The Old Song and Dance

"Have you learned your very own song and dance?"

I once heard a speaker ask that question and at first I thought it was funny. Imagining myself singing and dancing brought giggles to my lips. I can carry a tune and maybe dance a wild waltz but to do them at the same time would take more talent than I have in that department.

After I thought about what he said, I realized he wanted us to see ourselves as the unique person we are. No one else can sing our song or dance our dance. If we do not learn it ourselves, it is lost, forever.

Learning ourselves may be the hardest feat we face as adults. No one lies to us more than we lie to ourselves. No one hurts us more than we hurt ourselves. How many times have you stood in front of a mirror and said, "I look awful", when in your heart you know you do not. Or how many times have you let yourself take the blame for something going wrong, when you know you have done your best?

When we tell ourselves things like that we are letting someone else write our song and maybe even sing it too. Take the time to write your song, learn it well, then sing it from the roof tops. You are well worth it.

Returns

I have gotten such great mail on the "Getting a Second Date" post that I am thinking about turning it into a short ebook by adding more helpful tips for the dater. I'll keep you up on it's progress and publishing date.

It's it funny that a subject someone would think is so simple, could make a large impact on others?

I think it might be a case of what is one persons trash being a treasure to another. We all have something of value to pass on, we just need to find it and get to passing!

Wishing all of you a day with rainbows and treasures.
