This week was Discovering a Sense of Adventure.
I thought it would be a bit more interesting based on the title, but still seem to be having a bit of a hard time getting into this one.
I also seemed to have a lot going on this week, so I didn't dedicate much time as I have in the past few. I also slacked pretty good at my nightly journaling. I did get a few nights in, but probably more missed than successful.
It talks about not ignoring signs that maybe you're not doing what fulfills you. For example - you may be cool with your job, but you really have a yearning for something else. Follow that. I don't seem to be having that issue right now. I'm just more lost and unfocused I feel like.
One task was get a sketch pad and go places and sketch what you see. Well - this girl doesn't draw. So I grabbed me a little notebook that fits in my purse and I'll write descriptively what I'm seeing.
One that does pop up in my life a lot is "Childlike Enthusiasm". My mom has it. It's what makes her so special. And I think I have it a little. I highlighted this in the book which grabbed my attention:
"No surprise that it was Picasso himself who remarked, ""W are all born children. The trick is how to remain one"". I love that!
Another task was what I would "secretly" like to do. Well, I'm not very secretive but a few surprised me:
Be a housewife. Yup. That was one of them. And at this point in life I really would love that. I don't want to work anymore. LOL. What also came up a lot was I want to live in nature/beach/on a winery. We then were supposed to write a fantasy as if one was real and I wrote about waking up one morning to a sunrise over a winery. Makes me want this so badly.
My Artists Date this week was another pedicure. No picture though. I do get these on the regular but I also am trying to give myself a break and realize that I don't have to do a different Artists Date each week.
So Week 4 check. Nothing too much jumped out this week. Hoping again, for some more interesting insights.
