Welcome back, time to reflect and take note, as we leave 2023 behind. Time to think and plan and face the year ahead.
I’m sure that many of us know the usual platitudes in these most recent days and weeks … new year, new beginnings! This is a time to look back, but don’t dwell too long, and a time to see how far you have come and to celebrate. Looking back gives us the courage to be open with grace and gratitude for the year ahead, to be grateful for the symbolic event of starting over. Be courageous, dream always, work hard, play hard, love and be loved, look back but always look forward. Find Joy!
Practice self-reflection, self-compassion, and empathy!
“Light tomorrow with today.”
~ Elizabeth Barrett Browning
