Vision Board

Well, I did it.  I actually collaged my way to a Vision Board.  The process started with the task of eliminating the stacks of magazines (one of the many PoS in my life).  As I flipped through a few, certain images and phrases caught my attention. And then I heard my friend's voice urging me to create a Vision Board with the dream house in mind.  (Why do I keep capitalizing the "V" and the "B?")

As I gathered images and phrases I had flashbacks to the few other times I've done this in the past--all during high school.  I covered a clip board, I created a locker display, I covered a Ziggy corkboard that hung in my room.  I know I didn't do these projects thinking Vision Board, and I honestly can't say whether or not the Universe listened.  I assume it did, though, and some of the things that found their way to those projects manifested in my life in one way or another. 

I assume this because I believe in the power of connection~ the connection between people as well as the connection of our past self to our present and then future selves.  And by "past self" I mean both who we were as children as well as possible past lives.  Why else would some images and phrases feel right while others didn't even catch my attention?  Each one somehow connects to who I am or who I want to be, and those selves were/are built on my past self/selves (there I go, again sounding like I suffer from multiple personality disorder).

I selected items for my board without strict rules~ my right brain enjoyed it and my left constantly worried whether or not I had the right items, too many or too few, and how they were all going to fit.  And my left brain remembered that my friend who urged me to do this mentioned she had a book on creating Vision Boards.  Since I have no book, Left Brain is worried I did it wrong and will somehow cause the Universe it's very first nervous breakdown.  Or that I placed the future goals in the wrong spot (Feng Shui of Vision Board?) and the Universe will think they are past goals I'm trying to release.  Right Brain tells Left Brain there couldn't possibly be one right way to do a Vision Board, and, in fact, there's no such thing as a wrong way because it is what I need and want it to be.  I really hope Right Brain is correct on this one.

My categories are the house, my physical health, my educational/professional goals, and a future goal that relates to my education and profession but is big enough to need its own section.

Oh, and it's double sided because I had a few images that Right Brain wanted but Left Brain couldn't make them fit on the first side. 

It's crowded and wordy, but I trust the Universe can sort it out.
