Healthy, Natural, Active

Lately, I have been working hard at changing my lifestyle.  Really, it is a paradigm shift in how I think of myself and my life.  As I picture my life and the things that are important to me, I see family, fun, love, faith, friendships, creativity, accomplishment, joy, gratitude.  I want to really LIVE my life.  I don't want to sit by and watch it just happen.  I want to be proactive. I want to make the most of every moment.  And for me that means I need to have the energy and attitude to make that happen.

So the new outlook I am choosing to focus on for my lifestyle is Healthy, Natural and Active.

I have been studying about healthy alternatives;  what I eat and why, exercise, natural health and positive mental attitude .  I have learned that the more natural and healthy I eat, the better I feel.  I have also figured out that exercise in whatever form I like at the time makes me feel refreshed, alive and happy.  I feel great when I shop for local, organic and in season.  I  think that things must be better the way God created them.  Right?  I set aside time to focus on the good things in my life and focus on being grateful.  And I am learning how to laugh at myself and not take myself too seriously.

Anyway, now I want to grow my own vegi's and I want to start a compost pile.  My husband thinks I'm crazy.  Maybe I am.  But that's ok.  I like being crazy.

This is my dream garden!  This will be in my backyard someday.
