Week 53
It’s the final post of the year 🎄
It’s that awkward middle week between Christmas and the new year. I like to used the week to appreciate the year behind me and reset for the next year.
Reflecting on 2023, I can see I was a little more tuned into my feelings and my needs than ever before. I kept working on growth and fulfillment in my career and preparing for the next phase of life (and possibly a future with kids). Whatever the future holds, I’m feeling more ready for it and more ambitious in going after my goals. It feels a little like I’ve woken up from a 4 year sleep and I’m tired of the holding pattern my career and general life have been in (even after two cross country moves).
In 2024 I won’t be holding myself to posting a picture every week, but I’ll keep taking pictures and posting them. Albeit, probably with less consistency, maybe I’ll set up lots of posts at once and forget to post anything new for a couple months. However that shakes out, I know I’ll keep going on my daily long walks and take pictures (for the sake of art and memories) whenever the mood strikes me. I’ll keep up with reading too, maybe set my goal to 50 books, since I got to the 40’s before August (when I started studying).
Cheers to 2023, the year that made me even more comfortable in my own skin. The year that taught me to look for interesting sights in every day views and appreciate the world around me. The year I finally felt ready to do some growing up.
