It’s been months since I have sat down and updated my blog.

I love to write, love to think, love to grow through words and thoughts… Love to read. My challenge at the moment is finding the time. My teenage daughter keeps me busy, so does the house and work and staying in touch with family and friends. I constantly battle with wanting to find time to myself to be able to reflect and put thoughts and ideas to paper (or the computer screen!). How do other people manage to have that balance in life where they get to also do exactly what they want to do, what makes them happy and feel for filled? I want to ensure that I grow, learning, appreciate every day and every moment and delight in those small things. I want to be happy and feel content and satisfied with who I am and where I’m heading and currently situated.

This year, 2014, would have to be a year about finding balance and simplicity. I don’t find that my world often stands still as it constantly moves at a great speed.. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, as I love to be busy. And would prefer to be busy then bored (as I’ve always said), but there needs to come a moment where you just stop and breath, where you are at one with yourself and doing what fills the heart with joy.

I find myself wanting to keep hold of the inspiration, creativity, rejuvenated  and relaxed state that I experienced for a couple of months following my retreat experience. I need to work on getting this back and keeping a hold of it.

As I continue to grow and learn, I am grateful for the experiences that I have and look forward to a more peaceful, less hectic way of life.
