Time to break the silence.
Almost a week has gone by, and giving up the things I chose to for Lent is going quite well. At times, it’s been hard to only drink water. I don’t think I realized how often I had been drinking sweet tea at dinner. Something that has surprised me (well, I had hoped that this would happen and even expected it) is that I love doing crunches now. (But remember this?) I think what has actually surprised me is how quickly I have come to enjoy them. Last Thursday evening, I said to a friend, “I love doing crunches!” in an effort to make myself hear me saying that out loud in order to change my way of thinking. It works. Think on a thing long enough, and I believe it becomes reality. Don’t misunderstand – action is clearly needed as well, but I think the thought should come first. Maintaining an idea, a thought, at the forefront of your mind…powerful.
Since this is turning out to be a stream-of-concious type post, this….
…is what I found on my desk this morning. A lovely lady at work gave it to me. I love the fact that because we are such an electronic generation, this little (almost) novelty brings such a sense of nostalgia. It will be perfect sitting on my desk.
Last week, I also came across Sarah Jane where you can find sweet little things like this…
…the front of a card. So many other lovely things, too.
Out for now. 2 minutes left of library internet time!
