I always enjoy this process and savour it by gently taking my time.<\/p>\n<p>I dreamt. I walked. I reflected. I meditated. I felt. I wrote. I shared. I connected. And then I let it be and just sat!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Breathe in. Breathe out. And reflect.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And now <a title=\"Here comes 2014\u2026\" href=\"https:\/\/www.soulsister.co.za\/wp\/2013\/12\/herecomes2014\/\">2014<\/a> has arrived so quickly! I have managed to continue to step gently into this year bringing my reflections along.<\/p>\n<p>These are my three words for 2014 &#8211; <em>commitment, forgiveness and creativity<\/em>. I feel these are big ones which suits my sense of this year. I think 2014 will be a big year.<\/p>\n<p>I want to <em>commit<\/em> to taking a very big mouthful of (my) life and savouring it slowly and mindfully while walking my talk.<\/p>\n<p>I want to <em>forgive<\/em> myself and release those shackles I have created in my mind. I want to forgive me &#8211; the me I am now, the little girl me and all the me&#8217;s in between. <strong>Breathe.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I want to create (my) life and feel <em>creativity<\/em> in all aspects of my life so that I can weave my beautiful journey. This thing we call life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In. Out. Reflect.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I am excited to explore these words more and to see where they lead me in 2014. I really hope that you will keep me company on this journey and walk gently with me.<\/p>\n<p>Did you say farewell to your intentions for 2013 before you set new ones for this year?
