Proud

You know how the right compliments can make you feel a lot more energized? Well I do. And I figured it's the same thing with what you say to yourself. In stead of telling myself all the things I didn't do, I try to to pat myself on the shoulder and say: hey, you're doing good.

p.s. I'm very busy at the moment, I'm looking forward to do my daily blogtour again! 'See' you soon! :)

This week I saw...

.. Funny Ladies/ The New Yorker's greatest women cartoonists and their cartoons, with discount! I love the combination of the old portraits of creative women and their drawings.

I just randomly picked two, but it's full of prettiness.

Staying On Track

On new years afternoon I sat down with some coffee, books and the newspaper of that day and to think about the coming year and decide what my year theme should be. I found my main question was: How to keep that inner fire burning? In the last couple of years I really discovered what's important to me, what I want to spend my time on and what not. But somehow I find I'm easily distracted, mostly by what I think people expect from me or just by everyday life. My theme for 2011 is staying on track (on track = staying true to what I think is important). I think the best (and most fun:) way to this, is reading about subjects that really matter to me. Why not start right now? Tonight I ordered the first book of my list: The art of non-confirmity.

Happy Brand New Year!

A brand new year! Don't you love the sound of that? Like a blank canvas.

I didn't want to let this day pass by without wishing you all a very happy & inspiring 2011, that it may rain blessings for you!

Merry Christmas!

I just absolutely can't believe how fast this year is passing by! I don't feel ready yet for closing this year and for christmas, but fact is it's already here. So I better surrender: Leave my to do list out of sight and sip my hot choclate & listen to this. Tomorrow I'm off to 'Köln' to celebrate!

Merry Christmas to you, I hope you have a great time!!

(and a hug for those of you for whom this time isn't easy)
