“Create” what a boundless word!
“Create” it said and I just had to
“Create” a Space…my space, to
“Create” my blog title to my blog to
“Create” room in my life to
“Create” and be
Creative!

I think I lost my appetite when WordPress stopped their Daily Prompt but now I feel my appetite returning thanks to Dee’s Daily Prompt at Thriving not Surviving! I’m looking forward to savouring some new words and satisfying my appetite!
Le grà, (with love)

Can anybody tell me, in plain english, how to ‘pingback’ to a post? Have I done it correctly by putting a link to the post as above?
Life is one long riddle…or need it be?
R Ruminating, if it’s the negative sort, will hold you back,
I Initiative & Imagination propels you forward,
D Doubting yourself merely
D Damages your Initiative & Imagination
L Love yourself, as you are,
E Enlightenment follows and solves your puzzle!
Much love,

Christmas has been family orientated, restful and restorative. Today I want to wish you a very happy New Year and share my word for the new year ahead.
The word I want to focus on is JOY. I want to continue what was my new focus on GRATITUDE over the last twelve months and develop it into GRATITUDE that highlights the JOY in my life!
I want to find JOY in the ordinary. I want to find joy when I wake up every morning to help me shift the NAT (negative automatic thought) that always tells me I’m exhausted despite what should have been adequate sleep. I want to find JOY at every opportunity, no matter how my body feels and I want to do my best to bring that feeling of JOY into the lives of those around me!
Here is some of the JOY that I found already today…
A lie on in bed, reading blogs, reading and replying to amazing comments, a lazy breakfast with no eye on the time and surrounded by family, an unexpected hug of appreciation and writing this post to share with you!
What brought JOY into your day? How did you share it with others?
What is your word for the new year?
Much love,
Marie xx
Thank you to all my wonderful blogging family for your company over the past twelve months. I’ve got to know so many amazing friends! I’ve really enjoyed your comments and I can’t say loud enough, how much I appreciate your encouragement and engaging conversations!
“I Will Always Love You”
No.1 in December, 1992.
(originally by Dolly Parton)
(from “The Bodyguard” soundtrack)
If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I’ll go but I know
I’ll think of you every step of the way
And I… will always love you, ooh
Will always love you
You
My darling, you…
Mmm-mm
Bittersweet memories –
That is all I’m taking with me.
So good-bye.
Please don’t cry:
We both know I’m not what you, you need
And I… will always love you
I… will always love you
You, ooh
[Instrumental / Sax solo]
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you’ve dreamed of
And I wish you joy and happiness
But above all this I wish you love
And I… will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I, I will always love you.
You.
Darling, I love you.
I’ll always…
I’ll always love you.
Ooh
Ooh

Consider your inner child… your child-self that has got you to where you are today, through the good and the bad!
It’s time to show your child-self the love and appreciation they deserve. Shower them with an abundance of love at every opportunity. Listen to them when they are sad or angry, they have an important message they want you to hear. Be gentle and kind in how you talk to and treat yourself… this impacts your child-self. Encourage your child-self to relax, to make time for fun and leave their worries about your future in your capable adult hands.
Now just sit back, be patient and watch yourself flourish!
Much love,
Marie xx
When I look back on the past year or two of blogging and consider this particular post, PRIVILEGE…
I feel even more privileged than I did back then. I feel privileged because I’ve come to know myself better by sharing my thoughts and feelings.
I’ve gained some new and life changing perspectives from insightful comments received from you wonderful bloggers.
I feel really privileged because an unexamined life is like a broken circle or a half circle, you think there’s a piece missing. I’m slowly realising that I am a full circle, I’m seeing that the pieces were there all along, just out of view! I’m enjoying this process, this unique journey and I’m no longer worried about who I will become because I am, I already am!
Do you feel privileged? What makes you feel privileged? Has your view of privilege changed in the past year or two?
Much love,
Marie xx
Paula Light 3TC… Three Things Challenge
Thanks to Paula for a little light challenge, some fun to get the day started…
For two pins, at this very moment, I’d don my astronaut suit; with its faded stripes, fuel up my craft on lemonade and take an extended space trip, leaving others to fill the gaps in their expectations… they so clearly think I’m expected to fill… LOL!
Anyone feel the same and want to join me for a space party here on Create Space?
Try it yourself…
