Reverb13 prompt: “It’s hard to believe today is the last day of Reverb13! …without thinking too hard about it, grab a pen and some paper and finish the following five sentences: 2014 is going to be MY YEAR because… In 2014, I am going to do… In 2014, I am going to feel… In 2014, I am not going to… In December 2014, I am going to look back and say…”
2014 is going to be MY YEAR because who else could I or it possibly belong to? I am going to inhabit, embody, live IN 2014, be present for my life, be in my body, awake in every moment I can be.
In 2014, I am going to do a lot, even though I always say I’m going to slow down, pace myself. And yet, my intention is to focus more on my experience, how I want to feel rather than what I accomplish, so maybe I could also say that in 2014, I am going to do less.
In 2014, I am going to feel free, more at ease, grounded and centered, loved, joyful and grateful, rested and energized, satisfied.
In 2014, I am not going to diet or weigh myself. I am not going to “should all over myself” or smash myself to bits. I won’t abandon myself, won’t apologize for myself, won’t give too much of myself away.
In December 2014, I am going to look back and say “thank you, that was amazing.”
Project Reverb prompt: “Encounters | What thing did you keep encountering this year over and over again? Was it something you learned from or just a strange coincidence?”
The message that I am enough, that I can trust myself. The idea that I have the right to have the life I want. I don’t have to earn the right to be here, to take up space. I already am what I long to be.
Besottment Reverb 2013 prompt: “What did you change your mind about in 2013? Did you have a change of heart about anything? What was it, and why?”
This is related to the previous prompt, because the change of heart was I used to believe I was broken, needed to be fixed, had something wrong with me. I thought I needed to change, be something different. I was so wrong.
“Thank you it was amazing!” That’s how I feel about your blog and getting to know you through #Reverb13. Wishing you all the best in 2014 🙂
Thank YOU, Christine! May you have a wonderful new year.
I love how you already know there will be much to be grateful for in the new year. I know it too: this is totally going to be our year, Jill. I feel so lucky to be on the journey with you.
Thank you for being such a wonderful and important part of the Reverb13 community. And a beautiful friend. x
Good things are happening for us. We’ll both have new boys, although mine will be hairier than yours. 🙂
Thank you for hosting this, for being so present all the way through. xo
