It is now officially December. It’s the last month of the year. Time has moved so fast, but this is life itself. Having just finished the Thanksgiving weekend, I must say there are many reasons to be thankful. Being able to spend time with those you love is always a great thing. The laughs that we had are great in a time of uncertainty. Having fun while playing games is great because friendly competition never hurts. The large amount of food we ate is great at a time when people are struggling to put any food on their table. This next month is one that sets the tone for the upcoming year.
Each year I write down my goals with intentions. Goals that I will work on with the necessary energy to do so. Setting resolutions is not the best because everything is not meant to be solved in just a year’s time. But when you set goals, you allow yourself grace whether or not you complete them by years end. But the energy you set for yourself has a major influence.
As mentioned previously, coming off a holiday where you had opportunities to gather with those you love is beautiful. Being able to keep up the energy in this new month is even greater. This past year has been tough for many. There are some I know who have experienced loss in the last few weeks. But one thing I plan for myself is to end this year with love and happiness. I will continue to be thankful for all that I have and the people in my life. So many things can happen this next month, but what I make of it will be the test to how I will start my 2026. It’s the 1st of the month. My question to you all is, how will you set your energy for the new the year in the next thirty days?
