Thank you. And right on with the resolutions. I agree with every last one of them. Especially about embracing fear. I always think that when I feel I'm truly scared of something that it only means that I have to do it, you know? Heck I even jumped out of plane this summer to embrace fear, dammit. And it felt good.Honorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16655703733672433353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369717206174670865.post-52586666939283226112011-01-15T10:14:19.949-08:002011-01-15T10:14:19.949-08:00these are lovely resolutions, i feel the same on s...these are lovely resolutions, i feel the same on so many levels. i especially like the 'no complaining'. it's funny, sometimes the words 'oh, i'm so busy' or so tired, or whatever, just sort of flow out of my mouth without me realizing. and yet here i am trying to teach the kids not to complain about every little thing! just like any habit, with a little practice i'm sure it will come naturally. <br />good luck with the camera, i'll be working there right along with you!!lesley [smidgebox]https://www.blogger.com/profile/12538817199748929186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369717206174670865.post-2125245323038575252011-01-13T16:08:43.614-08:002011-01-13T16:08:43.614-08:00These goals ring true in a deep way. In the past ...These goals ring true in a deep way. In the past few years, I have made a huge effort (with a lot of success) to *specialize, not just generalize (quality over quantity), in areas such as cooking, entertaining, photography. But as of late, I've fallen into a trap of wanting to do, as opposed to doing. Filled with inspiration in so many areas, but not taking action. Changing this is a huge goal.<br /><br />Like you, I am at my happiness when I am reading. I want to read more... A LOT more. When I stop reading, I somehow forget that this is more than a "want"- it's a NEED. I want to take time every day to read.<br /><br />And geography??
