Let’s take a deeper look at why people love that e-mail
and why I love my cellulite!
I think it’s because I’m taking my worst dirty laundry…
the thing that I absolutely shouldn’t expose…
…that is totally crazy to actually “air out” in the open…
…and instead, letting it rip.
It’s like when we’re just about to do The Work on something
with a partner, and get that sneaky little thought:
“Oh God, I don’t want to do THAT ONE.”
And an image pops up or flashes by of some shame or embarrassment.
But it’s not just an image of a “little” discomfort.
It’s that really DEEP, squirming, body-clenching, sweat-producing
flush of humiliation…even if it’s just for a millisecond and
you can shove it back down really fast.
Where you REALLY want to curl up in a ball and hide from
the world and from yourself (question #3, of course!).
And you actually toy with the idea of NOT doing that thought…
yet want to…yet don’t want to…but do…and we can confuse
ourselves right out of it.
But on the other side, there’s a wisdom within that can sense the
freedom of opening to the “worst” fears and hiding and embarrassment.
It’s just the slightest undercurrent of excitement because it’s so
radically crazy to actually DO IT!
To JUMP!
It’s the thrill of no-hands on the roller coaster’s straight down climax!
Woooosssshhhhh!
So…is it fear or excitement…that peeking between your fingers in the movie?
It’s worth a closer look.
Wishing you the exhilaration of going for some of those
really juicy, horribly squirmy ones.
Like my wonderfully precious, out-in-the-open, hideous cellulite.
Love and jiggles,
Grace
