Be
My wish for you this year is that the one resolution you will really keep, even more than your diet, is to be true to yourself.
And if you have a daughter, help and encourage her to be true to herself.
I wrote THE TRUTH: I'm a Girl, I'm Smart and I Know Everything to help girls and their moms break through some of the social and emotional vices that have plagued women for centuries. It is easy for us to loose some of the best of ourselves. We have to always be vigilant. We give so much of ourselves, but not always do we give enough to ourselves.
The biggest gift a ten year old can receive from you is the sense that she is amazing. She is gifted, smart, funny, wise, inventive, capable and simply wonderful.
And the biggest gift you can give to yourself is permission
to get back to the energy inside of yourself that is just as marvelous. You will find yourself living out a true
recipe for happiness.
May you and your daughter(s) be blessed in 2009 in truly seeing and loving the best in yourselves.
