Feeling unsure about 2023 (grwm) \\ New Year resolutions for 2024 \\ Finding peace, love, acceptance

[@ThePracticalIntuitive]

Hey Megan. Thanks for sharing. I do my best to not compare myself to what others do. I limit where I get my worldly news from so I don't get overwhelmed with all the bad things that go on in our world. 2023 was hell for me but there were some good moments that I am proud of. I moved into a new home and I have a new/used vehicle. In terms of doing something different every year, since summer is my favorite part of the year, I decided I would wake up every morning and put on 1 outfit that made me look and feel amazing. I can honestly say, it boosted my confidence the whole summer. So I plan to do that again next summer. I have seasonal depression so winter is the worst for me. Don't really have clothing that makes me feel amazing but I'm doing my best. I guess that's something I can work on for next winter. One more positive thing I did for myself in 2023 was finally getting myself a primary care provider. It was long over due cause I'm in my mid 30's and never cared for my health. So my goal for 2024 is simply self care. I just want to do all the things that make me fell amazing and do less of the things that don't. 🤷🏾‍♀️

I think this is what it comes down to! Doubling down on the good stuff and getting rid of the bad. Good job on all you accomplished this year - I think those are big wins! Moving is a ton of work, AND you got a car too. That's a lot of progress. I think it's awesome that you're making room for more self-care. You deserve it.

2023 flew by so fast and it feels like nothing really happened. Thinking about it it makes me realize that this mindset of having time split in years and expetcting life to be cyclic is nonsense. Life just happens. 3 years nothing happens and then in a month your whole life can change. From now on I'll take it for what it is rather than thinking about it in year cycles. Btw on the having kids topic: I alwayw say, it's not a drama not to have kids. The drama is having kids when you're aren'tbsure about it or not willing to make them your absolute priority. There are so many traumatized kids, because their parents had them even though they were not willing to commit to parenthood. The more I observe people, the more I come to the conclusion that the reasonable decision in most cases would've been not to have children.

[@YourBFFMegan]

I couldn't agree more. I think people get so caught up in the idea that having kids is what you're "supposed" to do. Get married, have kids. It's nuts to me that this is the expectation/assumption. I love the way you look at time. Spot on. Time is so fluid and like you said, it can change in the blink of an eye. Starting with a "clean slate" is nice, but you don't have to wait until Jan 1 for that. :-)

I feel like a lazy loser for not trying to become a dictator in a constitutional democratic republic.
