Life Happens
At the beginning of the New Year, my daughter asked me “Mom, so what’s your New Year’s Resolution?” then she went on and on listing her promises of do’s and don’ts, and I lost track after number 10 because I was so preoccupied with actually creating MY own list!
Don’t worry, I didn’t provide the wrong file, it’s the right one. And yes, it’s blank. Because this year, I decided I don’t need a list after all. Some of us set such high unrealistic resolutions that the moment we fail, even though we feel bad, we shrug it off and say “oh well, try again next year”, then we go through the rest of the year repeating that phrase to ourselves, justifying our shortcomings. Sound familiar? Yeah.

But this year, I’m going to let myself BE, because the truth of it is, LIFE HAPPENS.

TRUE and I couldn't agree more!!! Life IS short and this is not a DRESS REHEARSAL!! We don't get another "take" !! Find something you LOVE to do and DO IT on a regular basis... and it is for that reason I follow the advice of a DJ who always signs off with this wisdom !!
