As the year ends, I reminisce.
I reminisce about all the things, good or bad, that this year left us with. The people who stayed, the ones who left and especially the moments lived to be remembered instead of imagined hypothetically.
This year saw me fight against so many tribulations and win, sometimes. It saw me grow stronger and celebrate and it saw me allowing me to sit and cry. It saw me love myself harder than before and give myself peace and space.
This year I came to peace with the word “coexistence”, understanding that you can feel conflicting things at the same time and it does make sense. And you can allow yourself to feel both whenever you need to, without guilt.
I absolutely love being able to say I spent it with my husband and that I was able to hug all my siblings, nephews and mom several times this year, I don’t take that for granted.
For you, if this year is saying goodbye on a sad note or a happy one (and everything in between), allow yourself to feel the way you do and, if you may, to look forward to better times at the same time.
Nostalgia and excitement can coexist. You can remember the past and dream about the future, but don’t let either stop you from enjoying today.
Remember to ground yourself: You’re here and now.
May this new year bring you many memories to remember with love a year from today and many experiences to learn from a lifetime from now.
Happy New Year from us 💕 from Dallas for the holidays with love.
See you next year!!!
Kindly,
Giselle
