I don’t know what this New Year will bring. . . But, I’m hoping for more beach trips, more books, more time with family and friends, and lots of good memories!
These last couple of years, I let go of “Words for the Year”. Those statements and values to help you decide what kind of life you’re going to live that year. . . Typically, at the beginning of a New Year.
I felt like something different was needed. Looking back, maybe there was a word/phrase that I lived by. But, I definitely didn’t give it a “stamp of approval”. I kind of, just did it.
Looking back, I’d say my phrase for the last two years has been: “Just Be”. That looked like loving myself and loving the moment I’m at, finding a space to accept ‘what is’, and just living in the moment. Not forcing anything, and letting life just happen.
As we have been inching closer to the end of the year, I have felt like I wanted words to live by this year. But, I didn’t want to force it. So, I waited on God.
And today, it hit me. I felt a small whisper.
Begin, again. Outdoors More. Intentional.
And while, I have a feeling that I know what that means. . . I’m going to incorporate these words to live by, with what I have learned over the past few years.
Begin, again. Outdoors more. Intentional.
While I’m living life this way- I’ll also “Just Be” and allow life to happen in the moment.
How did that happen, again?
2019- early 2020, I was excited to start writing, again.
Then, the pandemic.
Then, we started traveling, full-time, and homeschooling.
And writing. . . well, that went on the back burner.
And, these past 3 years. . . They’ve been hard, but they have given me SO much!
I’ m excited to start unpacking all of that. To share our journey. To help others.
Resolutions. New Year, New Me. All of that seems heavy to me, this year. I want nothing to do with it.
What are you
But, I do know what I’m looking forward to: continuing our homeschool journey, more trips, enjoying life, sunsets, warm weather, being outdoors, spending time with family and friends, and so much more!
What are you looking forward to?
