Mind-Body Community Challenge

Today was a "Sanctuary" day, dbf cam back from office for lunch and my sweetie even went an extra mile to find Cosmopolitan for me, the Indian eddition of the magazine celebrate it's anniversary in October and this year it's the 9th anniversary, and like every October the edition is late.
I was really happy...400+ pages to go through, so I retreated in the bedroom (sancturay), and went through the glossy pages.

Since childhood I have this "game" called "In my dream I have..." and I like doing this with magazines even now, picking stuff out of the glossy pages, way too costly or totally unwearable and imagine me in them or owning them. Now contray to what certain person would think it does not depress me at all, it's just pure fun, I can love the idea of dreaming having a heavilly loaded diamond neck piece but seriously in reality I would hate it, I do see a couple of item I like and they end up on a "induldge list" for the future so far only one made it into a real thing LOL

But I came out of the bedroom with a big smile on my face and inside me, and totally serene from my imaginary retail therapy :-)

That's cool Cyinthya,

There is nothing wrong with dreaming! I am constantly daydreaming and imagining different "life senarios". It's one thing that I know I've done since childhood and don't want to loose it, ever! I believe I'll be sad the day I stop dreaming and imagining like a child!
I spent a long time in my sanctuary paiting and listening to music, it's been inspiring to me, and it's really making me grow and learn how to be alone. I am finding happiness within myself... It's just hard because there are times I miss my ex and lately I have been thinking about him a lot, but I know it will pass and I'll be better. It's only been 3 weeks since I left him.
For now I have my sanctuary and my new friends here who have been of great support!

Keep on dreaming!

Be well,

Rafaella

Hey I've been day dreaming since childhood too, I must say it's a powerful motivation tool as well. The thing is to stay grounded :-)

As much as I love imagining myself being a heiress of somekind with lots of material goodie, I would not like to trade my present life for an empire :-)

You are already starting to get over your ex, I'm sure you'll do great, friends are very precious and it's great to have support from them in hard time, it's what makes you go on.
