Personally, I'm not ready for the resolution talk for next (week) year... but I DID spend some time reflecting today. With all that's going on, I'm feeling the weight of this year coming to an end and realizing how much we've really gone though. I've been on fight-or-flight for quite some time and it's now time to slow down and reflect. I've realized I really want to take some things into 2022, and I say that as not a resolution to "start" next week, but to give myself some grace. I've been taking care of myself, but I'd like to keep taking care of myself better - more. I need to recognize when it's time to say "no" and do something purely for recharging my own battery.
But I also love that I've found new ways of nurturing relationships this year when physical presence couldn't be an option. Phone check ins, texts, or mailing something nice has been a great shift for me. I'd like to keep doing that as well.
I've realized we may have longer to go with all that's going on in the pandemic and whatnot.. but it's time to take a deep breath and re-center.
Anyone else feeling this way? What have you found to help? Any epiphanies or realizations?
