I absolutely love New Year’s. I don’t know why but it really does feel like you get a shiny new package full of possibility…a fresh start. Last year was a good one, but even so I am ready for a new one.
Last year I ended Chemotherapy and put my cancer to rest (hopefully forever). I moved from sunny Arizona to Ohio. I saw my oldest son heal (epilepsy). I moved into a home that I love. And the best part of last year was that my relationship with my husband evolved into something that takes my breathe away. It might seem strange to say but cancer might have been the best thing to ever happen to me. Being so sick for so long taught me some valuable life lessons and it changed my entire family.
I sat down yesterday and outlined goals and resolutions…a few of which I will share:
This year resolve to spend more time (alone) with my husband. I will tell him every day that he is my greatest love and my best friend. I will read more books and fewer blogs. I will buy less “stuff”. I will get more active in my community. I will eat more raw/living foods. I will find some form of exercise that I love as much as I liked my daily hikes in Arizona. I will quit wondering if this location is right for me and just plant some roots already. I will laugh with abandon. I will use my video camera more. I will find a babysitter I can trust so that I can spend more time doing the things that I love. I will find more time for myself this year. I will recapture some of my youthful vitality.
Now of course I do have some more specific goals for different aspects of my life, including goals for personal development, business, my relationships, parenting, ect. but I won’t bore you with all of them. Although I did post about my green goals. Let me just wish you a Happy New Year and invite you to share with me some of your goals and hopes for the new year.
