It wont be long before we will be seeing in bells
and a quick smooch to seal the new year. So iv been turning my mind
to what I would like to accomplish next year. Of course most people
have the goal of shedding the Christmas weight, and well iv been
shedding it since June, so its not something that's really on my "To
Do" list.
Its really hard, when you sit down and think about
it, what really makes you happy. Its all well and good buying pretty
things but when it comes down to it these things only make you happy
on the surface for a little while. What makes me happy? I don't think
I really know. I love my partner, and I adore my little girl more
than the world. Stepping outside that little bubble there isn't much
else that makes up my life.
I'm very lucky to have a roof over my head, a bed
to sleep in, food in the cupboard and security in my life. I think we
can all become somewhat comfortable and take for granted when the
basic needs are met and its very easy to slip into a mundane
existence. I know I have.
So for this year I would like to turn around what
makes me happy. Setting aside time to explore the world around me. A
world outside of fear and the anxiety that grips me. I want to do
silly little things like a picnic under the stars, go camping, see a
band play.
I want to set this year right, and live life. I
don't want to be held back by believing money is what makes me happy.
After its all gone I want to be able to sit and know that when I
close my eyes for the final time, memories of love, heartache, tears
and sweat are with me.
Here is to a living a 2016 and forever without
fear.
Much Love,
Umber x
PS. What is your goal this year?
