ABSENCE
It’s been a minute since I have been back to my blogging, and I have very much missed it and all of you as well! Happy New Year 25′ and being that it is “in fact” still January, January 27th to be exact, there is still plenty of time to bedazzle and embellish this beautiful time.
SURVIVING
How are you all doing? Are you embracing the changes, feeling a bit nervous, a bit excited, not sure where you fit exactly? You aren’t alone. Did Christmas of 24′ feel a bit strange? Uncertain? Unfamiliar in a way? Maybe you were feeling a bit more nostalgic or reminiscing of childhood days, or times when life was a tad bit more relatable…sound familiar? If you can relate to the last few sentences, then you may feel as I do…in complete wonderment how 2025 is going to play out?! Sometimes the unknown can hold its own strength from afar and set the stage for childlike anticipation.
ANTICIPATION
Although, as I write this, times seem a bit confusing, challenging, and did I mention maybe even a little scary? The word that kept resonating with me is “anticipation”, the meaning of the word has more substance to me now than it ever has. Anticipation “State of expectation or hope”…. this word and its definition are what I need right now, isn’t it what we all we need right now? Hypothetically speaking of course!
CHALLENGES
So far, January 2025 has proven to be a challenging month for me. Normally, I look forward to challenges and all that it has to offer, but this year, this month has caught me off guard and the days have been not only challenging but have been lacking in enthusiasm and gratitude. Don’t get me wrong, I am grateful for many things in my life and embrace uncertainty as most of us do, but time marches to a different beat at the moment for me and I must willingly march with it.
GLIMMER
Glimmer~verb: to shine faintly with a wavering light…that could mean a lot of different things to many, but to me, right now, it’s the hope of the future. A new day, a new beginning, a New Year and we still have a few days left In January 2025! Maybe just maybe we can all find that bit of glimmer in our lives, whatever that may be or look like to you. And in that I cheer each of you on, including myself to embrace this New Year with renewed anticipation, hope and Love. Happy New Year everyone, to 2025 and beyond!
