New Beginnings

This new year I am going to have a fresh start. "This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine!" If my light is gonna shine, I better keep it burning.

New Beginnings for the New Year that will help my light shine brighter:

Respect my body

Think locally

Eat more veggies

Trust that God's plan is infinitely better than mine

Paint more often

Love where I live

Express myself

Read

Finish school (with acceptable grades)

Be a better friend

Pray

I would also LOVE to move into the beautiful little yellow house, but, of course, that ties into trusting that God's plan is better than mine.

I am inspired to re-find myself. I am inspired to live in this moment and stop beginning my sentences with "When..."

When...we move into a house

When...I'm done with school

When...I've lost some weight

When...we've saved more money

When...we have a family

When...I'm not so busy

This backwards thinking has prevented me from living in the now. RIGHT NOW. And the beginning of this year is a perfect time to start. Waddyah think??
