Everyday Brags

It is our hopes that through bragging you will expand your capacity to hold Joy for longer periods of time. We hope that you will take the time to reflect and integrate the magnificence of YOU and all of your creations. We hope that as you share and read others' brags, that you will be inspired by the everyday magic all around you; that you will have what I call "YAY ME MOMENTS" where you celebrate your life, where you experience a sense of self pride and once again embrace possibility. It is our intention that you begin to realize that your life has meaning, direction and purpose as you trust and began to be surprised by all your possibilities as they unfold. We hope to create a community and a world of people who dare to say the good things and who are able to be with each other in thier happiest moments.

Brag: To glorify oneself in speech; talk in a self-admiring way.
To speak of with excessive pride.
To possess or own (a desirable feature)
To develop a source of pride.

Here are the rules of Bragging. A brag can be many things:

1. It can be a moment where you were surprised at your own life where you exceeded your own plans. Where the universe made it better than you even hoped.


2. It can be a moment where you were so present that you noticed the details of the experience, thing, or person in front of you. It can be a time of reflection and an integrating of the experiences in your life.


3. It can be a moment were you did something "beyond". Beyond your 'normal', beyond your 'comfortable'. A moment when you were scared and did it anyway. It can be an account of your stretching for something more, something different, somthing bigger than what you were before the expirience.

My friend Heather and I have been bragging to each other for a few months now. We talked about how we wish it could be possible for everyone to have the experience of just bragging. We noticed that bragging, like a giggle, had the natural ability of being contagious. All it would take for either of us to shift out of a bad day would be to hear a brag from one another, and a simple invitation to look for something to brag about that day. With that wish came this blog. Have fun, discover more Joy, and brag your heart out!
