2014 is here - so what did I learn in 2013?

It seems to me that the best thing I can do at the end of the calender year is to sit for a while quietly and recognise what I have learnt over the past 12 months and what is it that I want to take into the next.

So here are my thoughts on 2013....  you might like to try it yourself.

1.  Kindness in thoughts, words and actions is a powerful tool in changing challenging situations, bringing about inner peace and improving relationships.  What I think and say are fundamental to my happiness.

2.  I am a role model for my daughter and as such the more I understand myself and the more kindness I show to myself and feel peaceful with who I am and support my own health and well being, the better my child will understand herself and her own needs and her own power.

3.  I have to use sound and my voice as part of my way of life because it is my source, my power, my gift, my joy.

4.  I have to face my fears and find out what they are really about.  I am allowed to take risks and I am allowed to make mistakes.  Really, what's the worst that can happen?

5.  Gratitude is a beautiful thing.  Recognising all the things I have got, all the blessings, all the joy, all the opportunities and abundance life is giving me, makes me realise how lovely my life is, keeps me in perspective and breaks my negative mental patterns.
Happy New Year may my next 12 months be full of gratitude, kindness and sound!
