5 Fabulous posts among the millions this week :-)

  • What if you were a grass seed? Would you go with the flow and allow yourself to naturally become a blade of grass? Or would you rail against the flow and force your way into becoming what you were going to be anyway? In the Opposite of Effortlessness, Christine uses an analogy that drives home the point that we need to relax and go with the flow.
  • Just sitting and writing is a great start to getting your feelings and life events on paper, but sometimes you need to dig a bit deeper to get the real benefits of journalling. Isabella provides some guidelines for effective journalling.
  • Have you been sleeping under an environmental rug? I have. Seth Godin introduced me to these alternative flourescent light bulbs. Who knew? (Oh, I’m not really asking) I’ve seen these funky bulbs at Target, but I had no idea what they were. Since they don’t match the shape of any of the bulbs at my house, I turned a blind eye. Thanks for the heads up.
  • Amidst the avalanche of resolution posts (guilty as charged), cooler heads prevailed. Pam puts a twist on the resolution in 12 Ways to Feel More Free in 2007. Very Zen, I love it!
  • I wish I had written this myself. In Ringing in the New Year with Forgiveness, Pete explores the connection between residual anger and resentment, and financial success or lack thereof.

What were your Fab 5 this week? Tell us all about them in the comments or highlight them on your blog. Oh, and don’t be modest if you think one of your posts were fabulous ;-)
