Integrity...

          Lunch out, alone…time to reflect and enjoy simple pleasures. Interesting how easy it is to enjoy and to be relaxed when we allow ourselves to slow down and simply be….
                 Wondering if peace of mind and integrity occur when we give ourselves permission:

---to just be ourselves rather than what we think others want us to be

---to be aware of all that our senses can take in, gradually shifting focus
    from one sense to another

---to be accepting of where we are right now and only then decide what 
    changes might need to be made

---to be free to choose; to be response-able

---to trust ourselves

---to continue to learn and grow

---to be able to see beyond our own agendas and read the stories
    in the hearts of those around us

---to be free to listen with genuine interest

---to be honest with ourselves and others

---to be thoughtful and kind…………
