R is for Rejuvenated...
When I first embarked on selecting what I would blog about
during the A to Z Challenge I shied away from selecting a theme and without
even realizing it, my posts all began to focus around keeping the mind calm and
feeding one’s mind, body and soul with healthy choices and habits. I have a new
sense of rejuvenation in refocusing on my writing career while holding a full
time job with The Salvation Army. By having the steady full time paycheck I
have begun to realize I can focus well on both while not sacrificing anything
in return.
What have you done lately to rejuvenate your life? Thanks
for visiting!
Be sure

I love your theme. I think our primary purpose should be to choose healthy habits and positive steps towards becoming better versions of ourselves.

#AtoZChallenge - R is for Reflux
Amen!
DeleteHi Donna.
ReplyDeleteWhen last I took part in this challenge, and actually managed to complete it, it was because I had chosen a theme and followed through. Last year I didn't have a theme nor did I complete the challenge so, this year I only entered my blog for the challenge at the last minute with a theme chosen. It has been one of the most challenging and enlightening things I've done in ages. The research put into writing about something I really don't know much about, even though I thought I was quite clued up, has taken a whole lot of time and thought. The result has been that I've become way more knowledgeable about my subject than before and I've enjoyed writing about it immensely. I think that maybe what you are asking about?
Very pleased to hear you are going along strong and motivated.
Huge blessings from a long time friend in Africa, Geoff.
Delighted to hear that the challenge has been enlightening for you! Keep up the great work. Lovely to connect!
DeleteWhat a great job, working for the Salvation Army. Glad you feel rejuvenated regarding your writing. This A to Z Challenge has rejuventated me, even though it's not been easy. Lovely post. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteGreat place to work! They certainly walk the talk in such a positive way! Glad you like my post!
DeleteI actually took yesterday to go to a presentation at Stanford University. I had to clear my head of the #atzChallenge and get a different perspective.
ReplyDeleteExcellent and good for you! Hope it was a terrific presentation! Would love to hear all about it!
DeleteI enjoyed your thoughts and I agree it's important to rejuvenate. Hemingway said it was important not to empty the well. I read and turn to the Bible.
ReplyDeleteSound advice to turn to the Bible! I'm delighted you enjoyed my post!
DeleteYay! I love to read about your rejuvenation! Your posts have been wonderful and very helpful to me as it is easy to lose sight of tending to one's mind, body and spirit in the chaos of life. You have brought me a rejuvenated sense of self!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy that you are enjoying my posts and find them helpful!
DeleteI actually just accepted a very good full time position, so even though I tried not to worry about my finances, I know I really don't have to worry about them now, and I can focus on other things!
ReplyDeleteYou go girl! Congratulations!
