April marks the 15th anniversary of my blog, so during the A-Z blogging challenge, I will be sharing previous posts from over 2,100 I have written.
Through the years, I have occasionally written a Today post. In these posts, I have a picture I have taken, along with reminders of ways I want to live my life better. I liked looking back through these, and I think I should make it a practice again. Below are a few of my Today posts.
************************
This is part of Wally and Theodore's tree house that Ward built years ago. As you can see, the tree is slowly growing around one of the supports and has pushed up a floorboard. I need to think about whether or not I have a "tree" slowly changing me. Am I letting outside forces determine where I'm going and where I'm going to end up? I'm not sure, but I do know that if I don't think about it, they very well might.

Some days are more productive than others, and it usually involves being organized and having a plan. I have a plan, so I am not going to get dizzy trying to get things done today.

Some days it is easier to just go with the flow, but today I am going to put forth the extra effort to stand out from my status quo. I'm going to do that by trying something out of my comfort zone. So many things to choose from...

Sometimes I get too caught up in the details and forget the big picture. Today, I am going to look from a distance so I can get a new perspective on things.

Until next time...
So it's like a diary of reminders to live better but with photos. I like it. I try to think of positive things each but I forget to do it.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day.
It's so easy for our minds to go to the negative. It takes work to look for the positive and for it to become a habit. When I posted Today posts, that helped me look for positive personal inspiration. They were good reminders for me.
DeleteThese ring true for me too.
ReplyDeleteI think I was giving myself good advice in my Today posts that could apply to others, too. It was useful for me to reread these. There are many inspirational quotes on the internet these days, but I mostly ignore them. When I put these together, I paid attention.
DeleteSuch an interest word to choose for T today :) some subtle reminders too in this post
ReplyDeleteGood luck with rest of a to z
Only 6 more letters to go in the A-Z Challenge. I think I'm gonna make it. :)
DeleteThese are a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI think so, too. They help me reset my thinking, even if it only last a short while.
DeleteI enjoyed your today post!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kathy.
DeleteI really like these Today posts and the affirmations you've listed. I wonder what happened to the tree house?
