Farewell & Hello

Here comes the new year...

There's always such an exhilarating feeling in the air as the new year approaches. It's so promising and full of hope. Almost as if we all get an extra boost of confidence in believing we can accomplish things we set out to. As if we have a blank canvas to start a new masterpiece on. As if it were not just a regular day or continuation of our mundane normalcy & routine.

It's an amazing feeling & I'm a believer of it. Not everyone gets this feeling constantly, so why take that away from them at this very moment.

Farewell to the old, Hello to the new...

I'm grateful for 2015. While it had its own mix of adventures and lessons learned (refer to my previous post).

It was very....normal...

Normal in the sense that it didn't tear me down, it didn't build me it, but it did something for me that the previous years haven't offered. It offered stability. It offered a feeling of normal, it offered a center I so yearned for in the last few years.

While I'm appreciative of it, I am ready for changes. I am ready to take some risk again, to take steps towards the things I wish to accomplish. But, I needed "normal" for a bit, and I got exactly that. I needed to firmly place my feet on solid grounds, right after I dug myself out the dirt. It's a good feeling. A good feeling to be here...

Here, with this blank canvas... with the ability to start a new masterpiece...

Me.

xoxo
