Happy New Year!!!
As 2018 winds down, may you take time to reflect on all the goodness, twists and turns of the past year. The good memories will reside in your heart because you'll remember how you felt in those moments. All the twists and turns, and even the complete down times are all lessons to be learned from...for continual growth and insight into our frail and complicated lives. The twists and turns keep us on our toes and shed insight into how prepared we are, how good/bad we react to situations, and how much we still need to learn. Reaching rock bottom of a situation or in our lives helps us shed away what we absolutely don't need in our lives. It rids us of the toxicity that has enveloped our lives. And, hopefully it sheds a light on better days.
Hope! We all need hope in our lives...in good times and bad times. Don't ever lose hope!
It's a cold dreary day here which is perfect for hunkering down and reflecting on the past year...and seeking hope for a brand new year. Reflection is a good growth tool to use to help propel you to a better you. It helps you to truthfully and sometimes painfully see why you made some of the decisions you made in the past and look at the results of those decisions with crystal-clear colored glasses. It shows us where we need to improve areas of our lives and what we've accomplished, too. It shows us how strong we are or not, how vulnerable we are or not, and how compassionate we are or not. Seeing who we truly are when seeing our reflection "in the mirror" is an important part of our life journeys.
Each new year is another year to start over...to start anew, to begin again. It's a time to hope for our futures with excitement and anticipation. A new year is a clean slate. It's an opportunity to make your life what you wish and hope it to be! So, take time to reflect today and tomorrow...and then, begin anew!
Cheers to 2018 and blessings for a new year full of love, laughter, good health and more compassion for one another around the world!!!
