Archives for the month of: January, 2010
When asked if I had any resolutions or goals for 2010, I had to honestly reply that I did not.

This got me thinking – is my lack of goals or resolutions a bad reflection on me?  Having floated along seemingly aimless for the past 2 1/2 years, it annoys me to feel this way, directionless.

BUT, I really like what Alice (http://twitter.com/al_ice) said – affirmation and intention – these are the positive things that we can lay down – stepping stones to living life to the best of our ability.

And I do have a few stepping stones …

Express gratitude for the small things in life, they are a gift and should be treated with respect. Sometimes small things can lead to big things – be positive at all times.
Always tell those I love, how I feel about them. Say the words, this could make their day.
Spend quality time with my family. One day they might not be around anymore and I don’t want to have regrets.
Be a good friend … listen, be supportive, give back.
Be more kind than I need to be, more compassionate and understanding. 
Always listen to the little voice inside, it’s been put there for a reason.
Don’t make people a priority in my life who won’t even make me an option in theirs.
Spend quality time with me, allow myself to recharge and regroup. I’m the only one who can keep myself together.
Live every moment to the fullest, love with my whole heart, laugh often.

… small things that can make a big difference.

What are your affirmations and intentions for 2010 and the future?

Each time I hear the song “So Much” by Newton Faulkner, my mind takes me back to Shaun … and I remember … I am blessed to have had him in my life. 

I miss you Shaun!

So Much – Newton Faulkner

I wish you could see me, I’m flying still don’t know how. I owe you so much, I guess you knew that 
I know that you would be proud of me, I hope you are. I owe you so much, I hope you knew that 

There’s so much of you in everything I do. Just wish that you were still around 
But I’m following through just could do so much more if you were still around. Were still around 
I’m still here, still fighting, still crazy, still trying, I owe you so much I hope you knew that 
There’s so much of you in everything I do. Just wish that you were still around 
But I’m following through just could do so much more if you were still around 

It’s one thing time will not erase. My life would not have been the same. I miss you I could use a friend. 
To run some things by you now and then. 
There’s so much of you (Not have been the same) In everything I do (Could use a friend) 
There’s so much of you in everything I do. Just wish that you were still around. 
Were still around. I wish you could see me, I’m flying 
There’s so much of you in everything I do. Just wish that you were still around 
But I’m following through just could do so much more if you were still around 
It’s one thing time will not erase. My life would not have been the same

2010 has arrived! Treat it kindly, spend your time with people who enrich your life, don’t throw your heart away, love those who deserve it.
Be kind to yourself, be kind to others. Laugh often, from the pit of your stomach. Tease people, tickle them, be a true friend. Have fun!
Kiss madly until your toes curl with pleasure. Hold hands & appreciate the fact that you can. Hope for better things, dream big.
Endless possibilities await you … the world is your oyster! Never just settle … you deserve the best! This can be the best year yet!
