What’s the first impression you want to give people?

It is so interesting look back at where I was a year ago with this Daily Prompt reply.

Today, I am moving in the direction of wanting my first impression to be of a quiet, calm, confident woman who radiates a peaceful stillness, deep within.

Maybe – A cool, kind, peaceful, easy-going person.

Or – A relaxed, interesting, creative, funny, got-my-shit-together-mature adult.

But Mostly – An authentic, joyful woman who wears her heart on her sleeve while walking a spiritual path and trying to do the next right thing all mixed in with mood swings and a love of nature, animals, romance and good coffee.

And Finally – The first impression I want to give is – I am one of many complex humans in this world whose inner, deepest desire is to feel truly accepted, loved and nurtured, to feel safe to be my authentic self in this absolutely complex and crazy world.
