a couple a'days of full-ness

when i hear people say "oh, didn't the year just fly by" or "where did the time go?", i usually differ in opinion.  time isn't flying.  i think we might be flying, blurring ourselves and our liVes, and not fully participating in the "moment" with presence.
i'ma be on a 12-day expansion of consciousness journey.  i do these things [journeys] to slow down time, to be present, to notice and experience liVing in a way that is both personal and inter-connected.

here is my layout for the 12-day journey in expansion ::
{i start tomorrow--join me!}
**on christmas day, dec 25th, i added some of the pictures of my 12 days of fullness 

day 1} tuesday dec/14th :: LOve NOW day--start a scrapbook :: ALL i've LOved in 2010 [add to it daily]

day 2} wed dec/15 :: vision day--pray for economic abundance {for those in need! including me! [need is relative]} and enlightened social relations in this country AND the world.  my prayer is for happiness:: that we learn to desire less/notice the treasures we have.

day 3} thurs dec/16 :: de-clutter day--i'm getting rid of 5 things in my house!

day 4} fri dec/17 :: give a compliment day, no computer day [only texting.  i have an antiquated phone, so it still qualifies as a "no computer day"]

day 5} sat dec/18 :: quiet day--one hour of silence

day 6} sun dec/19 :: "getdown" day---get grounded day-i'm gonna hug a tree/ sit on the grass

day 7} mon dec 20 :: enough already day--i plan to address an area of procrastination.  i will do something i've put off.

day 8} tuesday 21 :: conscious creation day--experience a full day of art

day 9} wed dec 22 :: expand my vision day--add to my scrapbook a section for my visions of expansion in 2011!

day 10} thurs dec 23 :: listen within day--walking meditation and prayer!! 

day 11} fri dec 24 :: be a photographer day--carry my camera and photograph every thing i see that moves me {i saw the city a whole new way with mother bear in town.  i never hang at bryant park or times square, but here we are!  loved it.}

day 12} sat dec 25 :: be a creative cook day [this is really terrifying, because i'm not a confident chef-person.  it's not my thing.  but it will be on this day.]

i will post every few days to share my 12 days of expansion with you.  join me on the journey, my peeps.  post your experiences in the comments.  i'd LOve to hear from you.
enjoy these weeks of fullness.

my treasure chest

can i share a few new-found treasures with you?
i found a movie ::
For Colored Girls...
full title of the original stage play or, as it was called, "choreopoem" {it's an abstract play/dance/poem}

:: for colored girls who considered suicide/when the rainbow is enuf
playwright, ntozake shange {pronounced N-toe-zake like sake, the rice wine}
such de'light to see a film adapted from a written work
done with integrity and ingenuity
female performances
superb {heavy use of expression} but i mean it
absolutely superb
script is rich, revealing the honesty of the human condition/
one can identify with aspects of each woman in the rainbow.
should you read the play before you see the film?
you'll be de'lighted by this artistic experience in either order

i found a website ::
treekaya {click on the daily opportunity
http://treekaya.wordpress.com/daily-challenge/monday/
monday is no waste day
this organization, out of california, offers insight into
conscious living, health, and culture

i found a book ::
the moses code
by james f. twyman
this little easy-read book serves a POWerful
injection of faith serum.
books like this {small/BIG} need to be read in doses
giving time for meditation and contemplation
i was at first turned off by the title, which i didn't fully state above
{the moses code, the most powerful manifestation tool in the history of the world}
whenever i see something boasting like that, i roll my eyes.
another gimmick for getting stuff.
i only read this book because dr. wayne dyer recommended it last week.
no gimmick here.
faith in possibility 
clarity of vision
awareness of your connection to others
SOUL awareness
are a few of the de'lightful treasures you will find in this reading experience.

what's in your treasure chest these days?  have you found a film,
website, and/or book you can recommend?  please share.  gracias.
