self worth was found by helping others than is my self worth wrapped up in other people. I got great feed back from several people. Ultimately what I am learning is that we all are born "Worthy" and that it is up to us to feel and do things that promote that worthiness. I was watching a show tonight about Oprah and she said " all of life is about growing to your own personal best." As she spoke those words I had an "AH-HA" moment....I will find my self worth when I do what it is that the universe has meant for me to do. I am a firm believer in that there are no accidents, that everything happens for a reason. The events of my life are leading me down a path, and it is that journey that holds my purpose in life. I believe today that I am meant to share my journey with others so that they may find there own strength to do what they must do to make their life better. This is why I have been lead to becoming a counselor, this is my gift to give to others, this is my place of self-worth. There is a flow to the energy of the universe and when I am in sync with what the universe has planned for me that flow feels very natural, when I fight the plan I am out of sync. The universe first speaks to us in a whisper....today I am learning to listen to the whisper so that I don't have to get hit by a brick.
