One more year gone. 2017 hmmm Lots of ups, a few downs, and much learned.
When I think about being 46, I accept that even in the best case scenario I’m probably half way done with my time on this planet. I’m happy with my physical self – I’m probably in the best shape I’ve been in since I was in my early 20’s :o)... Sarcasm 😉😊
As I get older, this becomes more and more important to me - that I become at peace with myself and who I am and understand how God can use even me. I am just now becoming accepting of myself. I spent years fighting who I was and lamenting "me"- always wanting to be something I am not - longing to be more beautiful, more talented, quieter, less sensitive, whatever!!!
I’ve worked really hard to get to a place where I get to spend almost all of my time with people who I want to spend time with. I’ve been able to do this while figuring out how to engage with lots of new, interesting people all the time. I’m going to work even harder at this at 46 – more great people, no assholes.
So my resolution for 2018 is continue spending almost all of my time with people who I want to spend time with. And today I will stop to thank God that I am loved. I will stop and remember that I AM special, no matter what others tell me.
