I'm ok with it.

It's January.

On December 30th, I was pondering my lot in life. I may or may not have been thinking about setting some resolutions or making some changes. And these words came into my mind (and saved me).  The words were simply a reminder of something I already knew but had forgotten: I am free.

I'm free. I plan to keep reminding myself. Sometimes my brain likes to try to convince me that I'm stuck somewhere. Like, "I have this bucket of candy leftover from Christmas and I have to eat it. I simply must."  But that is a lie.  I am free.

Or, "I have set up this pattern in my life and I am not going to be able to get myself out of it." But again, not true. Nothing about yesterday or last month or last year has to influence what I choose today. Just so you know.

So I'm facing January with courage. Want to join me?
