Time flies when you're having fun!

Wow! I cannot believe it's been 2 whole weeks since my last entry. I've just re-read "Surrender", my last entry on January 21st and I have to say, I think I did.

Something has definitely changed since I wrote that! Something within me shifted. Whatever it was, life's pace has changed and so has my schedule. All of a sudden, pretty much over night, it has filled up. Filled up with things that I want to do! It was almost a tangible thing... that shift in energy. Quite remarkable. I just took a scan of my calendar, reviewing the last two weeks and what I've been up to. I've wanted to blog on several occasions but I just couldn't find the time...if I did find myself with a moment to myself I was too tired and couldn't quite get my words together so it never happened, but actually, although I've missed logging my thoughts here, it was a good thing. I was being present and I was living my new life. The things I've been doing have been varied and some have been a completely new experience...even somewhat surreal at times. All have been fun in their own way and some have been very enlightening. Most importantly, some of them have been repeated since because they were so good and will become a regular part of my life here.

I have a lot to thank the AWA for. Much of my activity has been as a result of joining and attending a wide selection of events, ranging from Afternoon Tea Buffets at a posh hotels, hiking, photography outings, a guided tour of Macau and a presentation on feng shui. I've met some interesting people and even made a few friends...just when I was beginning to wonder if I ever would. As usual, it just took a certain amount of letting go.

Equally though, some of the paths I've started to explore, I've found for myself or have been nudged towards since I opened my eyes and began reading the signs! Life is good. Life is still challenging but then again, it always has been, there are just degrees of challenge and how much we are able to embrace that challenge depends on all sorts of things; our health, our state of mind, the support networks we have around us....and without commenting on any of those things in relation to my life right now, I am pleased to say that I'm enjoying this particular challenge...finally, it's fun!
