A New Year Ahead: It Will Be What You Make of It!

It is that time of the year where some people set goals, and some people make New Year's resolutions, and some people turn their lives completely upside down in service of striking out in a new direction because their life simply isn't working.

Experience basically tells me a couple of things.

One is that life is pretty much what you make of it. Sometimes you just have to go out there and do whatever it is you think you need to do, because it is easy to get trapped in focusing too much on planning, and not enough on doing.

The other is that no matter how much we might like to think otherwise, we really have no idea what's going to happen. We don't like to think about that because it unnerves us to consider that everything could be that random and unknown, but as often is not things don't turn out anything like we planned!

But that's actually okay! And we can learn to make peace with that!

Just this morning, I was thinking to myself and wondering whether 2024 will be the year when I finally find enough time to make the Red Dragonfly blog a little more active.

Then I realized that if that was important to me, I would make the time so that could happen. There is no magical "it" that's going to suddenly strike down and do it.

I appreciate you coming to visit my blog!
