Taking Stock






we are twenty five days into a new year.  three weeks 

ago, i considered making a new years resolutions

or choosing a word to describe what i would like to 

accomplish or manifest this year. my decision was to 

spend as much time as i could with friends, family, 

paints and create and learn what pulls at my heart.


this makes me happy :)





look backward, forward

take stock, be in the present

the only haven


as i frequently do on fridays i join rebecca brooks at  haiku my heart 
won't you join us?

    Yes I did. Mine is 'companion' both noun and verb. If you are spiritually inclined check out Abbey of the Arts website and look for articles on choosing a word. Thanks for your visit!
