Hello dear friends!
We are already on Friday, another week that is passing us by, and now with the next weekend without even realizing it we are almost in the middle of January. It's funny how we celebrated the new year so recently, was it recently or has it been a long time already? I don't know but days go by quickly and our New Year's resolutions and plans or our routine must already be underway.
And it seems that there is always a lot we want to do at the beginning of the year, but if we are realistic, the first days are not the best for a true start. Mainly because we are celebrating holidays, for example in my country, Spain, until the 6th is a holiday and with the weekend the start has come later.
Then it seems that yes, we put ourselves at the starting box and begin a real first week, it is not the first of the month but as if it were. Time flies by and we're not really sure if we've done what we thought...
They tell us that next Monday is Blue Monday, that is, the saddest day of the year and that definitely doesn't help, but it doesn't matter, we still have time, we have many days, weeks and months ahead of us.
Maybe it is better to take things differently, without being too rigid with dates and objectives because we and other circumstances are also out of our control, or perhaps it is smarter to schedule ourselves differently, without stressing ourselves with thousands of resolutions for the second. day of the year and start over progressively throughout all these days.
What's more, the true beginning goes beyond months and calendars, we can restart our plans and our own lives when we consider it, when we are ready and when we feel like it.
Sometimes our own personal situation and evolution do not combine well with the designated days of the year that we all usually think, in fact our year, our life or our path may have a new better beginning, any day, even an unexpected day.
We all have plans and projects to accomplish but not all of them take the same time nor can they all start at the same time and in the same way, everyone has their own rhythm and although it is true that this first month of the year is good for new beginnings, you never know when it can be really your real beginning...
Because the initiative to start or change or to know that now is the right time or that maybe now is better than not, that is our decision, we look around and we look ahead, at our goal and we go towards it. Any day can be good to start or to start over, because sometimes it doesn't have to be something new, it is possible that we want to change something from the roots, take a 180 degree turn or do things differently, there is always a moment if we want it and feel it.
So you don't have to feel pressure these days, nor all the burden of obligations, objectives and past results, you have to look forward, get excited about a new beginning full of interesting challenges and perhaps better habits, there are many things that cross our minds...... but for a moment we have to stop looking at that demanding calendar that turns the pages inexorably and simply enjoy all that beautiful path that lies ahead of us in life.
Happy journey.
