Dear Steemers,

I hope everybody had a joyful holiday season, and for those who could not fully enjoy this period, may you still have the positive energy to push your dreams forward no matter what.

So, I don't normally make any New Year's resolution, but for this year I do have one: to enjoy all the little things happening in my life yet more than I do. This is basically going to be my new beginning.

I haven't been having the easiest time of my life recently, however, it has helped me realize that there is already so much to cherish in the everyday life, and I feel like counting some of them here :-).

(1). I want to take a moment and be thankful for all the freedom I enjoy as it is, from what I have come to understand, one of the most important needs I have as a being. I couldn't possibly make it if my will wouldn't be so free - spoiled me!

(2). There is love given to me everyday of my life from beautiful, joyful, lovely and positive-spirited people; I am truly blessed in that sense, so here's to them!

(3). Friendship, that silver lining comfort between family love and the lack of judgement. I honestly don't know how I would have made it through important phases of my life if it wasn't for the precious support and the long night conversations among friends.

(4). COFFEE! ;-) Let's just go back to the very basics :D. A good espresso or a mocha/cappuccino is an absolute need every morning of my life. I shall praise you more this year, my dear [coffee].

(5). Being so near the seaside. In all seasons, temperatures, weathers or moods, going to the seaside always brings positive energy for me. And I am so lucky to only have to travel 25 minutes or max an hour and voila, I am pouring my thoughts in the horizon in front of me.

This was my counting of what I want to appreciate even more this new year. Please do share with me your thoughts or resolutions, if any. Would love to hear from you.

Until my next post, keep enjoying life dear Steemers :-)
