Freestyle Friday: Change

In light of January's NaBloPoMo theme of change, I've decided to reflect on what I want change to mean for me in 2009.

Choosing to be different


Having faith in my choices


Allowing myself to fall and get back up again


Never giving up on my dreams


Going the extra mile


Expecting great things to happen

Thankful Thursday

10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... Happy New Year! I want to dedicate Thursdays to being thankful. And what better day to start than today--the first day of 2009 and the first day of NaBloPoMo. Today I am especially thankful for the new year. I am thankful for being able to bring in the New Year with family and friends. I am thankful that I have no regrets coming into the new year. Most of all I am thankful that God continues to bless me with his love each and every day. I wish you all a very blessed and prosperous New Year!

January NaBloPoMo: CHANGE

Okay, so I swore I would never do this, but as usual my sister has inspired me to do something else I'd never thought I'd do. I will be participating in the NaBloPoMo for the month of January. For those of you who don't know, NaBloPoMo stands for National Blog Posting Month. It is a social network that has a different theme for blog posts every month and challenges its members to post every day for a month. This will be an insteresting experiment for me since I struggle to post once a week, but since this month's theme is CHANGE, it seems fitting for me to break out of the box for this one. My first post will be on January 1, 2009. Wish me luck!
