Easy Change Strategies (12)

Back again from my trip to Asheville, NC and Jonesborough, TN. A real "get away"! Every once in a while it is important to do something just for yourself. Do something you haven't done. Experience something you always wanted but haven't yet - that is living the change you wish for.
I attended the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, TN. It is amazing to see, how some people can shape the story they are telling. It is wonderful to hear their story and be transported to different times and areas to relive the story.
It also reminded me how important it is to stay in the company of people who share your interests. While change is enevitable, there is also the need to keep somethings unchanged.
We need an "anchor" or "harbor" in our life. Make sure you know who or what that is for you. For me it is "stories" - telling and listening to and being with the tellers.
I also am trying to get back in touch with friends from times past. Hearing how they are and using the new digital medias to re-connect with them. Hooray for the modern times!
