Fare-thee-well 2022!

Saying goodbye is not my thing, but I have learned that closures can be great.  If I must move on, there are things I must let go. So I am getting all prepped up to say goodbye to 2022.

As the year started to wind up, I told myself that December is  not a deadline! Yes, my goals will always be time bound but if they do not happen at the time I planned, it doesn't mean that they won't happen another time.  I will carry on working on them. Time is only a guide,not a limitation or finality.

I also told myself that success is not only limited to reaching my targets, getting an award, buying a new house or car etc. The hugs, smiles, inspiration , hope reborn, joys, respect I received or gave are priceless and unquantifiable bits of success too.  Henceforth,Success will be defined by my own standards. I will move at my pace.   I made up my mind not to dwell on what went wrong. I have learnt from them and will continue to learn from them. The lessons I learnt from mistakes I made are gemstones I will be needing in my  change making journey. So I am carrying them along.

I will arm my self with expectations, I will keep dreaming. I have wiped my tears, but I will not forget how it stung  my eyes.  I will wear my scars like a badge of honor, but I will not forget the pains of my wounds.

I Will not let applause dim my vision as I savour it's sweetness. I will not let success numb  me. I  forge ahead. Instead, my wins in 2022 will be reminders that my future goals are achievable.

I close the door now. 

Good bye 2022.

Welcome 2023!
