This week JAMIE wants to know:
Where Do You Wish To Grow Your Confidence?
Here in Florida there is an abundance of fruit trees.
I love the fact that I can go to Grandma's house
and pick as many oranges and grapefruit as I need. There will always be fruit on ground. Some bruised, still green or even rotten. But I don't worry about it. They were not meant to be. The tree is full of luscious fruit waiting for me to enjoy. This is how I would like to view myself and my self esteem figuratively.
Instead of constantly worrying about whether or not I am the perfect mother,wife, sister,friend,aunt, grandma-to-be and writer, (Not to say about constantly wondering if I look too old, too fat, etc...) I would just like to leave the excess baggage on the ground. Be confident in the fact that I am in the here and now.
I have been blessed to BE ME.
And just like Grandma's fruit trees, abundance awaits me.
Would anyone like a glass of fresh, squeezed juice?
Namaste

As Lissa wishes for herself, I wish for her also. I love the imagery you used here. I live in FL too and I always feel a little sad at all the trees with so much fruit and nobody picking it. But now, I think I'll look at it differently and just see the abundance in it all!
The juice is in you. Love yourself. I wish for you your wish too. Namaste.
As Lissa wishes for herself, so I wish for her also! Blessings!
Be right over for that fresh squeezed juice. VERY ENVIOUS!lol
As Lissa wishes for herself, I wish for her also!
Yes. Such a beautiful wish.
As you wish for yourself so I wish for you also
That is such a good wish. It is hard to live in abundance and not operate in scarcity. As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you, too.
as you wish for yourself, I wish for you also

what a gift to be able to pick those beautiful oranges and grapefruits! i saw something interesting this morning...that the best peaches aren't in Georgia and the best citrus isn't in Florida...because they ship the best ones to other places. hmmm...food for thought. :) as you wish for yourself, i wish for you also!
As Lissa wishes for herself, so I wish for her also. My wonderful bloggy friend, you are so awesome to point this out. Love, love, love the analogy.
Lissa,
I love your likeness to an abundant Florida fruit tree! Since there are so few fruit trees left-of course I will delight in a nice glass of juice!
As Lissa wishes for herself, I wish for her also.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog, I'm your newest GFC follow. This is such a beautiful post and so relatable to me. Many blessings!
As Lissa wishes for herself, I wish for her also. Love this wish!
Great analogy! As Lissa wishes for herself, so do I wish for her also!
:) How many women can relate to what you are saying!! Your wish is our wish as well, spoken so beautifully. For me, it's about sinking into a comfortable feeling with all of it...just as it is...without getting lazy or stagnant.
As you wish for yourself, I wholeheartedly wish for you as well.
As you wish for yourself I wish for you also. I understand your thoughts so well and wish you the confidence to step away from the baggage and enjoy being yourself :)
Freshly squeezed, yes abundance waits for us all. As Lissa wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.
