Setting intentions

I enjoyed a lovely week off work last week with my partner, Lawrence. We didn’t go away on holiday, but instead spent time doing our favourite things and discovering places in our own city. We did fun things, like seeing the new Spider-Man movie (it’s amazing!) and adult things, like organising our finances. It was a good week.

One of the best days was spent exploring a whole new part of Bristol that we haven’t ventured to before. We wandered around, checked out the local shops, had lunch and weighed up all our options. We’d like to buy a flat at some point, which is not easy in the current climate. But this new area is more affordable than where we currently live and would be close enough to work. It also had all the necessities I need to function nearby – organic store, grass-fed butcher and an abundance of coffee shops. 

Amazing street art we found on our walk

As we walked, I really evaluated what I want my life to be. I want to have access to organic supplies because the organic movement is important to me. I want to make choices that benefit others, not just myself. I want to make a difference with my writing. It’s amazing how much a walk can make your mind fly. 

I want to start making my own organic beauty products

These are things I can make happen for myself and that’s incredibly exciting. My New Years’ resolution was to move towards an organic lifestyle and I haven’t been proactive with that recently. But there’s always time to make changes and set new goals and make things happen. I’m looking forward to supporting organic businesses more where we live now, and to continue this trend when we move.
