Another FRESH SLATE to write upon...or to repeat the same old mistakes. Sometimes it seems like it's difficult to change patterns that are somewhat ingrained....In making resolutions, I think we have the opportunity to examine our life and see what are our REAL PRIORITIES are. What is important?
It seems to me for me it's RELATIONSHIPS:
1. It's my relationship with ME, my body, spirit and mind
2. Next are my FAMILY relations-communicating, serving, encouraging those I can touch or reach out to.
3. Service to my community, friends and church
What else is left? Can't eat the whole elephant at one setting. So I'm starting with
#1 ME
A. BODY-definitely want to exercise, walk more and eat healthier, regular checkups, etc.
B. SPIRIT-daily prayer, study of the scriptures and repentance are necessary, listening to the Spirit and following promptings.
C. MIND-being curious, learning new things, taking new classes, teaching, writing, being aware.
#2 FAMILY
A. LISTENING-to spouse, asking questions, sending value and love
B. COMMUNICATING-visiting and reaching out via Internet
C. SERVING-helping in ways when asked
D. ENCOURAGING-never giving up on others
#3 SERVICE
A.COMMUNITY-teaching classes to others, giving away my books
B. FRIENDS-fun times together
C. CHURCH-magnify my calling in RS, Indexing and compiling genealogy
What's on YOUR LIST?
