Day 1. Introducing Captured Bliss
Bliss can be difficult to identify, it has contrasts, it is unique to each and every one of us. Bliss can be active and bliss can be peaceful. Bliss can be go get it and bliss can be relaxed. Bliss may be in a cup of tea today and a bath tomorrow. Bliss may be in a challenge and bliss may be in a nap.
Bliss is like your very own personalised tour guide, leading you to the most exquisite destinations.
Recently I stumbled upon this 31 day writing challenge, a big challenge. To write and publish everyday around a central theme. I planned to watch and see and maybe join in next year, when I am a better writer. Then the little voice kicked in and nagged at me for a week. “How are you going to improve without practice? This is perfect, challenge yourself , you will love it, come on you know you will.”
Okay, okay I am following my own advice, I am stepping up to the plate, bat in hand, (well keyboard and camera really), and I am following my blissful urge to get involved. There may be tears and tantrums, followed by home runs and triumphs. The fairy wings may come out for added sparkle on difficult days. One thing I know for sure, there is decadent bliss waiting outside my comfort zone.
What is going to happen?
Everyday in October I will be writing a post relating to my theme – Captured Bliss. I will link to all 31 posts here on this master page and you can visit at anytime.
I love sharing my discoveries. I want everyone to dance in the joy, happiness and delight quietly hanging around in the wings of their own life.
As you follow my journey I challenge you to dive in and capture your own delicious bliss.
Speak soon. xx
Fantastic! Good for you Karen. I’ll check in regularily.
Thanks Kelly look forward to hearing form you
You go girl! I’m so impressed that you are doing this! I thought about it for a second and a half then said, “maybe next year.” I’m so proud of you for heeding the little voice inside your head. I’s anxious to see your journey!
Mo having you all cheering me on got me over the line. Stay tuned.
I can not wait to see what is to come from you! You make my *heart flutter* from here to the moon and back!
Good for you!
Sarah what an incredible compliment. Thank you
What a great series! Visiting from sharefest and I’m so glad I did!
Thanks Susan, I am glad you visited too.
I think it’s so important to pay attention to and remember those little moments of bliss that we might otherwise forget, or that might even pass by unnoticed!
Hi Karen,
Your topic is wonderful, and I do like the challenge of posting each day in October! I’ll be popping here to follow and to be inspired!
Happy Saturday Sharefest to you,
Nina
It’s sometimes difficult for me to carve one on one time with each of my four kids, but ALWAYS well worth it. Alone is the only way to see them purely as they are. Your post warmed my heart, and made me think of my own little 6 year old treasure <3
