Gratitude #1: Sankalpa Search
I made a C25K goal and I did in fact run a 5K with my siblings, but sadly the slogging tapered off soon thereafter. I made another goal to get something written, and I do have an article, written with pals, out there in SubmissionLand, hoping to be published in 2020. Cross your fingers for us, please.
I blogged 145 times, up from the past 3 years, but nowhere near my 2005 record of 315 blog entries. Reading over my 2019 entries was a bit ho hum. I wrote a few amusing entries, but not that many. I wrote a lot about Thirdland, and I did enjoy reading about some of the projects we worked on in Room 200, but I want to do more creative writing next year. Maybe I do. Not sure, actually.
We saw 61 movies, 31 of them on the big screen. (Favorites: Tell Me Who I Am, Give Me Liberty, Honeyland, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, The Raft, Echo in the Canyon, Yesterday). Definitely want to see more movies in 2020.
My sankalpa of 2019 was kind of a bust. It had to do with thinking on each day as an adventure. Really didn't work out since most days I recited my sankalpa in the morning and then followed it up with "Well, I guess."
So it's time for trying out a new Sankalpa for 2020. I really liked my 2018 Sankalpa which was "I'm a magician lady." That really brought a smile to my face every day. Do you remember that it came from the title of a painting? So, I may need to rip something off from the world of the Creatives for 2020. I've a few in mind that I'll noodle around with this month here. We'll all probably enjoy that quite a bit.
The gratitude challenge is a good idea for the beginning of the year. Thanks, MM. I've got a lot of stuff to be grateful for, so why not give those things a shout out here on alittleleeway and start the year with some jubilation?
