If not now...when?


The last evening of February 28, 2013. The perfect day to begin sharing my N2 Simple Abundance life.  I hope that you will join me and share what you have discovered or are discovering on your journey. Since 1997 I've been N2 trying to discover my authentic self and it wouldn't...couldn't have happened without Sarah Ban Breathnach's loving inspiring book 'Simple Abundance'. 

Kinda going to go backwards (from where I am now...in my birthday month of February) because I am so excited.
This photo doesn't touch how the 'real letter' looked.
On the most beautiful angel stationary I completed the assignment of writing myself a letter of kudos of all the 'right choices' I have made and am trying to make. The truth is that I have been striving to live the life I imagined. I've learned through lots of trail and error that we can create the life we imagine by really loving God, believing  and having confidence in God.
God is at the top of my list and I have shouted 'for the world to hear' all that He has done and is doing for me. Marvelous...YES! The letter has been put away...until a day when I need a lift of encouragement.

One assignment suggest that you 'sometime through the year'  purchase yourself a birthday present, wrap it up beautifully and put away to be opened by you on your birthday. A little corny...well it's something very worth while doing I can testify. Of course it would be the perfect present because who knows best what you really want? Who knows best what it would be to tickle your fancy but you. This was sort of a double assignment and you find out more in the photo caption.
My Hobby Lobby 40%off coupon bought a delightful little frame
A beautiful birthday card which included a teabag was attached.
I mentioned this was a double assignment as I framed a picture of me as a child. This to me is a reminder of the 'little girl' within. As I shared with a friend, this is a photo of me before my Mother and real Dad fell out of love. I look happy don't I. I vaguely remember the entire family getting really dressed up for pictures. This was a really big deal as I had three brothers and two sisters.
