I feel like I have been pretty clear on the values I want to embody since I was young. Part of that was reading a lot and learning how I wanted to show up based on characters that I admired. I was always drawn to folks that were honest and fair and helpful.
I also value curiosity and innovation and discipline.
As my ideal self, there is a sweet spot that hovers in the midst of unplanned flow and structure. I sometimes wonder if this is a distinction between allowing God to operate freely through me and my ego (or logical mind) thinking that I know what to do.
Maybe that is part of the game of life and part of the fun in playing it?
I do feel like my ideal self would flow effortlessly between the various aspects of life, managing it all with the precision of movement displayed in the cosmos. That feels like she would value full presence in each moment.
I guess that means I have work to do. 🙂
