Lesson 44 & C is for…

Save Me

I am going to combine my weekly lesson with the Alphabet Challenge just to make things easier for me and I’m feeling a bit lazy.

Today’s letter is C and I picked to go with this hair from CaTwA and dressed myself in a top from Cold Logic and pants from Coco.    That’s not all.  I added earrings from Chop Zuey and shoes from Candy Doll.   It was a bit of a struggle to find a pose this time around so I just choose one at random and tweaked it a little with Animare and while it looks like I’m about to jump off a bridge — it’s more like feeling on the edge.  🙂

Yep, I think that completes the letter of the day.

Jumping

Hope this lesson gives you as much thought as it has me.

Lesson 44:  What is Your Story?

Each of us has a story – a personal drama – that’s uniquely ours. Our story is the identity we’ve created that we now believe ourselves to be. Our stories define our limitations, telling us what we can and cannot do; and how much love, success, and happiness we’re entitled to. The stories we tell ourselves about who we are either open us up to new possibilities for happiness and fulfillment or they shut us down. Whenever we’re struggling, or not getting the results we want, we can be certain that we’re living inside a story that doesn’t serve us.

The good news is, you’re not only the star of your drama, you’re the creator of it. If you don’t like what’s showing up on the screen of your life, you’re the one with the power to change it.

Your Self-Love Assignment

1.  Choose an area of your life where you’ve been struggling, where you’re unhappy, or where you feel like you’re not getting your needs met.

2.  Begin to distinguish the story you tell yourself about this part of your life. What role are you playing within this story? Are you the victim? The villain? The damsel in distress?

3.  Next, ask yourself, “What internal or external shift would I have to make in order to become the hero of this story?”

4.  Commit to taking the actions you see.

Self-Love Points Earned

Give yourself 100 points for identifying the role you’ve been playing in the story of your life, and an additional 150 points for shifting your role from victim to hero.

Strolling through Autumn

Sometimes” said Pooh, “The smallest things take up the most room in your heart.”

There are many sims beginning to change into winter scenes as evident by many of the pictures I have seen across the blogesphere or on Flickr.   I guess in many parts of the world it’s starting to turn cold and white, so it’s only natural to begin to see it in-world as well.  In my real life I am happy just to enjoy the windy weather we are having this weekend, even though the air is warm.

As for me in Second Life.  I thought that I would enjoy one more day of these pretty Autumn colors, so I took a stroll through Binemist.   While I didn’t take pictures of the location, it really is a lovely place that I would highly recommend visiting.  It has many spots for photos and the owner allows the rezzing of items for about thirty minutes.
