I have finally had time to sit and read and write and think and ponder and pray and look forward to the
NEW YEAR with
faith and
hope and
anticipation.I love this time of the year for this very reason!!!I am one of those who loves to set aside time to come up with a plan for a new start, a fresh beginning, a
RE-grouping of sorts.
I do not believe that New Year's Eve/Day and thereabouts has any magical power....I just believe it is a great reminder to STOP, LOOK and LISTEN...to the world and our life around us. To
REflect over the past year, the blunders, the absurdities, the blessings, and everything in-between. To
RE-evaluate that which you stand for, the traps you have fallen into and all that you have forgotten to
REmember!
It is a fabulous time to
RE-focus.
In doing so I literally list the areas of my life that I believe need to be fine tuned (actually I list them all and
RE-evaluate each one of them). I try to
REmember the things I felt over the year, good and bad, making sense of each one of the feelings and the
REsults they had in my life.
I
REport to GOD and together we
REorganize what needs more attention, what needs to be
REleased and how I need to go about all of this!
Some of it does not come without a heavy price. This year I had to come to a few decisions that will affect me both good and bad, but it was time. One of those was to choose to
REduce the amount of time I work so I can
REgain my health. It will be a financial sacrifice but it will also hold great
REwards in the end I am certain.
So I am sort of
REorganizing my life.
It is also time to
REnew my commitments,
REflecting on what those are and how they need to be
REpurposed to serve me better in 2011.
I do not feel as if I am
REinventing myself so much as I am simply
REcovering that which was already there, which leads to a
REnewing of my
BODY, MIND and SPIRIT.It was time I
REspect myself enough to
REplenish that which has gotten lost in the shuffle of life.
As I look at all the lists, the
REsolutions, I have ultimately made...I am feeling
REjuvinated to
REpurpose my time and my energies...it is a
REcipe for the new year.
It is my tendancy to fret and worry and be consumed.....instead I am going to
REjoice in the fact that
GOD has it ALL under control. (I may need
REminded of this from time to time!) he he!!!
So, a little late I know but HAPPY NEW YEAR dear ones!!!
May you find the
RE's in your life and come alive and thrive in 2011!!!!!

Love & Blessings!
