Live Your Life

New Year, New You.  That's what they say, right?  But, it doesn't have to be a "New Year" to invent the "new you."  Life is full of surprises and happy twists and turns and opportunities to make it what you want.  You just have to be paying attention when it happens. 

My advice for the new year?  Throw out all ideals and notions of living by a schedule or agenda.  I'm not talking reckless abandon here.  Still get up and go to work everyday, feed your children, do your normal routines.  Just don't get caught up and stuck in them.  Take your nose out of weekly planner and LIVE life.  (Now this may be advice more for myself than anything, but if it works for you also, then Yippee!!) 

Enjoy the moments outdoors.  Soak up the energy of the full moons.  Touch trees as you pass them.  Be in the moment, at every moment.  Easier said than done, I know, but it won't hurt to at least try.  What's the worst that can happen if you live your life with intention?  You might actually get what you want out of life?  You might enjoy every aspect of your life?  Hey, that's a win-win if you ask me.
