Happy New Year. Yes, it's January 1st. The first day in the new year. It's a time when people are making changes and trying once again to get their *ish together. But, if you made it through 2020 consider yourself ahead of the game.
2020 was a helleva year for everyone especially my family. We worked through my husband being laid off, kids virtual learning, me working a different schedule and a slew of other non-fun things we are still adapting to and pushing though.
When my anxiety was at its highest, my therapist recommended that I start journaling and documenting the emotions I was feeling during this time. To my surprise, I didn't have as much negative energy as I thought. To be honest my emotions were more aligned with being content and grateful things weren't worse. I try to hold on to these feelings throughout the day. Also, I have started to let people around me know how much they mean to me. If this year has taught us anything, its that people leave our lives at the most unexpected times and I never want to leave anything unsaid.
So, a few things to remember in the New Year...
Do unto others as you would want done to you
Hold on and enjoy the moment
Appreciate what you have and go after what you want
It's okay to fall down but don't stay down, a new day offers us a new chance
I know what I'm saying sounds cliche especially when you have hit rock bottom but God makes no mistakes.
