I Give Myself Permission...

Hola Gorgeous Hippie Goddesses!!!

I am writing myself a permission slip. There are so many things that I am holding back on for no good reason. It is time to start doing the things in life that I want to do without worrying about what other people think. I know I seem like an apathetic person sometimes but it is just inevitable that I care a little bit about what people say and think.

I give myself permission to be who I really am, with no doubts or hesitations. I give myself permission to dress however makes me feel beautiful even if it is what some would call odd or ugly, if I feel beautiful that is all that matters. I can make a decision and then change my mind, and then change it again. I can be spontaneous and flirtatious and crazy and flighty. I can move and dance and sing without any thought as to who is watching. I can open my heart to other people and feel vulnerable, I can get hurt, but I can also pick myself up off the ground and try again. I can follow my dreams, even if there isn't a soul who understands them other then me. I can laugh and cry and scream all in the same sentence and act like nothing happened a split second later. I give myself permission to smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol and smoke weed, just because it makes me happy and I can, but I also give myself permission to stop smoking and drinking when it has become too much and my body says no more. I give myself permission to eat foods that my body asks for and also to give in to my cravings occasionally.
I can go out everyday for months at a time, but can also say no and stay home for an evening in and some sleep. I can go out and shop till I drop but I can also say no to another ring and save my money. I give myself permission to take risks and to learn new things. I can remove myself from a situation that I am not comfortable with. I can write a permission slip to myself that is completely incoherent and out of order and love it just the same. I can look in the mirror everyday and tell myself that I am a beautiful and kind person...and I can believe it.
I give myself permission to nurture the relationships that mean the most to me and to also distance myself from the relationships that are soul sucking. I can explore and create and learn and live and love all without fear of rejection because rejection is just another obstacle.
I can get inked and pierced in any way that I desire, this is my body and I love it. I give myself permission to try new things and to suck at them. I can write and write and write and not get published as long as I keep doing it and doing it everyday until I die. I can stay in bed all day and read a book without any guilt of a wasted day.
Most importantly I give myself permission to love myself and to put my life and happiness before everything else. All that matters is right now and I sure as hell want to be happy!!!

What do you give yourself permission for??
