Happy New Year!

I was already very excited for 2010 to arrive back in November. I just felt so positive about the new year and the new decade. 6 days into the new year and the excitement still buzzes very high. I had let go of energies that did not sustain me towards the last half of 2009 and laid down a new foundation that I know will grow and thrive in 2010. There’s plenty of forward movement.

A few things that I want to materialize this year:

1. Do more with international microlending with Kiva, create a program where a percentage of my soap sales will go towards supporting a woman owned business abroad. I will soon be creating a page in this blog to talk more about this project.

2. Make more soap! Take more soapmaking classes. Yes, soap to give away and soap to sell! Learn how to make my own bath & body products.

3. For work, taking my graphic design skills to the next level. I’ve been just milling around in this side of the world and it’s time for me to take it up a couple of notches.

4. Hike, bike, hike, bike. I want to spend more time outdoors this year hiking, biking and meditating outdoors to feed my spirit.

5. Continue to deepen my spiritual practice through Reiki and where ever this road takes me this year.

6. Read more, more books! more blogs! Soapmaking books! Graphic design books!

7. Take lots of photos this year! I want to get back into photography. Soapmaking has took up a majority of my time but I need to squeeze in an hour or two of photography a week back into my life.

What an exciting year of expansion and abundance for all!!! I look forward to experiencing this with those in my life and with the rest of the world.

Happy New Year!!!
