I think I need more joy and levity in my life. Because I’ve been walking around in a fog for the last umpteen years, I wonder if I’ve lost my zest for living since I suppressed it for so long? It’s in my control to get the zest back so I’m wondering how to go about it. Now all I need is the courage to go for it – those body image issues keep creeping in so it’s going to take some fancy self-pep talking.
I’m just ready to move on from being so serious about this transformation. If you have any ideas for me, please write me a comment! I can use all the help I can get 😉
Have been watching all the very serious thoughts which I think are a process to get to where you want to be, but every once in a while, you just have to go for it and make your self happy…..as the Nike mantra “JUST DO IT”!! Love you so much, Glad you got here!!!! Hugs…
I feel the same way! I was thinking about this same thing. Here are ideas I had for myself, maybe they’ll spark something in you:
Zumba class – I love loud music w an urban beat. Plus exercise feels good!
Karaoke night: love to sing!
Decorate my home: I’m working on this and shopping for new pieces is fun.
Get make up done by a professional: I wear MAC make up and they’ll do it for free. Fun to get new ideas.
Can’t wait to see what ideas others have!
I’ve been thinking about living a zestful life all day. I think it’s a good wake up call for everyone. It’s easy to forget to be excited about the small or big things. Even simple things like the birds singing or butterflies fluttering about. Just the beauty of nature. A beautiful sunset, or flowers blooming in a garden. Thanks for reminding me to take the time to be aware and add zest to my life. A little sprinkle everyday will work. Love you! Marian
