Good Bye 2020 - Welcome 2021!
Closing my eyes, I visualized the air traveling into my lungs expanding my belly, my ribs, and my collar bones. Holding for a few seconds my mind went blank. Then like emptying a glass of water into the ocean, my lungs softened as my navel gently pressed towards the spine. Holding, until the hunger for air gave way to my next inspiration. Then I repeated, over, and over.
A bright light shining in the center of my heart, witnessing the 2020 journey.
It was without a doubt a year of excruciating suffering for many. Too many deaths, too much fear, so much division. In the midst of it all, a lot of us trying our best to keep it together: making the best of the time we have in solitude, reaching out to old friends, learning new skills, or finishing life projects.
Many days I found myself reaching inside for that warrior that doesn’t know how to give up – so she could guide the way. Because in the middle of my solitude, and compared to others, I had it good. I say this with survivor guilt and a heavy heart for the pain and suffering others have had to endure.
Truth is, we’ve all lost during this pandemic – something or someone (deeply sorry). Unfortunately, there will never be anything we can possibly do to make it better for those who have lost a loved one. My heart sends you all light and peace.
I sit here in my year end-reflection, getting ready to take a last look at my 2021 goals. I pray for a better year. I’m hoping for a time of recovery in which we reach inside to find our inner strength and become better than we ever thought possible. I wish love, wellness, and abundance for everyone during 2021.
It’s a blank slate. Let’s all get our brightest colors and paint our best strokes!
Happy New Year.
