Well I promised that I’d show you mine if you showed me yours. New Year’s resolutions that is! There is something very exciting about new years: the festivities, the energy, the chance to turn over a new leaf, the snogging at midnight.
But I wish we could have that brand of positive energy year round. Why are we only supposed to make positive changes in our life for one night? Is my decision to switch up my attitude any less exciting on June 20 than January 1? And personally I find myself locking late night lips far more often than once a year!
So here’s my list… And who knows, maybe I’ll make a new one every month, just to keep life interesting.
1. Start an urban garden… Perhaps grow my mint and chives on the rooftop… or explode my window boxes with some beets and arugala.
2. Explore wilderness wonderlands. I love my urban adventures but I think it’s time for me to exit the city and dabble in things au naturale. Perhaps climb a mountain… Dive off a waterfall?
3. Gather a group of friends and organize a dinner party rotation. Allow us all to spend more time together… Share appetizers and conversation.
4. Explore all my senses. I think I too often rely on sight. I want to feel and taste and smell and listen to everything around me.
5. Read more. I get lost in the .com universe and forget how nice it is to flip pages and run my fingers across old bindings.
love them. i want a garde too!
