As I began to read April, I was drawn to the introductory page that discusses how sunlit April is. I realize it is only day 2 of the month but it was sunny both days and my disposition is starting to improve already.
This month we are travelling along the path to Simple Abundance and discussing [...]

Simple Abundance - March 2008
Posted in Family, Just my Thoughts, Simple Abundance, Triple Eight Challenge, Uncategorized, tagged fashion, nurturing, simpleabundance, style, tripleeightchallenge on 27 March 2008 | No Comments »
I know you are all probably thinking I am nuts. March is almost over, as I was reminded this morning by my mother who was wondering if March came in like a lion or a lamb as it is looking like it is going out like a lion.
This month Sarah Ban Breathnach is discussing the [...]
Simple Abundance - Feb 11 - 17

I realize I should do these second time through readings of the daily meditations in advance of the week, not in retrospect. Anyone who is reading along may not come back to look now for the past week. I am going to seriously try to do this for the upcoming week later today.
I truly love [...]
Simple Abundance - thru Feb 10
Posted in Art, Just my Thoughts, Simple Abundance, Triple Eight Challenge, tagged authenticself, simpleabundance, tripleeightchallenge on 9 February 2008 | No Comments »
I know - I should post first thing in the morning all these thoughts I have on the daily musings. I have been very wrapped up in politics lately and those have been my first, and sometimes second and third, posts of the day. I will try to fix that starting Monday.
If you go back [...]

You all know that making resolutions doesn’t normally last. I know this to be true but I like to try to check in each month with how I am doing on my aspirations.
I have been creating new items but have not yet submitted anything for publication.
I am well on my way to The Triple Eight [...]
February - Simple Abundance
Posted in Just my Thoughts, Simple Abundance, Triple Eight Challenge, tagged creativity, gratitude, juliacameron, sarahbanbreathnach, simpleabundance, theartistsway, tripleeightchallenge on 2 February 2008 | No Comments »
February is the first month where we concentrate on one of the six principles of the journey for the entire month. This month we will concentrate on gratitude.
I have to reiterate. You really NEED a gratitude journal and need to make writing in it a nightly habit. There are days when the nights are long [...]
Wrap-Up of January Simple Abundance

Hopefully, you are reading along daily as opposed to waiting to hear something from me. I have lead a book group around Sarah Ban Breathnach’s Simple Abundance for three years now and I never seem to get out the things I want when I want to but I keep trying.
From the middle of January until [...]

My Simple Abundance posts are not quite daily. As the year goes on, they will be come less frequent also. Just making sure you know.
As I was reading on the tenth about old cemeteries, several thought quickly ran through my mind. First was how grateful I was to be alive. The second thing was maybe [...]
Simply Happy
Posted in Just my Thoughts, Simple Abundance, Triple Eight Challenge, tagged happiness, needs, simpleabundance, wants on 9 January 2008 | No Comments »
The last few days in Simple Abundance have talked about happiness - our inability to find it within ourself, our inability to get happy ourselves, the source of happiness being outside our control.
More than anything, the January 8th reading, which I just re-read, spoke to me. I was at a funeral yesterday - a funeral [...]
Gratitude and Dress Rehearsals
Posted in Simple Abundance, tagged authenticity, gratitude, happiness, simpleabundance on 5 January 2008 | No Comments »
Yesterday, I spent the day trying to get everything done I needed done so as to spend the evening with my daughter. It seemed like I was spinning wheels going nowhere until we left for her college’s hockey game.
As I read yesterday’s entry from SBB, I noticed that she gives us first definitions. These are [...]
