I’m reading Caroline Myss’ book Invisible Acts of Power. She quotes Marian Wright Edelman, ” Service is the rent we pay to be living. It is the very purpose of life and not something you do in your spare time.” I have always said to our 8 Weeks to Wellness patients that by getting healthy physically, emotionally, spiritually and nutritionally, you are able to serve more. Life is so so so so much more enjoyable when you learn to become less selfish and more self’less’. And believe it or not when you are unhealthy by YOUR OWN choices, you are selfish. Being selfless rather than selfish means that you aren’t thinking less of yourself but rather your are thinking about yourself less often. Have a wonderful Friday and weekend.
