strategies for creating the life of your dreams...
one woman decided not to buy a single article of clothing for a year, which is oddly inspiring to me.
one woman decided to matching her values with her time as a daily practice.
these are simple things to work on, commitment is all that is required
(& maybe a two good pairs of shoes at the start of the year so you don't have to buy any during the next 365 days)
when I got my new position in September, it very quickly became an all consuming issue...
my life, house, health and realtionships began to get short-shrift.
my commitment is to balance work with life stuff better.
to that end I am taking vacation in July and August
I am doing a little bit of yoga every morning
I am doing a daily meditation, even if just for ten minutes
& I am spending more time around the house, with my sweetie, making our home a refuge, a safe comfortable place to be in together.

My dearest friend, it is so good to see you posting and to feel your gentle presence once again in the blogosphere!
ReplyDeleteI think that I have forgotten what it is to dream....
Or perhaps I have just finished a decade that involved letting go of childish things and now I am ready to dream bigger, more amazing dreams?
Either way, I'm going to ponder your question as I cross the 2000 miles that have separated me from my estranged father.
I want to partner with God and create the life of our dreams. I'm just not sure what that life will look like...but I do hope to live it one day!
To create the life of my dreams, I might have to claim a "do over" such as we did in grade school gym class.
ReplyDeleteI would have to define my "values" into something concrete and not abstract ideals.
