In 90 days:
I became my own boss, again.
I made a new routine.
I wallowed in despair and I found joy in the unknown but self-controlled future. To feel the pride in knowing I’m at the very least in the correct niche of the hospitality industry after a client meeting, is something I’d like to bottle up & use as a daily spritz. To have found time for projects and visions and fun I was kicking down the road for a hopeful-future-use & to revel in the space created, has been energizing.
I’ve always said I don’t believe the new year is in the dead of winter, it’s in the spring because it aligns with the burst of life that happens both in nature & in my attitude. Watching it all come back to life is doing the same inside me. Knowing anything is possible with a bit of warmth.
In a book I just finished, there was a line that stuck: “Life is a series of choices. All we can do is make the best decision we can at every turn, hope for the best and deal with the consequences.”
How perfectly fitting of a reminder to accept the choices made & to celebrate what comes along. Is life going the way it was ‘planned’ a decade ago, nope. But there’s so much life left to come, no point in squandering it.
I have no clue if hashtags work anymore or what ai is looking for, but if this found its way to you and it hit a tiny bit of your feels; please let me know. There’s power in community, in all realms.
💚✨ love & light, K
