Let's pretend...


You have one day to be and do anything.  24 little hours. 

You are your alter ego.
Have you given much thought about your alter ego?  We certainly fight with our everyday ego...but what about that side of yourself that you secretly wish you embraced more.

The question is...."who is your alter ego?"

So I sat and gave some serious thought to this tonight (and I have to say...it was fun!).

My alter ego is fierce, fearless, a sexy femme fatale, and a woman that pushes the boundaries.  My alter ego is strong, powerful yet resilient.  She can dish it out and take it!  She is someone who jumps in with both feet and expects the net will be there.  She lives with passion.  She has no regrets.

So now...I am her for 24 hours...I can do and be anything

Now what?


I am living in Paris...and a world class photographer.  I have a morning filled with photo shoots.  I am surrounded by artistic high energy people. I ride the creative high. Early afternoon I fly in my private jet to Istanbul. During the 3 1/2 hour flight I get a message and take a quick nap.  When I arrive, I surround myself with the exotic sights and sounds. Quickly head to a market...indulge and splurge. Then dine overlooking the Bosphorus...drinking fine wine and feeling the heat of the city on my face.  Sitting across from him.  Lingering late into the night, laughing, kissing and dancing.  Finally falling into his arms and waking to the sunrise.

Ohhhhh....I think I really like her!

So....who is your alter ego?



Take a peek...I am blooming 365 days in 2010

Your alter-ego rocks!

Mine is someone less interesting.

I am a tennis champion, having just won another tournament, jetting off with my tall, handsome, athletic beau to celebrate while someone else does all my laundry. Hmmm.

That's a cool alter ego! Sounds like a movie scene. My alter ego would be a painter alone with her canvas on a beautiful field.

You are truly coming up with awesome ideas!! I love your alter ego!

My alter ego is: A famous inspirational speaker. She has her very own radio show and get's to speak to beings such as Thích Nhất Hạnh, The Dalai Lama and Deepack Chopra. She enjoys the luxury of visiting places such as Ireland, Rome and Africa. She is fulfilled and excited about life daily.

I do have one....but I can't write who she is or what she'd be doing here for the world to see....maybe someday if we meet in person, I can you tell you all about her.....

uff
Hard work... I'll try!! :)

I did something similar a while back:

I think my alter ego would do something slightly different this time. I'll give it some thought and come back later.

I can picture you as one of the Bond girls!

Your alter ego is so fascinating! I might have had the same one 5 years ago. Today, I don't know, but your blog always gives me something to ponder!

Honestly, my alter ego is me. My life is most reflective of that. My entire life process is becoming "most of myself" so anytime I allow myself to dream something new, reconnect with some piece of myself that was buried or is fresh and new...I incorporate that aspect into my life. I *am* quite bold, quite daring, full of Spirit, creative, sexy when I want to be:), centered, a fantastic cook, faith filled, peace filled, a light worker who shares from my heart, a belly dancer who can intrigue you and everything in between...depending upon the moment and the day of course :)

This is so weird, but if I could be anyone else for just a morning, I would still be me. I love my life. I love my husband who constantly drives me crazy. I love my kid who brings me joy. I love my job. I love it all. I am SO thankful and blessed.

Oh, could I make my alter ego skinny? I would want that : ) Maybe not though since it would make me sad when I went back. Darn it.

Love your alter ego. I would also be stronger than I am and more out there, more verbal and committed to what I say. More passion, for sure.

For some reason, even though I've taken two pottery classes and I SUCK, I've often imagined myself throwing pottery in a light filled studio (and it is in the country, even tho' I'm a city girl, hmm, maybe it is my "country home"?) vibrating with loud music and awaiting my friends who are bringing food and wine for a party that night.

um, can i be your alter ego, starting NOW!?!?!

Oh, Your alter ego is full of energy & go-go-go! I love her & on some days secretly envy her. but must admit my alter ego is nearer to me as I am, only with more money. :) She has enough money to do what she wants, which includes a lot of time alone & silence & writing, and a house on a lake.
