Welcome to 2015! I haven’t written a blog since 2013, but felt compelled to do so today in between sneezes! I have lost my voice and been in bed for days, but I am also very grateful for this chance to rest, read, plan and dream about some of the things I want to do or achieve this year. As I am getting older, it seems much more important not to waste opportunities, time and to make the most of now.
We all look back at the last year and enjoy remembering all the wonderful events, lovely places we visited and special times we shared with family and friends. We also wonder whether we achieved our goals and did the things we promised we might and some of us, including myself, have had hard lessons to learn but have hopefully grown from those experiences.
So here are six of the things that I am intending to do:
1) I now intend to write only positive entries in my gorgeous new diaries (I like to have two) and I have also been given a Louise Hay ‘I Can Do It’ Calendar, which I am about to open and will say these affirmations. There is a General January message: ‘This month, I tenderly place my foot on a new pathway. I open my heart, knowing that Love guides my decisions. All is well.’
The message for today, Thursday 1st January is: ‘Today begins a positive chapter in my life – the start of an exciting new adventure!’ I can live with that.
2) I usually create a dream board at this time of year and I am always surprised, looking back on them, how much came about! I have a free download for
'Create a dream board' This year, instead, I am going to attempt to Art journal each week and if any of it is of interest I will share it with you. This is completely new for me and I have been checking out tutorials and You Tube clips for inspiration (oh the joys of the internet!)
3) I am also looking into contemplative photography (a long, loving look at the real) as I would like to photograph in a more inspirational way.– you might want to check out Kim Manley Ort’s website: http://www.365daysofinspiration.com/blog/2011/05/03/learning-see-contemplative-photography/
4) I intend to feel healthier and fitter and be full of energy and vitality!
5) I intend to make sure I have an ‘Attitude of Gratitude’
6) I intend to ‘Love Big’ as I do believe it is the answer and way forward.
Intentions are always stronger as they imply action and I hope you will also join me in some intentions of your own and if you need some guidance please download my
'Wish List'
Wishing you a wonderful 2015, full of Angel blessings, love and exciting new adventures! Sharon xx
