I Choose To

Oh how peaceful and quiet this blog will be again… I’m trying to regulate traffic: I’d one post still that attracted lots of traffic because it was directly linked to an experiment I took part in two years ago. I’ve moved that post to the blog on my business website, so traffic will be redirected to the proper source from the website it was linked to. I like my peace and quiet especially when I feel that what I write is too personal to share with certain people *wink*. Although I often choose to keep that to myself anyway…

I’m getting rid of links to the past because I want to start with a clean slate and live in the ‘now’. No more referring to and living in the past, I’m through with that and it’s about time that things are put away in the drawers since it’s all unnecessary ballast that I no-longer wish to carry around with me. Been busy last week and there’s still more stuff in the pipeline that I can’t tell about yet but whenever I had a moment I’d been reading my ebook -and listening to its audio version at the same time- while taking notes.

It’s extremely helpful but it’s a bit of a project… one not to be taken lightly… It’s necessary to write a proper plan and think about certain issues and subjects while trying -at the same time- to reprogram your mind and your way of thinking. And if those ways and convictions have been engrained for donkey years than it’s quite the challenge trying to change that. But… I noticed that it works: it makes me feel great if I manage to struggle through another chapter, writing down what I choose/want to remember.

Today I need to wish to update my folio and convert it to a pdf file so I can send it out. And I have to would like to write a letter as well. See how I still make the same mistakes? I don’t have to do anything: I choose to do something *wink* That’s the kind of thing this book teaches you and it feels kind of liberating if you succeed in making these ‘simple’ changes because somehow you can feel the weight being lifted of your shoulders… I like this approach and I guess it’s what I need in my life right now…

I -once again- had to deal with a few disappointments last week (when do I get that well-deserved break? *raising hands to heaven*) but I’m not giving up… far from it… So I’m off again because spring is here, the sun is shining, gorgeous spring flowers like Snowdrops (my favourite) poke their heads above the ground and it lifts my spirit. And while I’m in this mood, I’d like to design a new pdf folio, write a letter and make a follow-up call later today about a new exciting project…

p.s. I’m not around much these days so it might take a bit longer for me to reply to emails or comments…

Gorgeous Snowdrops

Georgiana Scott Design

The weather has been great again over the weekend so I spent a few hours relaxing in the sun on Saturday. I have a nice Indo (=Eurasian) tan, I was surprised that after half an hour I could see an amazing difference already when I moved my ring. A ring by designer Georgiana Scott that I bought at Fenwick on November eight last year.

That day I went to Bond Street with CS. to shop for xMas gifts. She wanted to buy some quality tights so we ended up at Fenwick and while she was at the counter to pay for her things I had a look around the jewellery section. I was only browsing and not thinking of buying anything but I instantly fell in love with this ring and showed it to CS.

Although I was in doubt about spending money, I bought it and never regretted that I did. I wanted to have something nice for me: a treat, but I also wanted to buy something from the money my dad left me, something special from him. Ever since that day, I’ve received nothing but compliments and I’m happy that I listened to my gut feeling.

The ring has five loose rings with different widths around the main centre ring which also holds them all together. When I move my hand you can hear the soft jingling sound of the loose rings, like mini-bangles. There’s only two of these in the world: it seems to be a unique collection especially designed for Fenwick not available anywhere else.

It puts a smile on my face whenever I hear it jingle…
