The Best Thing You Can Do ...



I have been finding quotes on PinTerest lately that have caught my attention. This one literally jumped off the page and seemed it was written just for me.

This is where I have been recently. I am realizing I need to leave my fate in a greater powers hands. I wonder where I will be in weeks and months to come. I need to stop thinking. Stop wondering. Stop imagining. The only thing I can do is ... BELIEVE.

Believe in where I am at 
In what I know 
In myself 

I find that life deals out a hand that does not always play out in the way we imagine it. I use that not in a negative way, but in truth. We work through these times, in hope that our inner strength will carry us through.

We are heading towards the end of another year. As many of you know, I do like "Turning the Page" and starting again. It is a chance to begin again. A clean slate. To start anew. I have yet to choose "My Word of the Year" (a word that I carry with me throughout the year to improve upon myself) but I am leaning towards BELIEVE ... It feels good to say to myself ... Rolls off the tongue well ... A soothing word, of sorts ... What will your "Word of the Year" be?

  1. Loved your post! I too like a new page turned to start anew. I love the Bible verse, 'His mercy is new each morning...' It calls to me about God's love that is unconditional for us. We are created in His image and therefore the possibilities that lie before are endless. I had not thought about my word of the year until right now...I think it will be 'trust.' Thank you Kristine for sharing your heart. ❤

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?
