Those who truly love and respect you will respect your boundaries. I think freeing oneself from codependency and fear is vital for well-being.

I stay balanced by remembering to prioritize. What is most important should never be railroaded by the "tyranny of the urgent."

A good smell puts me in a great mood and even inspires my creativity.

Beauty inspires me - beauty in nature, people, and art. Smells and fragrances too. I know it sounds weird, but I'm a "fume head." I'm very olfactory-driven.

My children inspire me with their innocence and enormous capacity to love.

Understanding what you're OK with and what you're not OK with is so important to learn.
