Love, love, love this!

"What I know for sure is that you have the right to choose what is best for yourself- not four years ago or even yesterday. And changing your mind does not mean acting irresponsibly; it's just the opposite. When you honor what you know your spirit is telling you to do, you are making the most conscientious decision, one for which you are willing to accept all the consequences. You understand that when you know better, you ought to do better- and doing better sometimes means changing your mind; and you realize that letting go for what others think you should do is the only way to reach your full potential....

Everyday passion speaks to us through our feelings. That's why when you allow yourself to become anesthetized by what others think, you literally block yourself from living the life you were called to live.

I promise you that if you make a choice that doesn't please your mate, your friends, your mother, or whoever, the workld will not fall apart- the people who truly love you want you to love yourself. And as your become clearer about who you really are, you'll be better able to decide what is best for you- the first time around."
