Resolutions: aka Intentional and Deliberate Plans to Challenge Myself to an Adventure
-Read More: Why?: As long as I'm living, I should be learning. I also feel that since I spend countless hours on the Metro going to and from work and everywhere in between, I should spend the time usefully. So far I have read 4 books, joined a book club for accountability, and have started to beef up my Amazon wish list (recommendations welcome).
-Learn Calligraphy: Why? Call me an old Southern Belle, but the lost art of regular correspondence is one that I cherish. I also feel like I need to touch base with my artsy roots and challenge myself to learn a new craft. Plus, the bonus is that I know that I can regularly share the fruits of my learned labor with others.
-Make Physical Exercise a Habit: Why? I'm officially in my late 20's and that metabolism doesn't get any faster with age. I also allow money to flow out of my account and straight to the neighborhood gym each month. So, I'm basically throwing money down the drain and doing nothing good for myself by not going.
-Answer to Leadership Opportunities in the Church: Why? When we were in Birmingham, John and I had the wonderful opportunity to be a part of a church plant. Through that experience, we had possibilities to serve in the church (being a greeter, playing with the band). So, when we moved here and started going to a larger church- we still longed to play more of a role in the church.
Cheers to striving for an intentional adventure and another wonderful week in the District.
"So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogs bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then i could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speed trains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that could hold us back."
