With the New Year, many of us turn to resolutions. Will this be the year that you conquer a fear? Will you start a new business, or change something about your life that has been nagging at you for some time?
With all of these resolutions swirling around us, I find it hard to allow myself to be content with where I am. This year, I am actually not writing resolutions or promising myself change.
Instead, I am promising myself continued contentment, and continued positivity towards myself and others. This starts with me grounding in what I believe makes me happy as a person – simple meals at home, time with true friends, good books, cozy spaces.
