Twenty-ten, the year of a sensuous You!
It’s January. Perhaps you can relate to my girlfriends who are telling me things like “I have a muffin top waistline from too many Christmas goodies” “I know too many weeks pass between the times my husband and I make love but I'm not sure what to do about it.” “I spent too much to make the Christmas extra special for my kids and now money is tight and so are my jeans” “I hate January cause I feel so tired from the Holiday rush and I feel guilty about resolutions” If you’re like a lot of women I know, January can make you feel more than a little overwhelmed. Maybe the topic of sensuousnews causes thoughts like these to run through your head: “And now Miss Girl here wants to tell me how to be more sensuous. One more shortcoming to work on.”
Oh lovely tired woman.
Sit down here on the sofa next to me and let me tell you something.
The lovely beginning of this journey starts with--oh shoot, lemme let Sara Groves say it cause she says it so fabulously already.
Listen to this, dear ones: (and when Sara says ‘a person’ put your name there instead. I’ll do my friend Cori’s name as an example)
Lovin’ Cori just the way they are, it’s no small thing.
It takes some time to see things through.
Sometimes things change, sometimes we’re waiting.
We need grace either way.
Hold on to me
and I’ll hold on to you
Let’s find out
the beauty of seeing things through.
There’s a lot of pain in reachin’ out and tryin’
it’s a vulnerable place to be
Love and pride can’t occupy the same spaces, baby
and only one makes you free.
Hold on to me
and I’ll hold on to you
Let’s find out
the beauty of seeing things through.
If we go lookin’ for offense,
we’re gonna find it.
If we go lookin’ for real love,
we’re gonna find it.
Hold on to me
and I’ll hold on to you
Let’s find out
the beauty of seeing things through.
Lovin’ Cori just the way they are, it’s no small thing.
That’s the whole thing.
Lovin’ me just the way I am, it’s no small thing.
Takes some time, takes some time, takes some time, takes some time.
Loving yourself right where you are. That’s the first step. I believe deep down in my heart that 2010 is your year of a sensuous you. I really truly believe that a series of tiny sensuous miracles will happen for you this year. Being a sensuous you is not a destination. It’s a journey. We’ll go there together. Hold on to me, and I’ll hold on to you. Let’s find out the beauty of seeing things through.

Great uplifting post. Loving a Person is one of my favorite songs, it was like seeing an old friend~ Receiving love is what fills us enough to give it. Thanks. Please post more!
