UBC Day 4 - My One Word for 2013

Day 4 of the Ultimate Blogging Challenge

I was actually going to blog on another prompt when I came across this post  from Elaine at Tea Leaves on the One Word Challenge.

I thought it would be fun to take part and watch 2013 unfold around my word.

I've chosen "Abundance" as my word for 2013.

This is a word I've often affirmed in my mind, but I think committing it to paper seems to make it more potent with the Universe.

"Abundance" usually conjures up visions of great wealth, but for me abundance is much more than that.

For me abundance is both giving and receiving love, joy, peace, wealth, success/achievement, hope, faith. It is abundance in good health, bountiful nature and most of all, spiritual abundance - connecting with Spirit and Blessings from Spirit.

I am so excited about my word and look forward to watching it unfold in my life.  And from experience I know that it will unfold in totally unexpected ways - often beyond my wildest imaginations - more often than not, totally awesome.


What's your word for 2013?  Please share.

The universe operates through dynamic exchange… giving and receiving are different aspects of the flow of energy in the universe. and in our willingness to give that which we seek, we keep the abundance of the universe circulating in our lives.

~Deepak Chopra

So to start off and get the abundance moving,  I wish you all an abundant and amazing 2013.

UBC Day 3 - A pair of jeans

Day 3 of the Ultimate Blogging Challenge and I have writer's block.

I couldn't come up with a single thing to write about (aaarrrrggghhhh).

I looked around for a prompt but I've already written on those prompts, so eventually I decided to just blog on something I did today.

This morning my friend and I went out for lunch and as the Christmas - New Year sales are still on, we also browsed around at the shops.

I tore my last pair of jeans that I've had for years so I was on the lookout for a pair - but no luck in my usual brand. :(

And then this pair caught my eye

I've been wearing the wrong brands as this pair fits me so well. It's taken me years to find one that fits so well. :)

I am so thrilled. It even has a bit of bling (though you can't really see that in the picture) and I love a bit of bling! 

It has a bit of stretch too so it's very comfortable and they were 30% off the usual price. 

Now I just hope they will last.

Can't wait to wear them.

Wish you a happy day and if you're going shopping, I hope you find what you're looking for at a bargain.

Warm Regards

UBC Day 2 - Haiku - Onwards and New

Ultimate Blogging Challenge - Day 2

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words. 

~ Robert Frost 

It's been a while since I wrote some Haiku so thought it was time to get back into it.

Haiku Heights - New

Sensational Haiku Wednesday - Onward

A Happy New Year

Onwards to your dreams come true

And love, peace and joy

Let the past stay there

Look onwards to the future

New dreams, goals and hopes

Rising to new heights

Belief in self to achieve

Onwards and upwards
