National Floral Design Day

Besides flowers being considered a gesture of love and care, they represent beauty and remind us of hope. Think of all the occasions that flowers are a part of - weddings, funerals, births, dinner parties, birthdays, Valentine’s Day, Spring, tea parties, Thanksgiving etc. Not to mention the scents of flowers are so naturally intoxicating. As obvious as it may seem that flowers can set the tone for any event, to me, the mystery about flowers has always been in floral designs. I know nothing about which flowers go well together and which certain positions of the flowers look pleasing to the eye. People, professional or layman, who know how to arrange flowers in a way that can make us feel certain emotions should be celebrated.

Oprah's Pinch

By the time I went to Oprah’s 2020 Vision event in St. Paul, I had been meditating for at least 5 minutes a day for 10 days in row because that is my 365 (366 for Leap Year) for 2020.  I often heard that the benefits of mediation were immediate but I wasn’t expecting it to be truly… immediate.  The Oprah event exceeded all of my expectations because: 1. I didn’t have any expectations except to see her live on stage and 2. meditating cleared up some junk just in time to see this show.  My mind was so open that it soaked up every morsel of wisdom that Oprah had to offer.

Vision Board Day

In 2019, when all of the New Year parties were over, I remember the buzz words were VISION BOARD. Everyone decided that they needed their vision to be in print and 2019 was the year to do it. It was vision board parties and workshops galore! Even though I wasn’t invited to any vision board events and I have FOMO, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have gone to an event anyway. I was too busy working on my goals.
