Falling in Self Love: Day 138
Dance Little Sister

"Give up the ghost that's haunting you now."  My brother had really bad asthma his entire life.  I never had it except for one other time (years ago). This morning I woke up coughing which turned into asthma attack #2.  After using an inhaler my bones hurt. When I finally fell back to sleep I had two nightmares about death.  OK God, I'm listening....

The first line of this song is so fitting!! My brother died 16 days after his 38th birthday. That is TODAY for me. The last few weeks have been quite interesting.  For the past 3 years I have been living in the shadow of his death, feeling like I had to do well because I was been spared (yet again) and given the gift of life.   Now, I want to LIVE for ME!  I want to dream wildly and act accordingly!



I just finished teaching my students and class was wonderful!  I LOVE my job!  I love that we are creating a positive ripple effect in the community!  I WANT TO DO MORE!  I feel inspired, impassioned READY for what's next!
