There are many goals that I have for this year. Writing more is one of them. I love writing, but somewhere along the journey I got out of the habit. Recently, I realized how much I treasure the online journal that I kept for most of my 20's. Even though some of the entries are rather embarrassing, I love that I get a glimpse into the mind of that version of me. There's an appreciation I have for how well that version of me took care of herself. I didn't know it then, but writing helped me understand myself in a way that has yielded the current version of myself. I am so thankful for that.

I want to document my thoughts, my day, my mistakes and my successes. I want to do this for myself, but also as evidence to my daughter that it is possible to live life how she desires and that she should spend time thinking about and curating a life that she loves.

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
