Day 1

Wow… Sisterhood last night was amazing! We heard an amazing word from Ps Vanessa Hoyes, Sing it, Bring it, Dream it, live it! One of the quotes used on the night was “I don’t want to get to the end of my life and find that I just lived the length of it, I want to know I’ve lived the width of it as well.” What we talked about was that we all have something inside of us that we are meant to let out, but for some of us we have decided to keep quite because we are afraid of the consequence of speaking up and speaking out. The fear of inadequacy, not having what it takes or not having all the answers, has been stopping us from being ourselves and shining the way we are meant to. What does it mean to our life when we shy away from being ourselves? Does it mean we may never see our dreams come to pass? for our lives to go forward we need to bring that spark out of us, we need to bring back those forgotten dreams and start to live as if they have already come true. So our challenge was to put down on paper or in my case computer a 90 day journal about how I am going to push past the fears in my life so I can live out my dreams today. So here I am, writing about fears… its amazing when you look back at your past and realize that your once fearless spirit has some how run away from us. It’s sad to even say it that me a 22 year old, looks back and can find that fearless spirit. I remember not caring what people thought of me, being silly, acting childish and running a muck; having that free spirit that loves nothing more then dancing and singing as much and as loud as I possibly can. It’s that free spirit that is going to help me achieve my dreams, so I need to try and find it again. So this is day 1 and let’s just hope that I will stick with it, I’ve never been that good at journaling but I’m going to give it a go. I may not blog everyday but will try my hardest! So if you would like to come along with me through this 90 day journey you are so welcome! Have a blessed day and hope the rest of your week goes swimmingly!
