New Projects For 2017....Time For Dreams!

12/28/2016

        As I get older, the years just pass faster. Last I recall,I was complaining about the "too warm for me" temperatures and enjoying the long days,then Fall came,(which I love!) and next thing I know I'm wrapping Christmas gifts and putting up a tree.
          Now,we're all about to enter a NEW year. I don't like "resolutions" as too many people automatically set it up in their minds as a "doomed to fail" thing. So....instead of using the "R" word, let's replace that with the word "dreams". What do you dream about accomplishing,creating,being,doing,for 2017?
     I'd like you to pick no more than three things. Keep it simple,small,and definatly do-able. It can be all uke oriented,or not.
         As for me,I've been working with some creative ideas in the garden of my mind. They have to do with making ukulele accessories. The straps I've made to sell have done OK....but aren't moving as quickly in my store as I'd like. So,the Universe gve me a couple of other ideas I'm really wanting to try,and I started making patterns last night. Yes,I'll be on my sewing machine again! I'll post pics and listings as soon as I have these projects finished.

 So Dream # 1 is making ukulele accessories.
 
      Dream #2 is to pursue Tai Chi with regularity and consistancy.
  The Universe and my guardian angels let me know they wanted me to do Tai Chi-so much so that when I ordered a non related to Tai Chi book online, a Tai Chi book for beginners arrived instead.
  At first,I thought the store had simply sent the wrong book. Then, two days later,the book I had actually ordered arrived in the mail. I was told to keep the Tai Chi book for free. I never take signs from the Universe like this lightly....but I have wound up skipping days. So- daily doing Tai Chi is on my list.

  Dream #3 is to complete the two online courses I just signed up for. One is about the healing use of colors,and the other is a course taught by Doreen Virtue. Both courses will have an effect on my teaching music.

            And there we have my "big Three Dreams" for 2017.

   So ponder what your three dreams are for 2017.....and don't let the naysayers,the critics, or crazymakers know about them. Pland have more magic in them when you keep them to yourself,and silently progress in your doing them.

Wishing You All The Happiest Of Holidays!

      I wanted to take a moment on this Christmas Eve morning to wish one & all a Very Happy Holiday,in whatever tradition(s) you celebrate it in.
       In posting this,I'd like to plant an idea seed in the minds of my readers: I'd like for us all to very much be aware now & thru the upcoming year to spread LIght,Love,Mirth,and Joy. I'm sure you are aware of all the fears going thru people right now,especially since November. Folks are really feeding their fears and spreading it on social media like a huge virus. Daily I'm seeing posts about the darkest moments of history,how the world is allegedly going down the drain,etc.
      It's important to realize fears are usually based on a yet to be formed future. People's imaginations run overtime and not in healthy ways. We need to help remedy this. As ukulele players,we can do this simply by sharing our playing & uplifting others thru it.
     If you have friends on social media and they are constantly ranting about history repeating itself,do yourself a favor and quit following their feeds. (On FB you can remain friends but not see what they're posting)
     Sadly,I've had to do this with one individual who has went into a mania about posting about his now being convinced that WWII is about to be repeated. In a paradoxical way,he's done more to bring to mind the darkest moments of that time by sharing historical videos showing the horrors of that era on a near daily basis than he has to promote global goodwill,love,and peace. Thoughts are things. Energy goes where attention flows.
     So lets do ourselves all a favor and focus on compassion,love,mutual respect,and being the kindest people we can possibly be. We need to do this now,and through the coming years.
