This new year has already made history!
Before the new year began I kept reading how people were hoping for a better 2021 and ready to get rid of 2020.
As I was contemplating what people were saying about 2020, I read a post by a man who talked about how he had endured way harder things than what 2020 brought to his life.
His message resonated with me. I too have had harder years than 2020.
The two years that I carried my twins and then delivered them were way harder than anything I experienced this year.
Why is that?
It comes down to my thoughts!!!
I thought those years were harder.
I spent so many days this year deciding how I wanted to feel about all the changing circumstances occurring.
Sometimes I decided to just be annoyed instead of angry.
Other times I decided to be grateful instead of bitter.
Occasionally I wallowed in self-pity, decided it did not feel good and took a closer look at what I was thinking and why.
I have decided that I am going to let 2021 be 2021. I have no expectations.
I’ll probably be annoyed by some things in 2021, but I also will probably be grateful for a lot this year too!
