Why should my identity be defined by a series of numbers and labels, trapped by perceptions of what each one means? Age, weight, title, income, marital status...these are questions on a form, not measures of one's possibilities or potential.
A shift of perspective is needed...new measures of success, such as,
The amount of energy I feel when I treat my body with care
The amount of generosity, patience and understanding I have with others
The amount of positive change I bring to the world through my efforts
The amount of love that I give and receive
The number of happy memories and joyful moments in my life
The number of challenges I"ve overcome and lessons I"ve learned along my path
The amount of gratitude I show for all of the blessings I have been given
These are the true measures of success. With these, I know I am timeless, I am limitless, I am exactly who and where I'm supposed to be.
