Letters Across the Miles ... Catching Up



 



 Dear Jennifer,

So glad you have been making the most of your days since we last wrote!

This time of the year is a wonderful change from Winter, but I have to say – I am more of a Spring Fall Girl, Myself … Although, I can appreciate others who love the Summer months!

Sending you all the best regarding your 5k … Have you always been a Runner?  

You asked what I have been up to …  I am currently taking Susannah Conway’s JOURNAL YOUR LIFE online course. I am really enjoying it. I did journal when I was living at home with my folks. I then turned my attention to writing poetry. Believe it or not, I still have “My First Diary” with the lock! I have enjoyed journaling over the years, but now I have started two new journals – A handwritten journal and a vision journal (Based on the same idea as a vision board). Hoping I can adapt a journaling

Since I started working in Providence, I have also added to my photography portfolio. I am enjoying taking pictures of the skyscrapers, down to the smallest details the city has to offer. I have also posted an album on Facebook, if you are interested.

I enjoyed reading about your “Choice” thought process. I do agree. I often say where we are in life is “a choice”. If you do not like where you are, change it. If you want change, you must consciously make an effort to reach for something new etc …

I feel the older we get, the more we appreciate the smaller moments in life. Listening to the ocean, the sincere Hello’s, taking in a sunset … I treasure these moments!

Thank you for sharing the Warrior Canine Connection with me. There are some amazing individuals in this world! I come from a family of animal lovers, so knowing they are helping Veterans just makes them even more special!

The Internet is a great place that brings people together – In a unique one – Look at how it brought us together? LOL …

Until Next Time …

Sending love Across the Miles …

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...

All about Hope ...

I thought this image was appropriate for how I am feeling today. I seemed to have gotten a second wind with being creative this year. I am excited to tell you about my new treasure in writing. It is a newfound website (that I found in a column in Oprah's Nov 2011 magazine) called 750Words.com. This site follows the steps of Julia Cameron's The Artists Way. It helps you work towards a better writing style. It encourages you to write 750 words a day. This is approximately 3 typewritten pages of words. I am finding it easier to pick a theme (from Patti Digh's LIFE IS A VERB book - Thanks, Patti!) to help create daily themes. Please cheer me on to continue this daily ritual.  Have you started a new routine that you would like to share?
