Hi there! Remember me? I have been absent for a while from my blog. I know that by writing this post, I’m breaking several blogging rules. One of these rules is to not blog about why you’ve been absent. Also, another rule is about writing about things that are evergreen (things that stay topical forever). Well, if you know me well, you know that I’m about breaking the rules. Plus, I’m way too heart-centered to not care about my readers. This requires me to be honest. I am pretty honest about my life. But, to be completely honest, I don’t share everything publicly here that is going on in my life.
However, I feel guided to write about why I’ve been absent for a while. I just wasn’t inspired. I didn’t want to come write here unless I was inspired. This is the biggest mistake to make as a writer or really any kind of artist. It’s far better to write and then, become inspired as a result of your writing. This is what I tell a lot of my clients who do any type of artwork or things involving the creative process. I didn’t follow my own advice. I was waiting to be inspired when clearly, if I had just shown up at the page, things would have flowed.
I’ve needed time to regroup and recharge. The stressful challenges I’ve manifested since the end of 2008 have taken their toll on me on many levels. I’m working to see it as a time to practice what I’ve learned while on the spiritual path. It’s time to apply the wisdom and to also, walk my talk. It’s not always been easy. The path is not always filled with roses, but hey, I never expected the path to be worn in my travels. I’ve always been more about carving my own path.
At the end of 2009, I wasn’t guided to write the Daily Oracle Card part of this blog any longer. This was the meat and potatoes so to speak of my blog for a while. I’m really guided to take this blog into a new direction. I feel like it will be a more honest, authentic, and personal direction. I’m open to suggestion too as to what would help you. My intention has always been to be of service in writing this blog. So, hey, give me some feedback. I’d totally appreciate it.
I had a flare up of my ulcer, but it’s healing. I’ve been feeling more myself. I returned to my aerobic winter training (indoor cycling) this winter. It’s a great mood lifter and energizer. I do not race my bicycle any longer, but I realized the training effect has many benefits for me in the winter time. I also look forward to running once the weather warms up. I have a goal of running a half marathon in the next year and a half 
So, what about you? What’s new with you? How is your 2010 going so far? I’ve missed you guys and writing here. Thanks for your patience as I was absent. Even though I didn’t post much recently, I still sent love to all of my readers here from a distance.
Thanks and love,
Lisa
