The time has come to reveal my word of the year!! I’m going to explain how significant starting the year with a word of intention has been for me. I’m excited to do it again this year & am hopeful it’ll have the same outcome.
I haven’t been looking forward to 2020. More particularly, the New Year. The beginning of the year has always been the hardest part of the year – clouded with being sick or cold or the frustration of early sunsets or allergies. And this year, my mind was too aware of all those things so I decided I’m a second-half performer.
YAY! It’s officially 2019. It’s here, we made it! And another year bites the dust. Is anyone ready to get back to their regularly scheduled program with work & food? All the sugar & extra meals can get annoying. I made a Pecan Pie & literally cut it in half for Wafiq & I to split. Excuse me while I vomit.
My favorite part of the Missbassmaster online space is storytelling… That’s one of the reasons I started in the first place. I’ve always loved writing. Because there’s not a ton of drama in my life, being able to get dramatic with an otherwise average day feels adventurous.
For anyone that hasn’t had a chance to read my old posts, below are a few of my favorites from 2017! Enjoy!
Dating A Muslim Immigrant… During The “Muslim Ban”
Tis a sign of the times… I love this post because, Wafiq. What an interesting time it was. We happened to just be finishing our own immigration journey during this time & learned TONS of immigration info we never knew before. Which I think is why we were super comfortable. Even though people were freaking out. I remember we were happy, lucky & together 🙂
2018 is on it’s way! Lets set goals, shall we?!
No.
No we shall not.
I thought a lot about this. The big, long-term beautiful (somewhat vague) end goal is always in sight, but all the others change. I love it! I welcome change, even though I fear it. As ideas & goals shift throughout the year, you create new agendas & updated accordingly. Which is why, now that it’s 2018 & resolutions are all the talk, you shouldn’t feel pressure to make them.
I’ve learned one of the worst things you can do to yourself is lose your own trust. Disappoint yourself. I know any goal I set on Jan 1, 2018 will end up changing, therefore I’ll end up disappointing myself & losing my trust. Which is a big no-no. So, fuck the 2018 goals.
