New You EVERYDAY

Well once again this is for my benefit to get my words down on paper and hopefully it will benefit you as well. What do I feel accomplished in for 2018? Hmmm…

One being I’m grateful that I still have my family present, as dysfunctional as they are…that’s family for ya, only connected by blood, but willing to bleed for you no matter what- in the best case scenarios.

Two- I’m grateful for those in my life that are my adopted family. They love me unconditionally and just get ‘IT’.

And for 1 and 2 being present so I can give and them receive vice versa. Isn’t it a great feeling? That’s #3.

Four- To be purposeful in all my actions as I do for others, nothing makes me happier than seeing a smile on their face.

My goals for this New Year? Of course I want to lose weight, continue to eat healthy, those are just known goals everyone wants to succeed at. Make lots of MONEY??? How bout somewhere in the middle where we can meet half way and agree on somethings?

I would just aspire to want to continue being purposeful in every action doing good for others AND LIVE IN THE PRESENT. I want to not be: materialistic,  forget mankind, be coldhearted, and only be out for myself. HOWEVER I DO WANT to be a reason someone thinks to themselves after I hold the door open for them, or let them go ahead of me in the lane in front of me, that there are still good people in the world.

My Reiki teacher text me today thanking me for the Christmas and New Years Card, thanking me for putting the TIME into writing her one, that people just don’t do that anymore. Her exact words. Everyone seems to be blinded in a rat race and I’m one of the few that wants to get off the track. Time with loved ones seem to be forgotten, a value lost in the shuffle as other cards that seem to be valued more, take it’s spot closer to the top of the deck and deemed more important.

Positivity sends positive ripples in a world that’s been so hardened. That’s my New Year Resolution.

and my goal to appreciate the present is to write a gratitude list every day if I can.

I know I said thank you already above, but this is just a continuation of that.

Thank you Danielle for picking up the floor lamp from my truck to the store so I can return it, being that I shouldn’t lift things over 10 lbs. anymore since it throws off my balance.

Thank you Neil for being in my life to make me laugh as I try to make everyone possible take my great food.

and

Thank you Bree Bree for screaming in my ear when your hungry and kneading me while purring when you’re full. I couldn’t ask for a better cat companion (literally) to spend life with.
