Sarah's CircleFriends are blessings that sustain our journeys. |
Well, it may be my intention for 2022, not sure I can live up to the demands of it. There is something in my brain that always jumps to the next idea long before the first is finished. To FOCUS is to pay attention to the task at hand. That's all well and good until the task at hand gets a bit boring, or needs more elbow grease or requires lots of further planning to bring all the bits into being. At that point I have to realign and get on with the job at hand. To Lose FOCUS is to be scattered. For me that translates into being easily distracted. As in wandering through Whitfill's Nursery and planning the next steps in building my Sansevieria collection. Being unfocused can also wind up with me being impulsive and getting "free puppies", like my cute CooCoo Clock. This is especially silly since Sansevieria all look mostly plastic and it's hard to tell if they are really alive! To FOCUS also leads to mindfulness. For me that means that my mind and my body are doing the same things at the same time. So if it's time to do the dishes, I'm not wandering off and having to come back and finish later. By being focused I will pay more attention to the daily blessings in our lives. Maybe also see the funny side of so many of the things that go on in our world. In 2021 my word was FUDCIARY. i choose it because money makes me nervous and numbers are not my friends. It was a partial success in that it helped me realize that "Stuff" equals "Money". More stuff = less money. I'm in a position to release stuff to new homes now. If something new wants to move in, something of the same size has to leave. It's getting easier all the time to let stuff go! Those items that don't bring joy are out the door. Learning to live with the lessons of FUDCIARY responsibility, and with FOCUS getting my attention on the needs of our daily life, I'm hoping for smooth sailing in 2022. --donna
