My word for the new year was Change. I forgot about the quiz, but then as I was beginning to reflect on 2018 and looking forward to 2019 I thought about that quiz.
I read a lot of blogs and inspirational stuff and one theme in January was selecting your word for the new year. I have tried this a few times, but come February I tend to slip back in to old habits and totally forget about all those well intended hopes.
For whatever reason, that Facebook quiz result just keeps gnawing at me and tugging on me. Am I thinking way too much into it?? Has social media brainwashed me??? I don't know, but I am embracing it. And for me, 2019 is a time for change.
Change: to make or become different; to make a shift from one to another; to undergo a modification
So many definitions.
My definition....
Change:
To switch my mindset of thinking...assume positive assumptions.. to embrace an open mind
To alter my expectations of myself, but more importantly others.
To let go of hurt, anger, resentment, and jealousy.
To open up my heart and allow the feelings...most importantly the feeling to let someone in and receive them as well as give to them.
To adjust my comfort zone and become excited about the future challenges.
So change is coming... big, little, scary, exciting, and heartfelt...
