Mondo Beyondo 2008

It is always interesting to cruise the blog circuit this time of the year and see all the new creative challenges people start up. What gets me is how many people are charging for you to participate. What the hell is up with that? I have been reluctant to start anything else up because I did not want to get lost in the shuffle of challenge blogs. That is just not where my focus is right now.

Moving on and sticking with my theme of Returning to Center, I am participating once again in Andrea’s Mondo Beyondo. I did this a couple of years ago and it was pretty cool. This time, she has broken it up into parts and the first thing you have to do is settle up with 2007 so you can move forward. I already declared my intention for 2008, and I already closed up the books for 2007 personally. Even still, it is nice to reflect and have a moment with your accomplishments and your trials.

I am not settling for crap this year. I have grown increasingly tired of it. Waiting around for things and people to change. Hating the players and the games. Wondering why good crap happens to bad people. All of that is a diversion from what I should be focusing on. So, from now on, if something or someone is not in line with my intention, it and they will need to step. Not a day in our lives is guaranteed and I intend to not waste anymore time on mindless bullcrap. I have a choice how I react. I have plans. I have things I want to do. I see my future as bright and full of adventure. I have not done much talking this year; I have been acting. That feels good.
