....these are things Id like to try to bring into my life....things Id like to do a little more often....
1* Acknowledge how grateful I am every single day...
* Read more...take interest in the written matter around me... too often I don't bother....and Id like to make a point of absorbing more.
2* Travel.... long trips...short trips.... just get out there and take it in.
3* Try something new as often as possible....give things a go.... stop thinking of reasons why I cant...shouldn't or wont.
4* Stop worrying about what people think...and stop striving to live up to perceived expectations....allow myself to dress...behave...and live the way I want...afterall...I am ME... not someone else.
5* Stop worrying about my weight.... focus instead on getting healthy.....eating well....and exercising for pure enjoyment....
6* Eat more home grown vegetables.....and of course...grow more!
7* De-clutter my life.... stop hoarding unnecessary clutter.
8* Continue to journal the every day..... scrap more... photograph more and blog more (yes...blog more!!.....I had considered stopping because its such a time hog...but its really the only diary I write...and so it stays)
9* Let go of the feeling of obligation to face book, blogs, forums and emails....of course I wish to remain in touch with all my beautiful friends and family via cyberspace.... but I want to STOP feeling like a failure if I don't comment... reply.... post all the time....it just consumes too much time and adds too much stress.
