Make Love Monday #12

Make Love Monday -- a mission to create a more loving world by being aware of how we interact with each other and choosing connection. Choose to connect with the offered practice sometime during the week and report back on how it goes.

This one is kind of tricky but can be very effective for opening our hearts and expanding our brightness in this world. It's tricky because it can feel uncomfortable at times to do this, but I find it very very important.
Today's MLM is to:
Brag about Yourself

Do it with a friend to listen and then switch and let your friend brag back to you. I know, bragging sounds a little crazy. How is that going to make the world a better place, you ask? Well, my feeling is that we keep our accomplishments on the DL and then complain at a high volume quite often. What this does is keep us in a routine of complaint and diminishing ourselves. Instead, if we could each have at least one person where we could talk about how proud of ourselves we are, how amazed and happy we are about any accomplishment (emotional and spiritual ones too) it would brighten the day and the light we are able to share.
It's great to find a friend to do this with because then your friend gets the turn to be happy and proud of herself as well. It's important to do that for yourself, OFTEN.
You are awesome, your friend is awesome... there is plenty of awesome to go around. Let's start talking about THAT and see how much better we feel and brighter the world seems.
I challenge you to start right here (or on my FB page) leave a comment and let me know one thing you're proud of yourself for in the last week, month, year... your whole life. Go for it my friends... I"ll be cheering you on!!
