Re: I love to be satisfied. And I love to be eager for more!
It sounds like a warm and lovely family scene The stuffed duck sounds delicious! I love learning about Christmas traditions in other countries - here in the UK at Christmas, goose is quite popular, as is turkey or ham, but I've never seen duck at Christmas over here! It's so interesting how these different traditions happen!
I love your tree - it's so beautiful!
The gold colour scheme makes me tune into a feeling of beauty, luxury and abundance!
Wishing you a continuation of a wonderful day full of even more love, deliciousness and satisfaction!

Goose or turkey are common Christmas food here, too. But I feel, both are significantly less delicious than duck... It's so interesting how different countries are! In Germany, ham is never considered as festive meal, I don't think we could even buy it in normal stores! Strangely, most Germans eat hot sausages with potato-salad at Christmas, because that's fast and convenient. ...No really, of course, everyone should eat what they really love!!
Thank you so much again for your kind words!!! Wishing you SO much joy!!
How are YOU celebrating Christmas?
It is my first Christmas since 35 years without small children, and with a small tree (before, they have all been over 2 meters high). And first time in a blue room (I always had yellow living rooms) and so I needed to sort out all red ornaments for the tree because I thought it would clash and I am sooo satisfied with the completely relaxed path, this year.
So different, and a bit strange, and so nice!! We'r lazy and happy, and plan New Years Eve in Munich, where my son lives... SATISFIED as mice in the loaf, and eager for more!

sausages and potato salad! I wouldn't have guessed!
In my culture we don't celebrate Christmas, but I like the good-natured, uplifting, festive feel of it, and enjoy soaking it up by watching Christmas movies and exploring the city, seeing the world light up with colour and twinkling lights. Some years just for fun my family do a get-together and we have a Christmassy feast like the locals do - complete with Christmas crackers and funny crown-shaped paper hats! This year we did a simple Sunday roast and are having a very relaxed and easy family time at home together.
It is nice you get to experience a diversity and variety of celebrations.
Each kind has it's own sweetness

Oh indeed, that is nice! Thank you so much for sharing! And how open and joyful of you and your family, to be so loving and wise to get joy in many ways! I adore that! I am so sorry. How ignorant was it of me to expect you to celebrate Christmas, just because you wave a United Kingdom flag. This whole exchange with you is so inspiring! Thank you!!spiritualcookie wrote: ↑Sun Dec 24, 2023 6:55 pm sausages and potato salad! I wouldn't have guessed!

And thanks as well to remind me of funny crowns and Christmas-crackers. I heard of them, but never saw them! I just love to hold all the differences in my heart!
Much, much love! Good night!

Re: I love to be satisfied. And I love to be eager for more!
(testing my tolerance... )
Second day of Christmas in Germany!
I feel very, very satisfied! I cleaned up the kitchen, we loaded the woodburning stoves, I set the breakfast table, and Wolf and I had a wonderful drive through the early morning. It is sooo satisfying, to see order, again. It feels so satisfying to have set up the day nicely. It feels so satisfying, to be with my beloved! It feels so satisfying to have so many good things to eat, in my house! It feels so satisfying, to know that my family is resting well and still sleeping. It feels so good. So cozy. So sweet. So rich and abundant! I am deeply thankful! I feel satisfied, war, full, happy, filled up with joy.
I also am eager for more! Wolf and I had such a wonderful talk this morning. I felt seen and heard, and I am eager for new solutions, coming from this! I feel satisfied to not be "satisfied" in the wrong way, not be "tolerant" with what I don't want any longer. It came to a threshhold and I formed into words what I want to change, and it just flowed so smoothely. I love to look forwards to a further unfolding, and to beautiful solutions, in perfect time. I feel eager to see results, but also to be on a new path!
I am eager to see new behaviour. I am satisfied already, seeing it before my inner eyes. It feels so good! It feels SO good that I know, the solution is THERE! It is DONE. And all it needs is me, going out of the way and trusting the journey. I love that!! I am EAGER for more!!
I so love my life.

Christmas, day 3 in Germany!
I am sooo satisfied how F. and N. work on their arts- and crafts-projects, in the living room. It feels so busy and happy!
The Christmas tree is back at it's elegant place, but on the table, there is a carburetor, and oily rags. F. is carving on a piece of wood!
Wolf is hand-planing wooden boards in the corridor, and we see and hear him over the low wall. The planing sounds so soothing. A steady, calm hissing sound, wooden curls cover the floor, it smells so fresh and nice!
I feel such joy to be right here and now! I feel such love for my family. I feel so happy! I FEEL SO SATISFIED!
I am so thankful to be here, now. And I am so eager for more! I lay on the sofa and dream of future cruises under white sails. I dream of doing a road trip to southern France, along the Route de Mimosa, in February! I dream of staying in all the incredibly beautiful 5 star-Hotels of the Belle Epoque, and enjoy googling the delicious, awesome details.
I so look forwards to all that! It feels eager. It feels excited. It feels so happy, my heart is skipping! I enjoy it so much- even it is not yet there, that I grin from ear to ear. I WILL experience the fresh air on the mediterranean sea in winter! I will eat the awesome seafood in the bistros. I will smell the wonderful mimosas, and see the yellow landscape! I will bask in the beauty of the hotel-lounges. I will enjoy the slower pace of Côte d'Azur, when there is no season. I will drive my beloved convertible, again!
I SO look forwards to that. While I enjoy and love the jolly banter of my men, around me, NOW. I listen to the hissing of the plane and the scraping of the chisel and the smoothening of the metal. I FEEL THE LOVE. I FEEL THE JOY! I am sooo satisfied, and eager for more!!

Re: I love to be satisfied. And I love to be eager for more!
I am so very satisfied with the cars that I own, and have owned, and have driven. I drove and owned icons. I drove and owned fantastic sportscars. I feel myself as a being that is herself a "sportscar with 500hp"! -I always did ...and I was thrilled when I came across this quote below, yesterday. I am SO SATISFIED with my amazing energy level! I soooo love to be "an amazing machine", to be a Creator, and to work with specific details for enormous expansion! I LOVE to feel the power!! I LOVE to have "the energy that creates worlds" at my fingertips.
I AM SOOOO SATISFIED with speed! I so love my souvereignity, that I have, in regards to power, and speed and mightiness. I LOVE high energy. And I love mighty cars! And everything that is less, is "just painful". And so, my Vortex pulls me forwards powerfully, into huge visions and huge desires, powerfully and fast and intense, and very VERY specific! I am soooo eager for more! I so love all my desires.
I love the energy of "my" Lamborghini Aventador! I love this magic machine! I love to go fast. I love the potential of it. I love it's bold intensity. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this car!
I love the intensity with which I KNOW my dreams. I so love the unfolding from awareness over joy and love, and deep, unconditional trust.
I so love the intense, specific journey. I am very VERY satisfied with "paying the price" of detailed awareness- for the unmeasurable joy and delight of specific intense powerful unfolding. So satisfied where I am, so eager for more!

Re: I love to be satisfied. And I love to be eager for more!
I just now had this quote on my copy-key, and it is the perfect segway to appreciate what was on my mind.
Back-ground-story: I have some health issues and my beloved family wants to help, and they all have an opinion around what they think that I should, or should not, eat, or do, or certainly not do. And while I VERY much appreciate their care and their love, I feel deeply in alignment with my eating- and doing- and not-doing- behavior. I wouldn't want to change a thing!
I know what the root of my resistance is, and it has nothing to do with eating or doing. Not even with not-doing. THIS IS NO ACTION-JOURNEY!!!
In fact, and even more, my "issues" serve me really well, in the moment, while I desire to allow the answers. And I trust the unfolding. "All I need is even more time ITV" (Abe)! And, no thank you, I want to figure it out on MY terms.
This might sound weird, but really- I AM SO SATISFIED where I am! Warts, and all!
I LIKE the figuring it out, step by step. I AM SATISFIED with my contrast!!! I am SATISFIED with my "disabledness". I am SATISFIED with where I am! Really... it feels calm. It feels where I need to be, to get the next better step. It feels so peaceful. It feels... perfectly right.
And, I am eager for more! I am eager for what might come- while I have not the slightest clue of how to get there, yet. Please give the time to look into it more, and to have fun in that creative, specific process! Don't judge me because I am not "perfect or finished". I will never be! I will always continue to be a creator!! WHICH I LOVE SO MUCH! Satisfied with where I am, and eager for more: That is joy. That is adventure. That is delightful playing in the adventure-park of contrast. Let me at it! Wooooohooooo, I am "jodeling down the canyons" (Abe)!!!!
