A List of Wishes

written in the Past Tense

Rachel Hollis swears by writing a list of 5 gratitudes followed up by at least 10 goals you’re working on ~~~BUT you write your goals as though you already did them. Then day by day you let this practice work magic over you.

So I did it.

It went something like…

Today I’m grateful for:

1. snuggles with my hubby

2. a morning cup with all my children

3. combining a starter for sourdough on my counter

4. a walk at dusk

5. waking up to a tidy home

Ten dreams I made happen:

1. I had a great time reading and discussing “The Omnivore’s Dilemma” with my hubby.

2. I made a beautiful anniversary date on our patio —unforgettable.

3. I let the school know of our upcoming plans so my child’s absence wouldn’t be a problem.

4. I posted on Sub-stack about my manuscript hobby.

5. I contacted a pelvic floor therapist.

6. I finished the course “On Narcissism” at Peterson Academy.

7. I worked in the present authoring suit of the self-authoring program.

8. I finished reading “The Ballad of the White Horse” and “Casti Canubii” and wrote quotes that glinted from both.

9. I was humble, honest, self-aware and found the reality of my ideal day.

10. I felt truly pretty and had the best Holy Week in my life yet.

11. I acknowledged the circles of community surrounding me and ‘let go’ inside God to shed my lie of loneliness on the cross of Christ’s Good Friday agony.

12. I am an exceptional mother.

13. I embody the playful authority I witnessed between Jordan and Tammy Peterson.

14. I metaphorically buried myself under stacks of words written in the deep here on Sub-stack with the expression of my list of wishes. Deus vult!
