What are your dreams? What would be your perfect job, hobby, travel destination, adventure? What’s your plan for achieving, visiting, DOING something to get you closer to your dreams?
I’m a big “accept things or do something about them” kind of girl. I don’t know where it came from, but I’m not one for accepting excuses of myself or others. If you’re really passionate about it, GO FOR IT! I do understand, all too well, that there are situations beyond our grasp that limit us somehow. Income, insurance, insecurity … bunches of things impact our path towards our passions.
Regardless of reality, I feel it part of our ‘jobs’ as girlfriends to encourage our friends to reach their dreams. Actually friendship is a powerful thing. We’re in the role of influencing another person and in assisting them in becoming their true self and reaching the little and big dreams that make us/them happy, proud, fulfilled.
The podcast with CAPITOLA GIRL, Susan, took on the subject of following your bliss. Susan is reaching for her dreams and not letting anything stop her. She recognizes that living this creative, inspiring, supportive life is her journey to becoming the truest version of herself.
Now, for TIP TUESDAY, it is YOUR turn. This week’s TIP TUESDAY question:
My bliss, as you’ve probably gathered from Girlfriendology, is inspiring women to foster female friendship. I believe it is a worthy goal to build community among women and celebrate girlfriendship. I believe it will make a difference in our health, happiness, lifespan and make us better mothers, sisters, employees/bosses, friends, wives, partners, volunteers, etc. Lofty goal? Maybe too big? Perhaps. But I believe there is a real power among women that we build through community with each other and I’m put here to help make it happen – in whatever little or big way I can.
So, I spilled my guts (-; share YOUR dreams! What would it mean for YOU to follow your bliss? Share and inspire others!
p.s. And do listen into CAPITOLA GIRL’s podcast interview below! She’ll inspire you. And you never know where that inspiration will lead!
Funny … I’ve been wanting to do this for a couple years and finally started to take actual steps toward it last week when I met with a girlfriend to discuss a plan. (Thanks Cyndi!) Then, as often happens in life – the timing was eerie as I was inspired by the Martin Luther King video of his “I have a dream” speech and a speaker that challenged me to go after my dreams.
So, with admiration of Dr. King, my dream is to start a community of women who can connect, share, inspire, motivate and laugh together. Girlfriendology.com is coming soon (the trademark is in process!) and I’m moving forward on this without knowing how it all will happen. I just know that is has to happen.
My girlfriends let me cry and make me laugh. You accept me no matter what size I wear or if I have spinach in my teeth! You amazing women are the constant cheerleaders who I know are there no matter what. You bless my life each day with your emails, calls and just knowing that the next time I see you, will be just like it was yesterday and we’ll laugh together just as easily.
So, I ask for your emotional support, creative ideas and wonderful sense of humor! And, if you’d like you share your dreams and any recommendations on how Girlfriendology.com can grow, please share!
Thanks again for being my favorite female friends and inspiration for my dream!
