For my 50th birthday, my nieces gave me a CD by Tim McGrawentitled Live Like You Were Dying. They paid me a wonderfulcompliment and said, "Aunt Tami, you're the one we think of whois living like you were dying." What a powerful message to me asI blast that song every morning to rev up my energy. Of course,picturing Tim in those tight jeans helps!
Remember I used to live in such deep doo doo with fear andworry. Through daily practice my connection to God becomesclearer--it's corrosion free. It takes practice to transcendfear and putting those daily activities in place to help bringin the positives. Want to have some fun with your inner child?Sticking your tongue out at fear does help. So let's practice.Stick out your tongue and face your fears and shout, "You're notthe boss of me." It's kind of hard to have your tongue hangingout while talking but it sure feels good, doesn't it?
