So I've had this idea.
I've been having a rough couple of years and have found that I'm really struggling with myself: who I am, what I'm made of, and whether or not I'm worthy. Unworthy of what, you ask? I'm not even sure. Needless to say, my confidence and esteem are weak, but I want to change that.
And my thinking? What better way to find yourself and your worth, than in the things that you have and are thankful for? They can be people, places, things, events, lessons- anything. I'm going to work on this daily. I'll find 365 things for which I'm thankful for a year, write about them, and if possible, tag them so they know that I'm thankful.
Of course, it's never that simple. I have other "rituals" to help myself. A page of affirmations each morning. A visual goal chart so I can't just flake on my plans. Mantras. Etc.
But as we lead up to this year's Thanksgiving, I shall dedicate this blog solely to the giving and reminding of my own blessings. And so it begins!
what a great idea colleen, almost makes me want to do something like this :p Good luck on your 'project'!
ReplyDeleteHey, it's Lori! I agree, this is such a great idea. It's actually really similar to my blog, in which the titles of my posts are something I love and then elaborate upon. Except I don't think I have it in me to do it every day! This will be a great thing to look back on and lift your spirits, I'm sure. I'm excited for you, haha. Good luck! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for following, guys! I'm looking forward to the commitment. :) We'll see where it grows!
