No More Limits #5

Hey You,

The girl with the cute Tshirt dress and espadrilles who grabbed a microphone in front of a room of 70 or so people last night and didn't think twice about it.

When did you get so comfortable in your skin? When did you learn to laugh and relax in a crowd? When did you learn to act silly and carry on just a little, flitting around the room ... making eye contact and sharing smiles?

What's clear to me is that the unsure, uncomfortable woman who used to worry endlessly that someone might notice all that was "wrong" with her is now out there in front, not minding a bit when a cute, old man notices what's "right" with her on the outside ... because she is confident in the work she has put in to make sure everything is "right" on the inside.

Go on wit' cher bad self, sistah.

Oh, and "Put your money up," right GAF?

Right!

And I think a microphone should be on your next list of favorite things! ;)

Were you doing karoke again at the retirement village? Just kidding! Good for you and I only wish I was there. She has always been in there and those of us that knew ya way back in the day, know that person. Glad she is back!

Karoke? NEVER!!! Deliver a monologue? MC an event? Host a telethon? I'm TOTALLY in!
