Favorites

In this world of busyness, have you taken the time to slow down and self discover?  I find myself stuck in a rut of being a mom and a wife and have forgotten what I am truly about.  Things I love and Things I don't.  Today I begin a journey of self discovery.  What makes me happy?  These are a few of my favorite things:

Favorite Activity: Scrapbooking and spending time with my whole family
Favorite Animal: I have to say horses.  I have always found them beautiful.
Favorite Book: I love all devotionals.  But my favorite book would have to be a book titled the
       Resolution for Women.  This is a book about becoming the woman God intended us to be.
Favorite Candy Bar: Well, my nemesis is Reeses Peanut Butter Cups
Favorite Color:  I go with maroon.  This color is soothing to me
Favorite Family Activity:  I really enjoy going bowling.  While it can be a little too competitive for   
        some.  I find it to be a physical activity that we all seem to enjoy
Favorite Holiday:  SHOCKING----Christmas.  I love everything about this holiday
Favorite Movie: 50 First Dates.  I love the comedy aspect of this movie
Favorite Place to Go:  In the past I would have said Branson.  But now I find I love Kansas City. 
        Some of my favorite people live down there.  It is always a good time
Favorite Season of the Year:  I love Spring.  It is a sign of new life.  The weather is usually good.
Favorite Song:  My new favorite song is Chain Breaker by Zach Williams.
Favorite Thing I Did This Year:  Still early in the year, but our family Easter celebration will always
        be a favorite of mine


I have babbled:  But, I will take this list and begin to ponder how to do things that make me happy to be me.  I often take the opportunity to please others and leave myself out of the equation.  It's time to slow down and become Julie again in all my splendor.

Thanks for taking the time to read.....Until next time, Take care and God Bless!

I think we all feel that way sometimes. I too wonder if I'm making progress or just on the wheel...

If it helps, you are one of my favorites :) and FAVORITE sister! Hang in there and stop to give yourself credit for the things you are doing right.

Love you

Ps. I'm glad KC made the list! It is better when you visit :)!!!

Happy 2024! Many leap into the year with joy as a new beginning has come. But for me, I have been in the depths of a deep depressive Bipol...
