I have been thinking about my blog for the past few days or so and how I needed to get it started back up. And then I told myself the same ol' stale reasons for not writing it anymore. 'You don't have time.' 'You have other things to do.' 'What would you write about?' etc, etc. I started reading my friend Stephanie's blog today and was so impressed with her dedication and commitment to it already and it was then that I decided that I was going to continue to write even if I didn't have time. So there.
Also this evening I have decided that I'm going to start making time for the things that I have been postponing and shrugging off that should be activities that are of the utmost importance to me. I am going to do my best to conduct a self-spiritual and physical overhaul. I need to work on my relationship with God. I talk to Him quite often, many times a day in fact. But I do not feel, however, that I spend the time that I should with Him. I don't read as much as I want to. I do not meditate as I would like to. I am in atrocious physical shape. I looked at some pictures from the weekend and have decided that the cutest face ever is being held up by one of the most hideous bodies ever. Say what you want ... that's my story and I'm sticking to it. I am stuck in a rut ... spiritually, physically, emotionally, and mentally ... and I HAVE to shift myself into four-wheel drive and get the hell out of there. Sooooo ... Ella has declared civil war on herself ... and dares anybody to get in her way.
Ella, I'm supporting you on your journey! It is so important that we take care of ourselves. I have found that my blog is a great release and it is a reminder of things I need and want to do. I tend to want to do things, but let them slide because I get so busy with the "have to's" of life. Life is short, and the most important "have to" is to be happy with our lives. I wish you good luck with your blog as you chronicle your progress and I am here to support you! I can't wait to read about what you're doing. I miss my friend and I am glad that we have this tool to keep us in contact. It helps me feel we are part of each other's lives once again. Much love from NC. <3 You can do anything you set your mind to!
ReplyDeleteI know -- I've missed you and I'm very glad to be reading about what and all is going on with you. I'm so proud of the work that you've been doing to get yourself back on track. I cannot wait until I am in Columbus and can start doing the same thing. Luckily, I'm going up rather early and can hopefully get myself settled, organized, and prepared for the ride ahead.
ReplyDeleteI support you too -- I know that you can do it!! Maybe we can keep each other accountable ... ; ]
