I feel I've lost some of my sense of goals from New Years. The year has really taken its own spin of semi constant motion. And with Earth Day this past week, the rain, there's only remotely been a slow down to reflect and recollect. Given that there are only about 30 days left in the school year, the challenge is stay focused, engaged, but also motivated. It's important to take time to rejuvenate and recollect.
There have been many days of where it's hard to be and stay inspired. Or I don't always feel like myself, or I forget my goals and pursuits.
I think one of the main things to instill this recharge of inspiration is less or no social media use and prayer and silence. That feels the most inspiring, and during the Lenten season that's what I did. There was so much fruit coming from it and I know God blesses that.
As my sister and I have talked about, goals are so important and even crucial. They are essential because they are a life force and speak on purpose, motivation and inspiration.
So, some goals I have for myself:
-Continue to study German
-Continue to study and review Russian
-Read the book of Romans, Isaiah, and the Psalms in the Bible
-Learn and memorize a prayer in a foreign language (Russian, German or Chinese)
-Paint
-Craft/Knit
-Write creatively (short story)
I'm sure there's more, but this a good start and don't want to be overwhelmed.
