Agreements

Agreements.  This is a word that gets a lot of use in my spiritual community.  We talk openly about the agreements we have in our romantic relationships.  We share agreements with our magickal circles.  We explore and discuss the agreements that we make with Deity.  All of these things are freely talked about and shared with others..."what are your agreements?"

I might be missing this, but I don't think I've ever heard someone talk about their personal agreements. 

What agreements do you make to yourself?  How do you hold yourself accountable to keeping those agreements?  How do you honor your need, wants, desires, and still push your edges and grow?

This blog is one way that I am answering that question for myself.  This is the first in a weekly, year-long, agreement that I have made.  A series of synchronicities led me to taking on this challenge; which is why I know it's right.  I know that it is going to be hard.  I know that it is going to challenge me and probably annoy and frustrate me at times, but I made the agreement. 

I made the agreement with myself and I intend to keep it.

  2. I would like agreements with yourself could be like personal resolutions. Just like my agreement with myself and the blogisphere to keep up with the Pagan Blog Project.

    It's a good point though that few of us pay attention to ourselves in that regard. We're so busy paying attention to our interactions with others.

  3. I made an agreement with myself a very long time ago that I would try to see the silver lining no matter ho dark the storm clouds. I think it's safe to say that this agreement has made me the person I am today.
