I would be lying if I said I was not inspired by new year resolutions. While the little devil on my shoulder taunts my hopes with forgotten resolutions or failed attempts, I can't help but contrive new goals to reach for on New Year's Day.
Last night we started a new tradition. I read that in Russia, people write down a wish on a piece of paper, burn it, toss the ashes in a glass of champagne and down it before 12:01 am.
So, we did it. It was elating for me. To sip away my wishes with dreams of them coming true.
This will be my year of adventure.
Of exploration;
of self, of the world, of humanity.
A year of travels.
A year of change.
A year to live.
Not a year of wishing I exercised more or made more money. A year to experience. To remember.
To really live.
Great post! Makes me think of actually living instead of wishing I did this or that. thank you for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThat is very kind of you. Thank you! :) I wish that we could all lose some of those worldly inhibitions and responsibilities. Just enjoy our time here just a little more. Pass it on!
