This is the New Year


"Say everything you've always wanted,
Be not afraid of who you really are."
A Great Big World


Hmmm...
food for thought.
I don't think I'll ever ever ever
be able to say everything I've always wanted.
My mind works overtime.
Has more thoughts, ideas, opinions, commentaries
and stories
than anyone could ever have time to tell.
I can, however, decide to say the important stuff.
To not shrink back.
Mostly,
I want to
ALWAYS EXPRESS
the positive stuff.
To tell people they are loved.
Cherished.
To express the gratitude that fills my heart!
Yes.
Most of all I want to shout out all the good stuff.

As far as not being afraid of who I really am?
Well.
That's a good one.
A really good thought.
A thought I'll carry with me across this old wooden bridge, 
through my favorite woods
and back into my real life.
No.
More.
Fear.

  3. That line is a great sentiment. I think taken in the right context it is something we could all do with being and doing more often
