“New Year’s Day. A fresh start. A new chapter in life waiting to be written. New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved. Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative year of delight and self-discovery. Today carve out a quiet interlude for yourself in which to dream, pen in hand. Only dreams give birth to change.” – Sarah Ban Breathnach
Thanks Spidey for that inspirational quote for the New Year.
I just love the idea of ‘carving out’ some moments to sit ‘pen in hand’ to dream!
As a writer, this speaks volumes.
But for all of us, it should be a part of the day.
Tomorrow we will start our new year, and there will be resolutions abounding.
From the health-based ones to the weight loss ones, the self-improvement promises to the bucket list items you want to tick off, the things you are going to stop and those you plan to take up.
We all have dreams and wishes.
And to be honest, only we can make these resolutions, dreams and wishes come true.
If you hope and dream, then take the initiative to actually start your journey to reaching your goal.
Reflect upon what you have achieved so far, and plan where you want to be this time next year.
Along the way, others will support you, but no one else can actually write that book/lose that weight/complete that course/stop that drink from being drunk/(insert any of the things you wish to accomplish).
Only you.
So go on, and really focus on what you want – and GO GET EM!
Enjoy your New Year’s Eve Sunday Peeps!!!!!
What are you hoping the New Year will help you to achieve?
But I Smile Anyway...

Peace in the midst of chaos with co-parenting. Other than that, I’m pretty happy with everything.

I want nothing else than being in balance with myself and simply taking the steps I feel that have to be taken in faith and feeling the joy for what is coming from that instead of the doubt of what could be.
Lots of love and a happy 2018 for you, sis!
