This year
I will seek joy.
I’ll accentuate the positive, in all things.
I won’t cling too tightly to the good or the bad.
I will deflect negative energy.
I’ll run after my dreams, remembering that it’s okay to walk sometimes, too.
I will take time every day to be still and quiet.
I won’t take anything, or anyone, for granted.
I’ll work hard, play fair and celebrate accomplishments.
I won’t be discouraged when things don’t go as I’d hoped, knowing there’s often a good reason — or a lesson.
I’ll never stop hoping for the best.
I will explore the new and savor the old.
I’ll be in the moment every day. Every moment.
My birthday always feels like the start of a new year more than any other day. This list will surely evolve in the next 12 months, but it’s an excellent place to start.
Amy,
Such lovely thoughts. And good advice for all of us to follow! Have a great birthday and a great coming year!
Ron
