This year, 2019 has brought loads of emotions and energies that need addressing. Each year for the past few years I’ve chosen a word that has been my focus for the year. Last year it was balance…and that didn’t work out so well. 🙂 This year the word is change.
There are many things that I need to work on in myself. Many things that need to change and I’m the only one that can change them. I need to put myself as a much higher priority in my life.
Over the past few months I’ve realised that I don’t care for myself as well as I care for others. I’ve come to the realisation that I’ve not properly cared for myself, I’ve not properly prioritised myself. And this year, 2019, that will change.
I need to be gentler with myself. I want to be healthier in myself. I must guard my free time and time off better than I have been doing. And these are things that only I can do.
I am eating healthier. I am keeping a journal. I am working with my doctor and a small team of support folks to hold me accountable. To make sure I rest, I eat, I mediate, I exercise, and most importantly, that I laugh.
I will learn to say no and not feel guilt. I will be more discerning to that which I say yes. I will learn to fall in love with myself…because really, I’m a pretty neat person.
This year will be the year I dig deep, turn myself inside out, and remind myself of who I truly am. I will be a priority in my life. I will learn to love myself…to truly love everything about me, including my many flaws. My goal will be to see me as God sees me. And that’s going to take a LONG time. But hey, time I have.
