RAPUNZEL MOMENT


WE all need a RAPUNZEL moment!!!  That moment where we realize that EXTRA something about US that has always been there.  That extra something that  just needed a little more life experience, maybe knowledge, and confidence to be discovered.   Being a prisoner, Rapunzel was able to feel she was meant to be more, yet she could not discover her true self until she was out from under her captor' s tower.   We, like Rapunzel, cannot become who we are meant to be when we let worldly "captors" appetites, addictions, and behaviors control us.    Someone once told me Victor Frankel said this quote, but I can not find it if he did. . . "There are some things about ourselves we just don't have to put up with anymore."  The greatest gift we have as human beings is AGENCY-- the power to choose.  May we find JOY in this wonderful gift  as we do the things we DON'T want to do, but CHOOSE to do because we are better for it.  May we use this GIFT wisely as we strive daily to become  our best selves!!!!    The SELF we ARE MEANT to be:)
