#3 (Write, paint, dance, sing...I especially loved: <br />#3 (Write, paint, dance, sing, create - from the heart).. so very true. So often I stop to think "what will people think?" or "but I've never done this before - what if I don't like how it turns out?" So what. Live and learn. If it's from the heart, can it *truly* go wrong? It's worth a try, I say.<br />#5 what makes me truly happy.. life only comes once, I need to get out there and do what I enjoy NOW. In some ways, it good to live for tomorrow, not just today.. in regards to planning and responsibility, but in other ways, I MUST live for today, because tomorrow is not guaranteed.<br />#10 doing good to others.. secretly, it is almost more joyous to give to those who do not deserve, I feel a special serenity and peace.. do you know what I mean? It's also invigorating. <br />#12, definitely #12. "once you overcome it" -yeah, gotta keep your focus on the end goal, while at the same time not forgetting to enjoy the present. In some cases it is not at all pleasant to acknowledge what you're going through, at yet, it can teach you to appreciate your abilities and strengths. I think of this every day, as I am an endurance runner. I hate the long runs, especially in the cold.. yet it feels SO good to know I can make myself do this. It's bittersweet. :)<br />#13 Absolutely, yes ma'am! I will certainly follow that one to the T! <br /><br />Happy New Year to you and yours - and thanks for this inspiration! Great timing too, because I'm getting up at 5 for a grueling (lol) Zumba class. boo-yah! :Dthewoodenspoongirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02692678150016870722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1622500913870267857.post-39279128919152774802012-01-01T02:51:37.893-08:002012-01-01T02:51:37.893-08:00Happy new year to you and yours, Novel Woman - I h...Happy new year to you and yours, Novel Woman - I hope that 2012 gives you all you need in bucket loads.jeaniehttp://jeanieinparadise.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1622500913870267857.post-52307789093057860732011-12-31T19:23:51.124-08:002011-12-31T19:23:51.124-08:00Thank you!
