Notes from the Publisher

January 19, 2020

Being that it's January 19th and well past the first of the year, I think it may be safe to make my resolutions.    

I have never really been one to make "New Years Resolutions" for a few reasons.  I am terrible at making decisions.  Anyone who knows me will absolutely agree.  Ordering food, buying a new shirt, picking a paint color, deciding whether to go to the mall or to the park - if it involves a decision, I will probably change mine at least two or three times.  

I also loathe committing to something just because someone says I should.  Throughout my teen years, I struggled with finding my identity and what made me happy.  It continued even into my early twenties because I always did what everyone else thought was good for me.  Turns out, they were usually wrong. 

But this year I want to try something different.  I would like to try doing things that don't make me comfortable.  

Wait, what did I just say???  Why on God's green earth would I do something like that?!

Well, because I think that pushing myself outside of my comfort zone is exactly what I need in my life.  My physical, social, spiritual, mental, and emotional health could all use a boost of energy.  I don't know what it looks like right now, but I want to make a sincere effort this year to change things up a bit.  If you'd like to join me, I'd be glad to have your company.  Just let me know what you're doing and I may change my mind to follow suit.   

Until next month...
