βNew beginnings are often disguised as painful endings.β Lao Tzu
Happy new year! I’m back and boooyyyy do I have plans for you guys on this blog. I had an amazing december, so good that it took me nearly two weeks for that holiday hangover to end, you know; can’t remember what day it is, time flying, leisure strolls etc. I guess I got the reboot I needed, God knows I did.
I am so excited for 2019. I never make a fuss about a new year, but I just have a vibe things will be better this year, especially here. It’s a real downer that dementors decided to suck the joy and happiness from 2019 but we are about to patronous the sh*t out of them#Kenyaunbowed (you’re cool peeps if you got that π ). My deepest condolences to those who lost loved ones and my prayers go out to all those going through this tough time, God shall see you through it.
Unto lighter and happier moments happening…today, my loyal reader is our !BLOGVERSARY! Three years wuhuuu! I want to shake things up in here and get back to being super excited about the creative directions that have been in the pipeline since I started this journey. I won’t say anything, for now, last time my mouth wrote a cheque my a$$ couldn’t cash, no excuses this year. As always, I never make new years resolutions but choose a ‘mantra’ per se, which I try to follow through the whole year. In 2018 it was ‘joy &happiness’ and wow what a journey, harrowing but worth it. How it works is basically you choose a word that sums up and reflects what you want to achieve that year. Everything I did I asked myself if it will contribute to my joy/happiness, if not I keep it moving. The lessons I learnt can last me a lifetime or two. I can make a post about it if you are intersted…and yes I found what I was looking for and it’s what you would think and not. Some cliches are exactly that because they are the truth. My word for 2019 is, success. Emotional, physical, psychological, spiritual, financial; holistic success using my yardstick and none of this peer pressure, social media unattainable fantasies. I even made a vision board…smh. I always ridiculed them but I’m not one to shoot something down without a fair trial. At the very least it will get me out of my bed to read it, #shortsighted sister, here. So what are your plans and resolutions?
Now, tell me do you want to see on the blog this year? Please let me know, in as much, it is my blog, I do it for you guys too…duh! hehe. I want to make content that I know will be of interest and entertaining for you, so we can both enjoy the process.
