Another way to focus on the new year ahead is to create a collage. The collage can be made alone or with a group of friends. This year I spent an afternoon by myself contemplating the new year.
I have learned that sometimes images in these collages come to fruition or symbolize a life experience or insight. One time I made a dream collage with images of the Alps in Switzerland. After finally traveling to Switzerland, I skied the Klein Matterhorn in Zermatt, the Kleine Schcidegg Mannlichca, and the Schilthorn in the area of Interlaken. Upon return, I gazed at my collage to find that all the images were of the ski area around the Matterhorn in Zermatt where I went on the spur of the moment - I KNEW ALL THE IMAGES FIRST HAND FROM MY BEING THERE!
How to create a collage:
FIRST, find a bunch of magazines.
SECOND, cut out images and/or words.
THIRD, use a glue stick to paste images anyway you want to a large piece of paper.
TA DA!
Who knows what meaning this collage has for me in this new year?
That is so cool, Joanne. Wow! :) I should make one. I too have been contemplating alot about this year and wanting to make some very significant changes to my life. (crosses her fingers) :)
