I love a new month, it feels like it is a new beginning. This month I vow to slow down. Not necessarily because I want to, but because my soul needs me to. Last month's theme seemed to be, "Full Steam Ahead". Was great at first, but then I became overwhelmed and felt like I couldn't complete any of the 1000 things I was trying to do.
This month's theme I vow to make, "Slow down." Write for the sake of writing, learn for the sake of learning, read for the love of reading. In my children's lives, I need to reflect this as well. What am I teaching those kids of mine if I'm constantly nagging them to hurry? Do I want them to end up like me? I don't think so.
I have a lifetime to learn what I need to, write what I want to, and be who I need to be.
