Listen with Intent – Week 49

Part of going deeper is seeking things. Listening deeply to the universe, seeking its lessons and signs. Seeking the real meaning behind the words of others. Looking for my desires and listening for the good. What I like about seek is that it’s very active. It implies involvement, actively trying to go deeper. Here’s to a week of seeking!

Here’s the pin where I got the lettering..

Listen with Intent is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.

December Daily 2014 – Day Seven

Day seven is all about chocolate. I brought a large collection from Zurich and we had to have a tasting, of course.

December Daily 2014 – Day Six

Day six was my first day back and it was a full one. It started with Breakfast with Santa so I knew that was going to be my first story from the day.

December Daily 2014 – Day Four

Day four is dedicated to the boys. While I was in Zurich, Jake was here being a single parent. To add more fun, it poured all week, making it extra unpleasant. But the boys did wonderfully and I wanted to make sure to document all their adventures.

December Daily 2014 – Day One

So I am finally back from Zurich and one of the first things on my mind (after kissing and hugging my husband and my boys) was to get going on the December Daily. I don’t like being behind since it becomes easy to just let the whole project drop on the floor if one feels behind. So I was determined not to have that happen.

I worked feverishly and I am finally all caught up and deep in the joy of this project. I will post each of the pages as separate posts but if you’re reading this on email, I don’t want to spam you with five emails so feel free to come to karenika.com and see them all there.

Ok here’s day one. Let me share the before photo first:
