My head swirls with a thousand half-baked ideas, unfinished thoughts, the seeds of yet to be conceived plans. Bits and pieces of to-do lists in varying states of doing. The past yearโs accomplishments glowing and burning out, blinking, pulsing, a desperate attempt to remind me of their existence. Pushing against the thickness of uncertainty as the hyperactive parts of my mind rush to move on to the bigger and the better. The things I once fought so hard for, and not all that long ago at that, now sit in the dark, collecting dust. Taken for granted, shoved into long-term storage. Something worth keeping, sure, just no longer a source of pride, no longer the star of the show. But why? You canโt build a tenth story if you havenโt built the first nine. What if instead of tripping over the ghosts of last yearโs efforts and hard-earned wins, I dusted them off and climbed on top?
Happy New Year! It’s amazing how far you’ve come and step by step you’re showing others how it’s done! As always your writing and photography is incredible ๐
Thank you so much ๐๐
And just to be perfectly honest, while most of the photography is my own, on occasion, such as the bird photo here, it’s borrowed with permission from a friend! ๐ธ
