New Year

It is a new year.  There is new hope and so much optimism. 
I can't seem to muster much of it right now. 
I have set my intentions and this first day of this new year was productive and relaxing.  I spent most of the day cleaning out clutter, preparing for the possibilities that are ahead. 

And yet, I am feeling nothing exceptional. 
I always do this.  Every single year.  I am completely open to possibility, but I don't really allow myself to feel it until the day has passed. 
I am still reeling from this past year.  Just because the calendar has turned doesn't mean that things are different.  All of the events and emotions  that haunted my last year still linger. 

So tonight my daughter and I set an intention to close our day with the sunset.  To stop, breathe in the end of the sun as many days of this year as we can. 

This is where I will set my intention.  With my daughter and husband and the appreciation of every day because I got to live it.  Even if it's difficult, especially if it's magnificent.

Finding my way, living this dream.
