I plan on doing the unthinkable in 2009. I am going to gain as much as I can and plan to steer clear of things and thoughts when it comes to losing.
I have been losing for years and where does it get me? Lose so much that you don’t even recognize yourself. Some days I have to glance at my driver’s license just to make sure I am really here!
Nope, in 2009, I plan on gaining a lot and I am not afraid to say it.
I plan on gaining while I am sleeping. I plan on gaining while driving the car; I plan on gaining while going to the movies, while sitting still and I plan on gaining while slipping on the ice.
Yes, I am going to gain so much that even I will have trouble seeing the old me.
So what will I gain this year? I think I need to pile on more of this to be more of me:
AudacitynBoldnessnCouragenDeterminatio
Eloquence by MoonlightnFriskynGrateful that I have a whole year to get through this list
HumorousnInquisitive little thing, isn’t she?
Jaundice…hmmm….maybe JoynKnowledge
Lightheartedness has nada to do with a scale
Mellow and mildness
Naughty, but nice
Openness
Piss and Vinegar (which I hope is not a salad dressing also)
Questioning
RestfulnSteadfast even on those days that just drive you to the brink
Tenacious yet tender
UnwaveringnVexing but charming
Worldly wise with eyes wide ope
Xray visionary
YouthfulnessnZen like.

ec: Before we delve into the subject of Intuition and how it has impacted your life, in all areas of your life, can you give us your definition of Intuition?
