 By far Christmas is my favorite holiday! It has all of my three favorite things: Family, Food, and Fun! It’s also the time of year where I can obsess over glitter and no one judges me for it. I am in glitter heaven this time of year and I think I stay on a glitter ‘high” from November until after the New Year. This time of year is filled with so much love and giving hearts, and the cold just brings out the romance in everyone. It’s also the time of year where we get to reflect on all that we have accomplished in 2018 and what we look forward to accomplishing in 2019.

As I sit in the living room watching the flickers and sparks from the fireplace, I think about writing down some New Year’s resolutions. 10 minutes later, my paper is blank and I come up with nothing. Not because I can’t find anything that I want to work on in 2019, but because I realize that self-improvement for me is every day. To think of all that I want to change or do differently can easily bring me down a dark path that makes me think about all that I should've, would’ve, could’ve and didn’t. Has that ever happened to you? Well, to avoid going down that dark road, I decided to make a list of all that I have accomplished along with moments that have brought me genuine joy and love this year. Let me tell you, it was a pretty amazing year! I’ve given a lot, I’ve loved hard and learned a ton. So I decided to give my self challenges for the next year. Something that will bring me out of my comfort zone, make me vulnerable, teach me more lessons, and push me one step further to the women I am becoming. My challenge for 2019 is to open my heart to receive love, give love and be love. What are you challenging yourself with for 2019?
