So many feelings, creative projects, cold winter activities, and the sweetest people to end and start the year with ❄️🤍🪩☃️
I think what I loved most about this last month was the pace of it, and the mindset that came with that. My expectations were low, and somehow my zest for life went up because of it. I learned how to downhill ski, read a few novels, put a couple of blog posts online, went ice skating whenever possible, worked on my art in an inspiring flow state, and spent a lot of time just sitting on the floor playing with my puppy. I also celebrated another birthday and felt really good about turning a year older.
I guess for the next few months I know what matters most if I want to enjoy them fully: lower my expectations and go lightly.
What about you? Did you have a good transition into the new year? I hope you’re feeling hopeful and content about 2026 ✨
