2014 was rough. But it didn't start that way. Tricking me by coming in like a lamb, and somewhere around late summer morphing into a nasty lion, I'm not sad to see it go.
I'm not much for resolutions. I've always tried to be a resolution person but I end up getting lazy or forgetful and abandoning whatever it was I had resolved to do (or not to do, whatever the case may be.)
This year, I have a few goals. Realistic, measurable, attainable. I don't need to shout them from the rooftops or document them for the masses. This year I'm trying something different...I'm living for me, for what God has for me and that's it. No longer struggling to make everyone else happy or doing what is good for others if it's detrimental for me. I love my family and friends and I'll always be here for anyone who needs anything, but I'm done putting myself last and sacrificing my happiness and sanity for others.
I'm done carrying the heavy burdens of fear, anxiety, and extreme, unwarranted loyalty. Instead of feeling responsible for others happiness and well being, I'm giving all that to God and choosing to focus on bringing happiness into my own life and making sure my needs are taken care of. I'm choosing to love others, and to finally consider myself worthy of my own love.
