Happy New Moon! Happy New Beginnings!
Today January 4th, 2:03 AM Mountain Standard time with the Sun and Moon both in 13 degrees Capricorn a new cycle begins and our new year starts in earnest. It is a great time to ring in the new, for me here with setting my focus on my new Orchid. For us though better yet to renew our intentions and reconsider our priorities. It is an especially propitious time to take a moment to calm down and intuit what may lie ahead. What may need tweaking or may be in need of a radical overhaul so we can become the person we may want to be. On the practical side today is an excellent day to change the batteries in your fire alarms, to change your water filters if you have not done so yet, to defrost the fridge, to declutter your closets.
What a wonderful exhortation, Uomi! I am just back from ten days of silence and separation from the computer, refreshed and ready for new life. Beautiful posts from you to come back to!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back Kendall and happy new beginnings to you. Have you figured who you now want to be?
ReplyDeleteexhortation
ReplyDeletean address or communication emphatically urging someone to do something : no amount of exhortation had any effect.
Kendall, I had to check on the true meaning of your chosen word, and oh so true, too funny!
I'm glad you enjoyed my choice of words. Still working on who I want to be, but I did decide during the silence that I'm not going to write a novel, which means giving up "novelist" as one of the things I want to be; I had to take time to mourn that. It's an old, old dream. But it's not going to happen now. Still, I've signed up for a poetry class, and that means renewing an old interest, something which perhaps I can still do.
ReplyDeleteKendall, no doubt you can write and you can express yourself, no matter what medium you chose. I look forward to savoring the results of your renewed focus.
