It's the beginning of a new year, and just in time too. These last 4 weeks have been really hard for me, and that's saying something! I'm one tough cookie, but lately the universe has really tested that theory. Which is why, it is so wonderful to get a chance to start fresh. It's only the mark of a new year, but as you well know, it does feel like more. We welcome the chance to start over, to make this year better than the last. We make promises, resolutions, and manifestos for our new life.
One that I read this morning caught my attention, "Stop making yourself miserable by letting someone take up space in your head." -Suzanne Lucas.
This is one of the many things I have been battling these last couple weeks. We all have so much potential for creativity, for ideas, for changing the world, and unfortunate we waste a lot of the energy and space we have on someone else, or even worse someone or something that makes us miserable. So lets stop that in 2016. Easier said then done, but I refuse to be drug into the depths again by life, I will go down fighting this time. I'm not going to give up on my happiness, because I deserve to be happy. And that is something that took a long time to face, and it is still something I am fighting to fully internalize.
There is already so much out there waiting to test us, and make us miserable, we don't need to manifest it inside ourselves. We need to put ourselves at the top of our priority list, not at the bottom, or worse not even on it. I can't promise myself that I won't be crushed by life again, but I can promise myself that I won't be the crusher. I'm on my side this time. I'm fighting for me.
