Serendipity Experience - 31 Make a resolution!
4:07 AM"Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans". John Lennon.
For many years now I have been an ardent goal setter, writing down tangible goals to achieve and marking them off one by one. This has certainly been a very effective means of having dreams realized and I highly recommend it! This year, however, as part of my "Serendipity Experience" I am not setting out with a list of pre planned goals to acheive, but rather am allowing these experiences to develop and unfold each day. Having only just entered the blogging community I am amazed at how many "fortunate discoveries" have resulted in responding to someone's word prompt or engaging in a challenge put forward by another. ( And after viewing all your wonderful photographs, have even taken up photography, something that had never been on my agenda a few months ago!) Whilst these incidental experiences may happen by chance, the challenge I have set myself is to engage with them and allow them to take me on a journey, offering only an open mind and heart!
