Resolution #1

#1: In 2014 I will keep a one-sentence-a-day diary, perfect for a simple lifestyle!

Happy 2014!

I started the year with breakfast at my newly wed babysister's (and husband of course) place.
Wish you all a happy year full of hope, love, faith and new inspiration!

(I'll be posting my new years resolutions coming week)

Cooling down

I like these 'cooling down' days. Enjoying simplicity, eating left overs and thinking about new years resolutions. At the beginning of 2013 I decided to get rid of fifty things a week, this became such a constructive habit and made my life better and more enjoyable while I had to deal with some pretty hard circumstances. Now I feel extra motivated to think about some new goals for 2014. The why and the how are very important when it comes to resolutions: why do I want this (do I really really want this), how is this going to make my life better? And how am I going to make this happen? Subgoals guarantee succes on the short term and will, in my experience, keep you motivated for the long term. I'll post my list soon, love to hear about yours too!

Holiday Greetings

How valueble to focus on Light in dark days. Hope you're having a good one too.

Blankie

        

I love these cold december days, they make my house feel like a blankie.

(I'm really into naïev art lately, love this painting by An Rutgers van der Loeff)

Destressing

Do you know those uncounsious and unnecesarry rules you can have for yourself? I'm trying to uncover and than get rid of them.

Street view

I can't picture myself living in a modern uniform street anymore. I need variety, I need stories. Loads of stories can be found in my street, especially in december.

(Streetview was this weeks theme of 'corner view' a weekly appointment to show something from our own corner of the world)
