Cheryl ~Day 69 with 296 to go

Today was one of those days that you have a clear list of what you want to accomplish and a plan.  Then before you realize it the days is over and your list, well at least you still have a list. The thing that made today so different was that I didn’t allow my lack of getting my list done to affect me. My list will be there tomorrow and no amount of stress can redo time so just breathe. The good thing about my day was that part of the distraction of my day had to do with good news so I am grateful for my day.  I am grateful that I have grow to use my list and not let my list use me.

Kim – Day 69: 296 to Go

If I could name the one trait that is most important to me it would be respect.  I want to be respected even more than I want to be liked.  With respect, I believe, other attributes can grow. Respect gives way to acts of politeness then kindness and ultimately can lead to gratitude. If I could instill in my children one trait, it would be respect. If they respect others it means they can learn tolerance for differences and compassion for those who may have less than they do.  There is never a reason to be disrespectful.  You may disagree but can always do so in a respectful manner.

Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.

Kim – Day 68: 297 to Go

I am one of those people who starts a project but almost always doesn’t get it done unless there is a hard deadline. You can tell if you look at my craft closet. It’s filled with tools for scrapbooking, sewing, quilting, photo matting, and tole painting.  I don’t think that I am unmotivated or disorganized. I think what I probably need is to defragment my life, just like you’d defragment your computer’s hard drive. I have the same number of hours (memory) as anyone else. It just gets all broken up because I let it.  Yes, there are time constraints to when I have to make meals or pick up and drop off kids, but if I were to sort and compartmentalize the rest of the daily tasks, I suppose I could accomplish much more.  I’m not exactly sure how to do that. How do we create that open space that comes with defragmenting our time? This is not a rhetorical question. I really want to hear from anyone who has ideas on how to do this.

Cheryl ~ Day 68 only 297 Left

As winter slips into the past and spring aproaches before us the sun rises earlier and sets a little later.  This changing of the season reminds me how nature is our teacher.  It doesn’t sit idle and wait for things to happen, it makes things happen.  It creates it’s own world with each season being unique and different.  Our lives have that same potential.  There are so many people around my age that feel as if every day is a repeat of the day before.  That isn’t even close to being true for me.  Each day holds within the potential for new opportunities, new people to meet new dreams to realize.  Our lives can be mondane or they can be extrodinary.  It isn’t up to life, it is up to us, what we choose to do with our life that defines it.  As I witnessed another beautiful sunrise this morning I realized that if nature can paint the sky twice a day and never have a duplicate don’t I owe it to myself to try and live my life the same.  Find the beauty in your life, use all the colors you are given and you may be surprised where you end up.
