Have you seen this video? It's about 5 minutes long and well worth the time.
I think the thing that really hit home for me was when Judy says something like: "When I let go of who I thought she should be, she flourished."
That simple statement is true for all of us. While we look into the new year with hope, my hope for myself, and each of you, is that we can finally realize that we are enough.
Happy New Year!
Someone sent me this video a few weeks ago, and I had the same thought you did - that we could all be so much more if we were accepted for who we are.

As usual, you have found another new way of inspiring us all. Happy New Year.

I let go of preconception of who and what i should be and now I am simply being me. Now that i want nothing more I can see there is a realm of possibility I had heretofore missed.

Amazing! I love this on so many levels. And like Jean commented above 2010 might be the year for me to just "be" to start accepting myself for who I am!
