#2. I Want To Create a Family that Is...
...fearless in love and life. FULL, no...overflowing with joy and laughter, hope and peace, love and communication.
A family outside of the box.
A home with doors flung WIDE OPEN like a big warm hug on a chilly day.
Hearts grounded in gratefulness and sharp with awareness.
Eyes that see the others around us- unafraid of eye contact and BOLD smiles between strangers.
A family without rugs. No rugs to sweep things under. (Completely RUG-LESS! ...RUG-FREE! ...DOWN WITH RUGS! ... Etc.)
A family that navigates without a detailed map and a well-thought-out plan.
Messy, but ALIVE.
Uncharted, but always GUIDED.
For better or worse.
lather. rinse. repeat.
...you?

Not to my surprise, we have a lot of similiar top 10s. I have some ideas for childrens book that I think you'd love...I just need an illustrator (or co-writer, or both!). Wink, wink.
whats awsome about that list is that you can do all of them!!
I can relate to a lot of your top ten. My father was a playwrite so I have seen many a Broadway show, otherwise it too would be the first on my list! And a coffee shop, now that is just heaven in my opinion!
Great list for the family you want to create. I love it. Just wanted to say Thanks for posting it, as it is inspiring to me.
hope you don't mind that I followed your link from blogher.
Well, hello, fellow Okie! Thanks for stopping by! :)
A list is always good...Just do it (them...)
Totally agree! FEARLESSNESS is the most important lesson, I feel. And NO RUGS HERE EITHER!
You rock.
