I sat myself down almost a year ago and had a real heart to heart. I said, "self, you have different goals than the direction you are headed." So I stopped, did a 180 degree turn and moved forward with vigor and vim. It was amazing! I reduced over 30 lbs. Only to give up on myself and gave in to lesser urges of instant gratification. Within a matter of months I was back to my old weight! I applaud myself for being able to stay on course for that long. But once you go forward there is not going back! The things we idealize get easily moved past.
So recently I've had a heart to head talk with myself. Someone is starting to make sense here! I don't know how much I can be worried about this meeting of the body parts and organs of my beingness.
But Hmmm.. damn old habits die hard. And the reasons why we do things go away. But the same poor outcomes exist.
So most recently I sat down and had a heart to head to gut talk with myself. And there I found unextinguishable truth. There's no turning back now. I do otherwise is a betrayal of self and I refuse to play that role.
We are in agreement of what is best and now may the stronger voice of reason prevail.
