There I was in downward facing dog, and there they were, looking like two slices of sandwich bread … and not the Texas toast kind, either.
I tried to imagine what my future lover would be feeling if we found ourselves in this position … other than the obvious .. like a lucky mofo. 😉
I reached into my top and squeezed one.
A giggle escaped my lips as I reached over to give my other breast a squeeze.
My current 32deflatedB cup felt VERY different to my previous 32veryfullDD cup. I giggled again as I stared down at them between my extended arms.
And then, the reality of the situation hit me – I had worried about what the psychological ramifications might be, but there haven’t been any.
I don’t wear padded bras, I still wear form-fitting shirts and my posture is gold-sticker worthy. In fact, I marvel at my reflection.
It turns out, somewhere along the way, that insecure woman remembered that her worth was not defined by anyone else’s opinion.
It’s been over a year since I had my breast implants removed and I feel FAB-U-LOUS.
And to think that I almost didn’t go through with it because of all the what if’s you can imagine were going through my head. But I knew that I couldn’t make the decision being the same person who got them in the first place. The decision needed to be made from the me I said I wanted to be … comfortable and confident in her own skin.
The level of aliveness I feel is indescribable.
This takes us to your life …
*gets on a soapbox with a megaphone*
YOUR! LIFE!
Are you living it?
Like, REEEALLY, living it?
We’re talking about actually living your mother-loving life like you mean it.
None of this tomorrow I’m going to start/stop X …
No more someday I’m going to (insert whatever it is you’ve been wanting to do)…
What habits, behaviours, patterns, people, and things do you need to let go of?
What habits/behaviours, people, things, and experiences do you want to have in your life?
☝️ ☝️ ☝️ ☝️ ☝️
Lock into that, and then from that place, let that guide you to what actions you take and what decisions/choices you make.
When you begin to make decisions from THAT place *takes sip from coffee cup*. psshhhhh, gurrrrl … you’re going to wonder what the eff took you so long to join the party.
Please … pleeeeeeeeeze … make today the day you say “f*ck it” and decide to go all-in on your life.
