Beginning from the Ending

I have a New Year's Resolution to be more of my Whole Self this year.  I plan to Shine my Light out into the world.  I'll share it by Posting here every day.  (Apparently, this will involve certain levels of Non-Traditional Capitalization.)    

It's a 9 year for me.  For those unfamiliar with numerology, that means I'll be doing a lot of letting go.  9 is completion, the end of the cycle, the preparations for new life and energies.  Old habits, old property, old ways of seeing, are all getting sorted through for the long term.  Do I need this (idea, limit, item, behavior)?  Does it delight me?  If no, do I recycle it?  Toss it?  Thank it for teaching me before I burn it?     

In the last five years I've sorted through my reality several times.  Things get simpler every time.  I've learned a lot about what I really need.  What I really don't need.  In keeping with the theme of completion, here are nine insights I've gleaned, in no particular order.

1)  Dessert is often a Necessity.
2)  What I think I want is subject to change without notice.
3)  I feel happier and more healthy if I keep plants in my living space.
4)  If I am charmed by a thing, 95% of the time, I'll be over it in a week or less.
5)  The Universe is generous and has a Great Sense of Humor.
6)  The movies I watch more than once are either funny or inspiring or both.
7)  The one thing that nourishes me most (Aside from Spirit) is community.
8)  I know I'm on the right track when things are easy and fun.
9)  Beauty, Truth, and Love are my reasons for being on Earth.

What would you put on the list of Useful Insights?
