A New Year - A White Blank Page

A new year is a bit like opening a blank page in a brand new book. No scribbles or doodles yet, but no crossing-out or erasing either. No achievements, no mistakes! A fresh start - it's exciting.

My notebook is itching for something to be written on it....maybe a New Years resolution list?

But I don't want to write a list....because once I’ve written one I can’t rest until I’ve crossed off all the ‘to-do’s.

So I’m going to fly in the face of convention. I’m not making a new years resolution list.

I actually blame the ginger tea. If I hadn't become addicted to it I wouldn't have checked on the Pukka website when I saw the little note inside the bottom of the tea box that promised free samples if you check online. I wouldn't have read about Ayurveda which is a 400 year old Indian Philosophy of health and well-being. It could also have been because H and I did some yoga and I'd forgotten how cool and relaxing it is. But I think I'm about to go through a bit of a hippy phase! Which I don't think is conducive to list writing....but I may be mistaken.

So I'm going to be a bit more chilled this year....and see what happens.....maybe even learn to embrace "dolce far niente"......'the sweetness of doing nothing!'

But I have taken the pledge!! You may have noticed the cute button in the side bar. I can't wait I've got an excuse now to read as much as I want.....I've got to do it.....I've taken the pledge!
