2015 was not the best year for me. Major life changes disrupted the norms of daily connectivity. Relationships changed. Life Changed. I am beginning to truly understanding, deep within my bones, that my life is not turning out like I expected it to. Maybe I’m not in control like I thought I could be?
So, now that life is not turning out like I thought, what do I do now? My first goal of the new year is to try and be present to God, myself. and my children. Not necessarily in the particular order. I’m going to work on mindfulness. So, how does that work? I’ll let you know at the end of the year. But the first is trying not to plan too much or to worry about the future.
I’m starting to have some more time on my hands only having my children half-time, so I thought that I might pick up blogging again. We’ll see if this lasts.
I do like to take something on for the New Year. Something fun. This year I have decided that I want to take on making a few cocktails. The first will be an Old Fashioned. I think I’ll also make a Martini, Gin & Tonic, and a Manhattan. We’ll see how it goes.
All of that to say, I still have hope, faith, and believe in love. I am hope full about the future. I have great expectations about what life will bring.
Cheers,
Gotta say, I understand, as you say, that life doesn’t always turn out as we have planned. I have come to accept and love that life is truly a day by day journey.
But no matter how you look at it; the true beauty is, that life goes on.
As time passes, if we continue the journey, we find a renewed self.
