Thursday, 12/12/2013

Day 346, 12/12/2013 - Eat, had my first Gingerbread latte of the season for breakfast. Took chicken salad for lunch and had another chip and dip dinner. Pray, I prayed that I would get enough work done at the office so that I could leave on time and get some Christmas shopping done. Prayers answered as I was able to get most of my shopping done. Joy, my joy today was in purchasing myself a new sofa pillow. It says JOY! I'm sure it is supposed to be only for the holidays. I'm thinking I will leave it out year round to remind me to find JOY in every day!

Why blog? Why now?

Similar to the popular book "Eat Pray Love" I divorced after many years of marriage. I felt a need to rediscover or reinvent myself. Unlike the person in the book, I do not have unlimited funds. Yes, I will do some traveling, but mostly in the United States, maybe other points from time to time. Eat, I love to eat and experience new tastes, check on point #1. Pray, I was raised and remain grounded in traditional religion and desire a more spiritual/prayerful connection, check on point #2. Point 3, Love, is where my journal will differ. In my effort to reinvent myself, I choose to find and experience Joy in every day. You see, I feel that love and joy are synonymous with one another. Until I have joy from within, I do not feel I can love another fully. This all said, I began my simple journal of Eat, Pray, Joy/Love on January 1, 2013. I recorded and posted my observations daily or every couple of days for that first year. Now I post when the Spirit moves me. Remember to Eat, Pray and find Joy in every day!
