Thank you for this beautiful post Christine! I can miss that confidence in being "one million percent sure" too. I'm also trying to understand that life is about trying and living, even when we're not that sure. I love your intentions rather than resolutions and I wholeheartedly agree with them. Finding time to become more mindful and present, in both action and inaction, is something I want to cultivate this year too ๐๐ป
Thank you, Julia :) Uncertainty is a tough one. And yes, life is about living and it is what we are trying to 'make out of it'. Cultivating presence is a much needed intention, for seemingly soooo many people.
The sunflower emoji made me smile, by the way. Sunflowers have this kind of interesting place in my life, and last year, I was reminded of that connection all over again. I wrote about it here, in case you are curious: https://navigatinglifejournal.substack.com/p/on-being-moved-8
Wishing you so joy and mindfulness as you navigate this year ๐ป
Oh, I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you so much for recommending that post. "When times are tough, let's go to the moon and pick sunflowers", incredible quote. I hope it's okay if I steal it and say it to whoever listens to me ๐ I have a pure fascination for sunflowers and they have a special place in my heart too.
Thank you! I'm wishing you joy and mindfulness throughout this year too, many hugs ๐ค

Absolutely! I think my dad would have appreciated it being used more and I certainly do as well ๐ป
