Yesterday my husband, TD, and I enjoyed a relaxed birthday brunch at a small restaurant I wanted to try. I  like trying new places to eat and I trusted that it would be just right. We went to  Arize Breakfast Cafe in the Camp Creek Marketplace, in case someone in the Atlanta area is interested. It was just right. I enjoyed my chocolate chip pancakes, scrambled eggs with turkey sausage and delicious coffee. TD had a Jamaican omelette and enjoyed it as well. o :)



Last week I mentioned making peace with decisions about what I choose to do in my life. Last year I lost an earring TD bought me for our first anniversary gift and I've wanted to replace it. I really want to find an infinity necklace as the replacement. We stopped by a jewelry store and nothing really spoke to me there. The ladies in the store were starting to get a bit aggressive about me having to find something for my birthday, so we left. I chose to leave and to trust I didn't "need" to get something just because it was my birthday.



As we were driving to another place to see what we could find, the rain was pounding down and the traffic was increasing. This was not what I wanted to do next. It's my birthday so I said, "let's go see Black Panther"... so we did.



As humans, we have the power of choice. We get to decide what we want to do. Every moment of every day I get to decide how I want to live my life, on my birthday or any day. I was able to spend time with TD, enjoy chocolate chip pancakes at a new place, revel in the amazing images of Black Panther and then I relax with Dr.  Teals... in an epsom salt bath. So my birthday was just right. I'll find the "just right" infinity necklace when the time is right.



Last week was a great week to create, I created Body Appreciation affirmations which will be available as a stand alone track and part of an upcoming online audio program. I am grateful to have people in the Patreon community who listen as I create my meditations/affirmations and share their thoughts. If that is something you are interested in doing, consider checking out my Encouraging PIP membership. If you are regularly joining our Wednesday night LIVE sessions the Dedicated PIP membership would be a cost saving for you are automatically registered and sent the links.



Patreon is an online portal where share more of my personal musings, behind the scenes and practices in it is a  paid membership community, you can find out more here.



As I reflected over my birthday weekend, I pulled a card for you from my card deck, Relax, Listen, and Trust Your Inner Guidance.



The card I pulled for this mailing list in the moment...#5 - TRUST- I speak KIND and LOVING words about myself.  Be kind to YOU today and always.



Let me know if this card resonated with you as well, barbarafaisonllc@gmail.com.
