I just love list writing for my journal time. When I am pressed for time (which is often the case), writing a list is a quick way to access feelings, events, situations, options, passions,etc. It can be a way to tap into our intuition; that wise voice from within- especially if we don’t think too hard about it and just write.

Don’t edit, Write down quickly whatever wants to come out.

Sometimes patterns emerge or clarity about a situation in your life will surface. Sometimes it just chisels down what is truly important in life. This is our lives. Why waste precious hours, weeks, months, and years on stuff that in the end really doesn’t matter a whole lot?

I like to ask myself a question, and then write my list .

This morning’s question is : “What is important”?

1. My health
2. Having someone to love and share my life with
3. A comfortable, beautiful, and peaceful home to live in.
4. Family and friends
5. Meaningful work
6. Connecting with others
7. Peace
8. Good food
9. Adventure
10. Growing and learning new things

Your turn.

Have a blessed day.
