Last Year. New Year. Same Hope
My quest for 2017 is to not be on such a grueling quest anymore. To not constantly be looking for the very things that I have been so fortunate to already attain. To not look for love in the wrong or expected places. To simply be who I am. To continue to be the love. To appreciate and bask more fully in the genuine, concerned, healthy love that I have already found in many of those that envelope me. To not be so offended when loved ones don’t love me right.
In 2017, may I continue to remember that, in every point- no matter how empty or defeated or satisfied I feel, I am exactly where I need to be. That I never need to look outside of myself for peace, validation, encouragement, agreeance and unconditional love. 2016 has been beautiful and blessed, not because it was free from turmoil, personal and professional attacks, anxiety, challenges, doubts and sadness...but because it was filled with Grace, resilience, come-backs, health, wisdom and tough lessons. Because I was the best version of myself and I am only getting better, I'm grateful. I have loved hard and was intentional about it, even when I did not receive all the love that I thought I needed. I am still here. We are still here. And that my friend, is victory enough.
I am not intentionally looking for anything in 2017. Because goodness and Mercy surely *follows* me. I do not have to chase it. Seek it. I am content here.
May you know that now and in the New Year, that you are enough. #NewYearsEve #Reflection #SophiaSunshine
