It's a new year and I am welcoming it with robust excitement. I am entering into the last year of yet another decade and what lies ahead is something I am looking forward to. The best part is, I have no idea what lies ahead. I think this is the best part.
Every day is truly a gift. Don't roll your eyes, stay with me here for a minute. Not one single second of our life is "owed" to us - we don't deserve a damn thing and that includes the seconds and minutes of each day. Therefore, life and time are gifts. I think about people who don't make it to my age for one reason or another and how they did not get this gift of being 49. How they would have done anything for one more second or one more minute of their life. How they would have loved to see a another sunset, hug a loved one, eat their favorite dessert, laugh with their favorite friend or wake up in their comfy bed.
All of these things are priceless, daily gifts.
Most days I feel like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. It's the same exact thing each morning and it is so vanilla, but I have learned to check myself and not be an asshole. I am awake, I am alive and I am gifted a few more seconds or a few more minutes to enjoy this life and to strive to be the best version of myself.
Now go crush the day.
