Birthday Manifesting...

Saturday brings about my 23rd birthday. I'm stupendously stoked to celebrate my birthday this year. I feel as if with each year that passes I'm unashamedly falling more in love with myself. I'm comfortable in my on skin, self assured. These days I'm brimming with a secret confidence I never knew existed. This confidence serves me well, I now know what I want from life and I'm no longer afraid to make it happen.

Last birthday receiving gifts made me uneasy. My thought process went like this "why do I deserve gifts when people worldwide are far more needing than I?" I wanted to help change our world, I still do but thinking that way got/gets me nowhere. This year I'm trying on a new approach for size. I'm tossing my birthday wishlist out into the world, manifesting my desires. Saying "hey universe please work your magic". My theory is if I open  myself up to gifts that nourish my soul and enrich me deeply all the more finer I will be at nourishing and enriching the lives of others.

Hair

There's an influx of newness driving into my life at full speed right now. New home, new outlook, new suburb, new career. Unfortunately my current hair style is failing to stay afloat in this big bright sea of new. My hair is looking old & tired. We need a do over.

Desk

Now that I'm finished with all the unpacking and settling in I've got a huge chunk of time to do whatever I please. And guess what? Blogging pleases me greatly. I'm so ready to pour my heart into this space but as it turns out I'm Tink Simplicity  sans workspace. I want a desk. Stepping away from the Internet & into real life is a non negotiable must for me. A desk clearly defines the boundaries.

Books

Amidst my list of favourite things to do. Reading wars against eating for the top spot. I can spend hours, make that days losing myself amongst the pages of an all entrancing book. Books are to be credited for the knowledge I behold, I'm an avid self studier. There's always room for more knowing, self loving and wisdom in this brain of mine. I can't wait to feast my eyes on This I Know, Notes on Unravelling the Heart by Susannah Conway & Find Your Strongest Life: What the Happiest and Most Successful Women Do Differently by Marcus Buckingham. 

Soy candles

My bestfriend is one of those women with an impeccably clean, shiny, gorgeously manicured home. Stepping into her pad is like stepping into the pages of a glossy home decor magazine. Yet that's not the best part. She's also obsessed with soy candles. As soon as you open the front door a delicious scent finds it's way up your nose. The smell of her place is comforting, relaxing or invigorating depending on what candle she's burning. I too wish to be an aromatic goddess.

Spectacles

My poor eyes have sadly been neglected over the past two years. I'm wary of the lecture my Optometrist would dish on me. Thankfully I'm going to need to locate a new one. It's become apparent to me over recent months of my urgent need for stronger spectacles (yes I'm talking to you eyegrain)! I know it's totally in my head but wearing glasses totally boost my concentration levels too. I love Tara's take on wearing glasses to enhance better writing.

Music

Put simply music makes me happy. I'm quite prone to singing myself out of frump and/or to reconnect with myself. I listen to music when: 1.I feel like getting my dance on. 2.I'm cooking a meal for the people I love. 3.When I meditate. 4.Going to sleep. 5.Relaxing in the bathtub. 6.Driving from A-Z. Music cuddles my heart like your first love, it's true... I'm actually smiling and holding my heart as I type this. My ears are craving the blissful sound of So Frenchy, So Chic, Julia Stone, Xavier Rudd, Angus Stone & Gypsy and the cat.

Bicycle

Strolling the streets of my new neighbourhood one morning last week it dawned on me that I've managed to simplify my life without even noticing. I streamlined my wardrobe, de-cluttered the kitchen, sent a binful of bags to vinnies and we sold one of our cars. So now I'm car-less in the city which is just fine but, how awesome would it be to whiz around town on my single speed bike?

I'm popping this wishlist straight into my dream diary in explicit details, pictures & colour. I can't wait to watch the power unfold. I've taken the first step that is putting my list out there into the world.

Now it's your turn. Is there space for extra delight in your life? Do you treasure your dreams, desires & wishes?

Sunshine & Sweetness
