Y-yes .^^. Is the only one I have of Suyri .oo. (rococo~ made it for me *blush*)
Will ask what you decided captured the essence of living on vacation .^^. ( could use one ^^; hehe)

I really like it!

I'll do a journal of the vacation principles I captured, or a blog post with a link in a journal, but here's the first one I wrote down:

"Live Willfully"
Live willfully committed to being fully present and engaged in the wonder of every moment of life.

Each on has side notes (examples/tips/etc.). For this one: "Starting today, commit to living the rest of your life as if on vacation at the beach. Say it out loud now and then: 'I'm on vacation!'"

That's how it started -- I realized that by just stopping and marveling at the wonder of things around you makes all the difference. So, I just wrote that down to remind myself and then it occurred to me to write more such little reminders. Now when I feel trapped by things or something, I just quote an applicable title or I say "I'm on vacation!" I haven't decided if it helps or not, but it's fun to say out loud in the middle of a meeting!

I did a blog page: http://wolf.ishly.me/spend-the-rest.....e-on-vacation/

i will say i have not yet tried everything .<<. hehe
but that is a wonderful way to live life... and honestly, i think i may be trying a few of those in my daily life .^^. *wags tail* t-thank you for linking~

A LONG time ago, my dad started conscientiously working on improving one thing about himself every year. Just small things in his behavior. He stuck with it, and although he always was a good man as far back as I can remember, we could all see him improve even more as the years went by. That's how I plan on approaching my list: pick one or two things that seem the most important for me to work on and improve in those areas this year, then move on to one or two more next year.

Anyway, glad you like the list!

thats really amazing .oo. i-if i am honest.. i have the worst time sticking wif anything .xx. most stuff starts wif new years... and stops somewhere before the end of the month *flops over* but i think you got a bit of a spark going... there are a few things i would like to revisit and try harder to achieve .^^. *wags tail*

You can do it! Post your successes, I'll be your fan club and give you proper applaws! *happy tail wags*

.^^. i will try my best~ going to start exercising again for one... which is harder to post... buutt i want to start drawing more again~ which you will hopefully see a lot more of .^^. woof~
