Good bye to 47

Tomorrow will be my 48th birthday. What a difference a year makes!

I am healthy, happy and still remain living in gratitude. I have decided to work part time for now and see what’s out there for me. Soft living means that I strive to not caught up in the drama; for me, I focus on things that make me happy while benefitting others. I definitely want to further my work with local non-profits; the joy I get from working with my mentees in Red Bank is very fulfilling.

I want to have fun.
I think I’ve had enough strife for a while. Between the pandemic, my mother passing away, being displaced for almost a year and…oh yeah, cancer…I think I’m good. Let the fun begin. I am manifesting fun this year.

I want to laugh.
You know when you laugh so hard you have to stop to catch your breath? I want those moments.

I want to explore.
I feel like I’ve been in the USA for far too long. I am ready to see the world. Morrocco, Japan, India….I want to see it all.

I want to fix my mobility issues.
I am going to pilates exclusively and my goal is to take as many classes as I can to really work on and fix my balance and mobility issues.

I want to continue to be grateful.
Through all the noise in life, I just want to remain peaceful with myself and others.
