| 2 wonderful sisters who aren't afraid to be themselves |
This post is for my mom and for my aunt. I grew up in a
family of nonconformists. We are all unique and we thrive on that. Not quite fitting
in is a badge of honor in some ways.
I’m telling you this because I also come from a very happy
family. I mean seriously. They all are really funny, love to play and don’t
worry too much about what other people think.
We have each other and that’s enough. We don’t need outside approval.
We all know to not worry about what other people think.
Either they will like us as we are, or they won’t. And if they don’t, so what.
As long as a few people like me the way I am, I’m set.
This is the key to being fearless and something that I wrote about in my book on how to deal with bullies (TheBullyVaccine.com) But telling you all to be fearless isn’t exactly the primary reason for this post. The real reason is because my mom wanted me to do a post that included a song I wrote for my Aunt Lana for her 50th birthday. The song is called Ode to Lana and yes, she was delighted and laughed hysterically at it. She’s a wonderful woman, laughs, loves and lives fully and is the biggest Beethoven freak you will ever meet.
