2019: A year for action. I looked back to what I resolved to do when 2018 began:
- Listen in the moment without forming my response
- Daily thanks
- Use my mom’s china
- Move every day
- Write
- Let go of hurt
I’ve excused the jury. On to 2019.
- Be thankful for little things
- Write the stories bubbling inside me
- Stop saying no to myself before I’ve even begun
- Write five days a week
- Use my mom’s china
I know I’ll keep moving every day because that is what powers my writing, my thinking, my teaching, my ability to be thankful. As I begin, next week, the final portfolio course of my master’s in professional creative writing, I can hardly believe it’s been just three short years since I started down that path. I’ve learned so much and have so much more to learn. I’m going to graduate in March! I could get mired in the student debt I’ll then have to start paying back, but I choose not to.
I will focus, as best I can, on my writing and publishing and staying to true to the stories that live and breathe inside of me. A year for action, welcome 2019!
A blessed New Year to you and Robert ❤️❤️
