A love letter to myself

Through Karen’s daily prompts for the Path Finders course, I have created:

• a Love List — a list of things that I love to do
• three Light Words, which represent the activities which light me up
• a vision board, visually representing what I hope for myself over the coming year
• my Word of the Year
• a mind map of ideas to help me actualize my Word of the Year using my Light Words
• an extensive Life List Menu, with all kinds of awesome in store for the future
• a collection of nightly notes, describing what I’ve been grateful for each day
• a collection of countless Morning Pages, doodles, to-do lists, and heaven knows what other ephemera, and finally
• some notes on identifying my “oxygen masks”

That is a lot of work.  More importantly, that is a lot of work to have completed in just 4 weeks (and may I add, while packing and moving and unpacking and all that mess).  To gain a little perspective, we were encouraged to give ourselves some loving advice in the form of a letter, written as if from our best friend.  Since I have wanted to do this for a few days now, the timing was perfect.
