To begin again...
So today, on my youngest son's 5th birthday, I made the decision to reset my life. Do you ever get tired of being in a rut? Tired of being everything to everyone but yourself? That, my friends, is me. I've been feeling this way for a long time and I happened upon a blog that spoke of a life reset.
Basically, over a one month period of time you answer difficult questions, challenge yourself, and learn a bit of visualization. Truthfully, had I not been in my current situation, I'd say it was all hokum. But at this point, I am willing to do just about anything.
So today's assignment was to pick a journal, a mantra, and a theme song. First two were easily done. I always have journals laying about and my mantra has come out of some really difficult times to say the least. But choosing a theme song...mercy that is hard. Music is everything to me and choosing one song is HARD for me. It ends up looking like a soundtrack- which I am working on. Here's what I came up with:
My journal is turquoise with an embossed floral pattern. Turquoise is considered a healing stone and is said to absorb negativity and changing it into useful energy. I need it!
My mantra is: "I make the path." taken from Alice in Wonderland. It goes back to wanting to do for myself instead of what is expected of me from others.
My soundtrack is: Brave by Indina Menzel and Stronger by Sara Evans. Brave speaks to moving forward because it's time Stronger is just what it says- just a little bit stronger.
Here's to day two!
