What Do I Wish To Make Time For?

18 Oct

Jiminy CricketWishcasting Wednesday: What do I wish to make time for?

I have three responses to this week’s prompt:

  1. More time playing
  2. More time accomplishing nagging tasks
  3. More time living in my body

Playing

For me, the hardest part of The Artist’s Way is the weekly artist’s date.  I have a very difficult time relaxing enough to just enjoy something pleasantly silly.  I’d like to spend a little more time planning and enjoying these dates, so I can give myself the opportunity to be joyful and exuberant and delighted and other such adjectives.

Nagging Tasks

At the same time, I’d also like to claim a little time each week to do the things I put off.  Like it or not, my car needs to be vacuumed, the kitchen cupboards need to cleaned, and my clothes need to be rearranged for winter.  I want to create a time to accomplish some of those things I’ve been procrastinating on so diligently.

Being In My Body

I over-think; I spend a lot of time in my head.  Every once in a while, I want to spend some of that time in my body.  I want to put my body’s needs first; I want act and react instead of wait and contemplate.  I’m pretty happy with my body, so I’d like to make sure I spend some time appreciating it and enjoying it.

    I sympathize! I wish for more time also! As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you also.

    It always makes me smile at myself when I realise that in order to play spontaneously, sometimes I have to schedule it in 😉 Perhaps the play will also help towards being in your body.

    As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you

    This is such a great post and such wonderful wishes. I definitely relate to the Artist’s Play Date issue – I have trouble with it too, but let go and have fun!

    As you wish for yourself, so I truly wish for you also.

    I love the way you broke down your wishes. They all made such perfect sense and I could relate to each one of them. As you wish for yourself, I wish for you as well.

    Oh, I can relate to all of your wishes! Don’t feel like your Artist Date has to be some big, special planned event. Some of my best ones are spontaneous – like a visit to the park, or the dollar store, or an upscale shopping mall.

    As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you also.

    Wow I hear you on the over thinking thing, looks like a lot of us have a hard time relaxing completely!
    As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you also 🙂

    Such wonderful wishes! Time well spent.
    I would have to say, I also… have a “really” hard time relaxing. (must work on that too)
    As you wish for yourself, I wish for you as well. :]
