Last weekend was the first time since Sinful Sunday started in 2011 that I didn’t join in. On Friday I kept trying to motivate myself to put a post together but as the weekend ticked by that slowly changed from this sense that I must do to, why must I do it? So why? Because it is what I do, but that is not good enough any more.
When Monday came round I found myself smiling. I missed a Sinful Sunday post and rather than feeling sad or like I had let myself down I felt happy. Maybe even liberated. What does this mean? I am not 100% sure of that but I am 90% sure…. give me a couple more weeks and let me see if I can find that missing 10% and I will come back to you.
For now…. I am smiling, where I am at feels good. Doing this needs to be more than just habit. Knowing that for sure feels like a weight has been lifted. What next?
Who knows, maybe more, maybe less, maybe something completely different…

Oh, I do like this one! Your face and particularly your eye looks happy.
And you are following your intuition. Excellent.
You do know that life without you looses a lot of flavor. Right?
I’m trying to be good and keep you out of trouble. Not easy for me 🙂
Doing something because you want to, rather than doing it because you feel obliged to can be surprisingly freeing.
I hope I’m looking forward to the 10%.
It is strange how we keep doing things out of habit or because we feel obliged. Life is too short to not enjoy it.
I am glad to see you here though.
Yes, this! I totally know that feeling of lightness and the feeling of obligation. (It’s what has me awake an hour before work to do things.) But I’m glad to see you here and sharing with us. 🙂
Sometimes we need to make a change to reignite that passion for a something in our lives. Whether it’s a renewed something or a new something, it’s always good to step back sometimes.
Love you Molls xx Vee xx
