Here we are down to last few minutes of 2017. Another chapter of the novel of our lives finished, but how has it ended? Is it ending with you in a hurry to start the next chapter of your life to see what happens next? Have the events that took place left you with the excitement of upcoming adventure or are you resigned to life being just the same old routine? Your life is an unfinished novel, a work of non-fiction but filled with dreams that may only ever be fiction but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Will the next chapter of your life be written in pen, using ink that boldly states that you are ready to take a step to go forward or will it be in pencil, able to be erased and for you to step backward, stuck in the “maybe someday” rut? The next chapter of your life, titled 2018, could be a wonderful one, but you have to be willing to take that step and do something you have always wanted to do.
What would you like to do or see or even just attempt in 2018? Maybe it’s even just a book you want to read or something you want to learn. You don’t have to start with something big, but figure out what is on your “some day” list and put it on your “today” list! Today doesn’t have to literally mean today but sometime during 2018.
Be willing to open a door in 2018 and see what awaits you. HAPPY NEW YEAR 2018!
I didn’t quite get this published before 2018 arrived!
Something I’ve wanted to do for a number of years is visit my high school girlfriend who lives in Colorado. She and her family have traveled to Maine to see us a couple times over the years. I wrote on her Christmas card that I am planning a visit this coming summer. She was excited to hear that and so am I!
That is great! Don’t you love adventures? I’m glad you set a time period and told your friend because that is one of the first steps to make sure things happen.
