Spiritual Goal #4: Prayer Journal

Well I started this one on 2/29/12 and I am doing well so far  I have only missed one day.  I am almost done with my first shawl and I’m just debating now whether to get a friend of mine who is a minister to bless it.

Spiritual Goal #4: Keep a spiritual/prayer journal for 6 months.

Well, I had started a spiritual journal some time ago, but really neglected it.  I decided to start another one, since I’ve renewed my interest in achieving 101 Things in 1001 Days.  For now, I am keeping it as a private journal.  Perhaps in time I will open it up.

Started my spiritual journal today

Well, ok, technically I restarted it since I started one earlier this year, but I did such a poor job keeping it going last time that I don’t really count it.

So, my six months for this goal starts August 20, 2010.  I earnestly hope that this helps me refocus on my spiritual life; I have gotten away from the way I was raised.   I trust that the foundation my mother gave me is still there, just dusty!  My intention is to track my growth and my spiritual journey.

New list is coming along nicely…

I finally had a few moments to reconsider my priorities and my goals for the time period.  This is a good start for me and gives me a good base to work from – lol, maybe I’ll even get motivated to actually start on more of my goals.

I have continued to work on some of the goals that made the jump from my old list, like teaching my son to read.  He’s coming along nicely, which is good since he heads to kindergarten in the fall.  I’m also still working on praying twice a day and meditating twice a day, though I think I might actually mark that last one as done.  I do that most of the time now, even if briefly.  That’s made a big difference in my stress level, overall, I think.

All in all, I think I’m doing well in terms of getting my thoughts together and putting together a good list.  Some of these goals may not technically meet the “terms” of this project, but I think they do from my own perspective and in terms of the issues I’m facing right now – and hey, its MY list…lol, I’m going to do this MY way.
