I know everyone is thinking and talking about Thanksgiving and Christmas but i have had the new year, twentytwelve (2012), on the brain for a while. Not only will Mr. Pancakes and i celebrate 4 years together but we will be celebrating 52 weeks and 365 days of love! We will celebrate a year of being (thyroid) cancer free. There will be many firsts for us in 2012 and for this i am grateful and looking forward to the new year.
I am also anxiously anticipating the new year because of of the plans for this little blog here: The Adventures of Team Pancakes! I believe blogland is such an awesome place to learn from each other.
And in the new year, i hope to turn my little corner of the blogland into a forum in which we can learn from one another and grow, not only as individuals but as a collective group. As women, wives, mothers and whatever other titles we hold , we have so much knowledge and wisdom to share with another and in the new year, i hope we can come together to do this.
Even prior to the new year, i hope to start this sharing and learning from one another via guest posting.
One of my first blogger buddies, the lovely Lady K, of
A Single Mother's Journey, is starting an awesome series on finding love, not only within yourself but with others. At the end of the day, Team Pancakes believes that love begins within and then it emanates out to others! We also believe
love is not hard work if you put the time into it from the beginning. I was honored the fab Lady K asked me to be part of her series and i cannot wait as she begins it TODAY! Here's another avenue in which we can learn from one another.
Please
STOP BY!
In addition to joining others around blogland....i will be inviting others to share how they are living, loving and laughing in their lives. Life and love is being celebrated everyday around us and i've come across people doing this in the most beautiful kinds of ways. There is so much negativity around us that i cannot wait to generate an opportunity to celebrate the positivity that is generated through LOVE!
The series will include: 52 Weeks of Love and Living Our Vows.
Yesterday i spoke about being present and more focused on the important things and areas in my life.
In additional to focusing on my personal goals...i hope to focus my blogging experience as well.
I hope you will join and share along the journey with me.
The only way to grow is to learn something new.
The best way to do this is to learn from people that are living their experiences.
And living it well!
I read a quote from Oprah recently that has stayed with me:
"who you're meant to be evolves from where you are right now."
In keeping with the theme of being focused...
if who i am meant be evolves from where i am right now...
and i don't necessarily like where i am...
i can and will choose to grow through learning something different and new
so i can evolve and be where i am meant to be!
Remember God gives us opportunities but he expects some kind of action(s) from us.
This was an epiphany for me.
I can choose to be different.
I can choose to learn and grow.
I can choose to use my blog as a forum of learning and growth.
For myself and for others!
I can choose to live, laugh and love!
***if you read to this far...thank you...
