Today’s adventure takes us to a time when I first started showing up at family gatherings draped in glitter and rainbows, ready to face whatever came my way—like a toddler boldly sporting a Superhero onesie. Buckle up for a journey filled with color, courage, and a lesson in the dance of boundaries.
Imagine this…
Younger me, full of sparkle and embracing every color of the rainbow, strutting into family gatherings like a runway. I was on a mission to be as authentic as a toddler proudly wearing a superhero suit. The glitter was my armor, and I was daring anyone to question my newfound sense of self.
Just like a fearless toddler rocking a Superhero onesie, I reveled in being me – glitter, rainbows, and all. It was more than just a fashion statement; it was a declaration of self-discovery and a bold move to embrace every part of who I was. Of course, with bold choices come moments of uncertainty and, yes, a fair share of raised eyebrows.
Amidst the sparkle and rainbow confetti, I learned a crucial lesson about boundaries – respect works both ways. While I expected everyone to embrace my glittery authenticity, I had to grasp the concept of respecting their boundaries too. It wasn’t about toning down my glitter but understanding that others might have their comfort zones, and that’s totally cool.
As we dive into the holiday season, with boundaries as our theme, let’s remember this fabulous truth: the path to harmony involves a mutual dance of respect. If we want our boundaries to be honored, we’ve got to extend the same courtesy to others. It’s like a festive dance floor where everyone gets to express themselves authentically without stepping on anyone else’s twinkle toes.
So, my beautiful Jedi, as you gear up for the festivities ahead before you channel your inner toddler in the Superhero onesie look to see if you are respecting the dance around you. Honor the boundaries of those glittering beside you, just as you hope yours will be respected.
May you feel the presence of the Force for the Force is Always With You.
