As chaos

Tries to reenter my life, I quickly find a quiet spot and light my cinnamon candle, and put out the peppermint.

To surround me with pure sweet scents to keep the darkness away.

And embrace the light more and more each day.

So that I can hopefully keep the darkness at bay this year, but for now, one day and hour and minute at a time will have to do.

Not gonna

Be the reasons I don’t show up and get things done.

I got to get up and move and not allow any reason to stop me.

So that excuses don’t just keep plowing up.

But become Extinct in my word unless it is a legit reason.

I am taking back my disciple and growing into someone who can and not I wish or should have done that.

No hiding, for I am not ashamed or embarrassed by who I am or what I want to do.

This will be the year I finally step out and be myself with no fear worth stopping me insight.

Like a deep

Breathe, I accept this change and hope for the best.

Everything will be great if I believe it; maybe it will come true.

Already day three of the new year, and the wonders of what to come is here.

Waiting for something to happen rather it be good or bad.

You are ready to pass the test and make this year even better as you won’t allow anything to hold you back.

New Year

New day and it seems to washing away any bad things as it’s been raining all day.

So much to look forward to this year for self growth as my state is yet again being shut down because of all the Covid cases.

I’ve accepted that life maybe more isolated as we all want to enjoy life and be out in the cold maybe not so much.

But to live a life that feels exciting and whole while praying that we don’t get sick is hard.

But I’ve accepted that being inside and spending more time with family is great and that my normal didn’t really change when the first lock down happened.

But as this year begins and some of the same things are happening again all I can do is have faith that we can be smarter and hopeful this year.

So that every day and moment is a blessing to experience no matter if you have to work harder to make that experience more well inside the box.
