MAKE 2024 A GOOD ONE

December 27, 2023

As the end of 2023 approaches it’s time to reflecti on the past year with an eye towards things to come in the next one.

After Christmas indulgences I always revisit familiar resolutions; get on track with healthier eating, exercising more and of course, lose those extra pounds! Always those extra pounds!

I’ve come to realize what’s more important, loving and realistic is self acceptance. So perhaps those extra pounds aren’t so bad after all. My walks are shorter than they used to be and jogging? Just isn’t going to happen! It’s all good and I’m trying to meet myself where I actually am and look for joy there.

I value time and this year I’d like to use it more productively. We don’t get time back once it’s gone. Spending time with friends and loved ones is very high on my list of resolutions. Spending fewer hours surfing the web at the expense of creative time is high on my list too.

Thanks so much for taking your time to read my visual blog. Wishing you a very happy, healthy and loving new year!

Hugs,

Joanne
