Meanwhile, I Keep Dancing

Travel is something I want to do a great deal of, and for starters I really really want to go to Ghana, Africa. At this point it isn't so much that I need to go there, specifically, but as it is my intended trip this summer, I very much want to see it through, financially, physically, and emotionally. I need to complete this goal I have. Because I am not very good at completing things. I lose focus if I am working on something for an extended period. The "Ooo, shiny!" mentality. And also a fear of change, and an insecurity of my skills and talents. I want to back out now, even with the $200 already deposited, but I know I can't. I know I must move forward with this plan. I think I have the strength for this trip. This is my second to last day of this challenge, and that is fantastic. So, one step at a time I will get to you, Ghana. I will get there.

Boots! And not just any boots, but knee-high and piratey! My dad just got them for me today, and he is so happy to have found my Christmas present, and I'm rather happy to be wearing them. I don't know why, but clothing, and especially shoes, can change how you move, how you think about yourself. And how you feel about yourself. It's like you put on new skin, or a shiny cocoon (and I know we shouldn't covet material things...but...) and feeling new and reborn, an inner part of us comes out. So, with my new boots I will walk (stride) across continents, win hearts and walk away from heartbreakers, and boldly go where I have not gone before.

Such a hard prompt! Finally it is done! I don't have much to say, the picture, hopefully speaks for itself... I love both of these shows. The characters are inventors and explorers. I want to be that too. :-) Thats all. Enjoy!
