Intention - Move!

Thanks as always to Andrea from ABC Creativity for the weekly reminder to set an intention.

Last night I spent some time thinking of my One Little Word for 2011 and came up with "BE!"  Last year I spent waaaaayyyyy too much time really not accomplishing anything--a lot of time in front of the TV being tired and cranky.  Yesterday I spent the day getting my two creative rooms ready for me to start my engines running.  When I look at the rooms, they make me happy--see yesterday's post for pictures.  They may not be much to anyone else, but when I look at them and see how spacious my creative room is to allow my creative juices to flow--and how cozy and comfortable my den is to allow me to relax and just "BE!" I just feel more energetic.

I just want to talk more about my word for the year, it is "BE!" but that is just a prefix for so many other words that I want to be this year as well (where needed, I've included a brief description):
- being
- belay - secure
- belive - by and by
- because (I can)
- believe
- becalm (soothe)
- on behalf of (myself)
- behave (the way I want to)
- bedazzle - beautify/impress
- beget - produce
- begin
- behaviour
- behind (support)
- behold (beauty)
- and the list goes on (I'm still working my way through the dictionary)  ;o)

When this came to me it just felt right--I want to "BE!!"  The word "DO!" was a close second or "Focus!" but "BE!" included it all.

As for this week, I want to begin to move into the direction of being.  Today, I'm spending the day collaging, dreaming, journalling, and listening to music--right now it's Celtic (which, for me, is energetic and soothing all at once).  I also want to start moving my body more--yes that "exercise" word.  I want to start dancing around my house like I used to--to feel the joyous movements and feel the music flow through me.

Have a wonderful week everyone!!!
