memories, dreams, reflections

Finally figured where my energy went - and I have to say, this is a sad reflection on me. Where did my energy and motivation go? Well, apart from some physical issues (which are harder to pick up after, when you start to feel your age!) I've realised that my 'problem' (oh what a shame!!!) is based on the fact that I've managed to achieve my

I understand. I feel I've fulfilled my "bucket list" so what now?

I think it's a beautiful place to be when I can allow myself to feel it to be so, and I know there is more I might fulfill, and I am quite satisfied and pleased right now.

Blessed Be!

I just read a fascinating book, Me Before You by Jojo Moyes. It does a good job, I thought, of looking at presence and satisfaction while also being drawn out into what we might now do.

I think there are always mountains to climb, and sometimes it's okay to sit in the valleys and be with that slender line of light. If we find three of them, we can make a braid, and climb. :-)

Blessed Be!!

Why not sit back and enjoy the moment. I'm sure you'll add things to your bucket list in time.

yes; the Moment.

In my experience, we never know when a new 'ambition' will show up.

Maybe call it something else? Sit in the moment & be grateful, but keep an eye open for something out of the blue?

As for editors - crushing us is their job. ;)

ah, true on all counts! I just need to remember how to be the devious little anarchist I used to be, around negative people! ;)
