I’ve tried to start writing a blog and even have a few entries in cyberspace, but never managed to keep it up. Apparently this is a problem for many blog writers.
This time, it’s going to work. I feel positive about it.
Until recently I wasn’t into the whole blog thing. I never read them and my writing of them, well, that’s already been explained. Then a frugal forum I regularly read had a link to ‘The Years Are Short‘ it is a wonderful one minute movie about how quickly our children grow, and from there was a link to the movie producers blog, The Happiness Project. This truly inspired me, not to blog at first, but to read blogs. I loved the concept behind The Happiness Project. This was something myself and my daughter had discussed on a few occasions, could we ‘choose’ to be happy. Gretchen has gone through this subject with a fine tooth comb, and what she does not know about how to be happy, really is not worth knowing. From Gretchen’s blog, there were links to many other’s, some I read for a few days and some I’m subbing to and reading avidly. The most recent favourite is Zen Habits I’m definitely looking at ways to incorporate ideals from there. I’d already started decluttering, but it’s a slow process. The goal setting is the next thing on my agenda. Yesterday for a few minutes I sat with pen and paper and wrote the goals that came to mind. I want to spend more time on them and then share, but what surprised me was that finishing the kitchen was not one of them.
