― Jarod Kintz, This Book Title is Invisible
For the past year I have been an utter failure at blogging. The good news is that I was a pretty amazing success at living! I am beyond grateful for the experiences I had in that one, fascinating year. As the author quoted above said, I feel like it is a year worth celebrating! I don't suppose I changed the world, but I might have influenced a few people for the better, and I know that my own world was definitely altered. Hopefully this next year I will improve on sharing the lessons and adventure from this wonderful life of mine!
An even more exciting reason to celebrate, is the year that lies ahead! It is full of so much delicious unknown! And so many amazing adventures are already in the works! I have this incredible knack for never knowing where I will be in a year - and yet I always seem to get to where I need to be :) I have no doubt that this 32nd year in my existence will turn out similarly, and I am leaping forward into the many wonderful possibilities that come from trusting God and enjoying the moments. I've set goals, I'm discovering new dreams, and I'm reclaiming my health, happiness and independence.... at least that's my aim. Can't hurt to dream big right?!
It seems that today is the perfect day to jump back on the blogging wagon, so that I can share the incredible joy I feel in my heart right now. This is the best birthday I have had in years - not defined by the events, or even the people I have shared it with, but by how completely loved and blessed and happy I feel. I know good things are in store, and yet I have everything I need, right here and now.
It truly is a very happy birthday for me!
