We have shopped for others, brought extra to people in our community when we could and have been rewarded with more of the same. We have ended relationships that are full of cruelty, anger and deceit. We have worked hard to cultivate ones that are healthy. Some of this has not been easy but it has been for the best. We don’t mind giving but there are people who will take everything you have and still say hateful things about you. They will twist reality and reverse roles until you feel as if you have gone insane.
Less drama and more growth. Growth of personal and professional relationships, growth of ourselves and growth of our business. Growth of friendships that feel like family and the ability to really enjoy the closeness of healthy relationships. There has been a lot of recorded voice texts, FaceTime and hilarious gifs shared. We have shared true sadness and grief about the way our world has changed.
This is the year we give ourselves and our home a makeover. This house is getting old and it’s pieces and parts need rejuvenated. We replaced the air conditioner and furnace last year. We need new floors and a new roof this year. We have been saving and have paid off our credit cards. We are joining a grocery club for preserving imperfect foods and hope that this program will both help the world with less waste and help us to eat better in our home. We are relearning how to exercise with some physical limitations and world limitations. It has been hard to feel okay and be normal in a world that feels like it is falling apart. We have been immensely busy despite the world slowing down. In some ways this has been a lost year but in others it has been one of our most productive yet. We are sorry that some of the people we love did not want to be part of our journey, but we have been building our fire for years and now it burns bright.
