Try something new

I tend to do things out of habit, like most I do not like to do or try anything new. It makes me uncomfortable and out of sorts. If you know me than you know how important it is for me to feel safe. New places & people tend to give me anxiety. For the most part I can hide this from others. The powers that be have decided that its time for me to grow so I have been pushed and when I say pushed, I mean pushed to do and try new things. Have I gone skydiving or bungee jumping, hell no. I have taken smaller steps like; tasting  Mexican hot candy, it about killed me. Thai & Indian food, I am a "no spice" kind of girl so, I know now not to eat them ever again, if I do it will be the coconut soup or flat bread.  Outside of food I have walked along the path behind my house (this scares the crap out of me), I am getting better about it. I know you shouldn't be afraid to walk behind your own house, I have said as much to myself on many occasion's. To help me feel better I have created a way for me to feel safe while I am walking so I can do so without panicking. Other things I have done are; drove a different way home ( not by choice, road construction caused many detours. I am counting it though), started a water zumba class and exercising at the local recreation center. By doing all these I feel I am becoming more confident in myself and knowing what I do and do not like. I encourage you to try something new. You may be surprised.

I Surrender & Trust.

Guidance for today is: Be Confident (hmmm weird), Be Brave, Maintain your Vision
