| Gratitude and Celebration Journal - Amanda Trought |
Thank you for joining me for another Gratitude's and Celebration Journal, where I have been making my weekly journey within my journal to create, but to also look at those things that I am grateful for and also take time to celebrate the life that I have been given. This week is about growing, there are many things that we learn through our growth...
Having spent my time in the journal each week has been a great way for me to discipline myself. I can often be impatient at my progress and want to 'do it all now'! The years and experience has taught me that patience and making sure that you do a good job (the best of your ability) are things that you cannot rush.

How many times have you tried to rush something only to end up having to do it over? My journal is a way for me to learn patience, there is no time frame where all the images have to be painted and each day I have to spend some time developing the image that you then see at the end of the week. Some weeks other things have got in the way and so you don't see a post. But I am extremely proud of myself for taking it this far......86 weeks worth of insights, celebrations and paintings.

I was reminded these past few weeks about connections and friendships that we can make, and how some people just go above and beyond what they have to do in order to be a blessing. We have found our new neighbors Sarah and Haddy to be such people, not forgetting Jacob - who gives out such a delightful giggle when I threaten to tickle his belly!

Our lives have a purpose and meaning and we are all interconnected. What I do today will have an affect on someone else around the world, and therefore we have to treat each other with a bit more kindness (you will reap what you sew) so why not start today.

I celebrate and I am grateful for growth, lovely neighbours and the new lessons that life will show me as time goes on.
I am on a creative journey in my journal and hope you come along and join me. Why not start your own journal, keep it as simple or complex as you wish, but do something!
