Bye 2011, you have been a great year for me.
I got to do more of the things I love to enjoy, which included traveling, spending time with my biological family, visiting new places, spending more time with friends, exploring more personal interests, creating more fabulous jewellery and learning to treat every day like a vacationer.
I want more of those things in 2012 plus some new things to choose from.

Thanks Universe!

Retire from resistance

About now, I begin to think about what I want to change/add/delete in my life for the new year. I don't do 'resolutions' as much because they are usually broken by mid January…

The thing I really want is to retire from resistance. I want to make that my chief goal for 2012.

I am retired from resistance.

Just saying it makes me feel at ease. As if a whole load has been lifted.

What is this resistance I am alluding to? It is anything that makes me feel heavy emotionally, or when I am not in concert with my inner being. It is when I temporarily lose my connection with Source.

For the next couple of days, I will be making a list of all the things I resist. This ought to be interesting.

The currency of Happiness

I have figured out that me being happy is my currency to the best possible life I can ever live.

So I am only ever focused on anything to do with happiness.

Am I happy now?

How can I be happier now?

What thoughts should I conjure, so that I can feel happy now?

What image or fantasy can I bring to mind, if my now is ho hum?

What can I do now that elicits happiness?

Which food would I enjoy eating more? 

Which book is more enjoyable?

Which movie feels good?

Happiness is not elusive.

It is a decision (to feel good) that must be consciously made in every moment.

  

Harvesting Fun

The holidays are so much fun aren't they? I really love this time of year. Everyone seems excited about one thing or another. It doesn't really matter what the reason is, just to be excited and happy is enough for me.

I've been enjoying the mild weather we are experiencing, it is lovely to see greenery in my surroundings at this time of the year.

I'm loving the opportunities to bake and  cook wonderful meals both for us and for friends. Today I decided to prepare a homemade pancake mix for myself, so that all I have to do is "add water" when I'm ready to whip up a batch of pancakes in the morning!
