Hey everyone! I hope you’re all keeping safe and healthy. I can’t believe it’s the end of the year! I’m looking forward to 2021. I am in no way expecting all our problems to disappear but there is something so hopeful about a fresh new year. 2020 has taken so much away from us. It’s hard to think that this is my first Christmas without my mom, without my wonderful Godmother and without the others we have lost. As a family, this festive season is probably going to be the saddest time. I know for me, it will be the hardest Christmas I will ever face. That said, I do welcome 2021, I have hope that it will be a year of growth and success for me. I am looking forward to achieving some goals and I really look forward to change.
My momma wanted the best for me, she wanted me to thrive and I’m going to make the next year of my life a thriving one.
I have been painting a lot, I have been doodling, I have been sketching and I’ve been doing a lot of yoga. My go to comforts have been helping me immensely. Music has been a saving grace for me too. I have been focusing most of my time on my writing. I did not win Nanowrimo this year but I am proud of what I achieved. My current projects are coming along nicely. The fantasy novel I’m working on is more of a closure project for me (if that makes sense) and I’m going in with my second round of edits for my Contemporary. All in all creatively, I’ve forced myself through the pain.
I am grateful for all the practices that bring me comfort. I crave people and physical comfort, I miss the act of holding someone’s hand. I miss having face to face conversations but I know, in my heart that we just need to give this situation time and grace. We will be okay.
I am sending you all love and good vibes!
Until next time,
Namaste.

Hi, I read today’s blog, it’s cool, currently I’m trying to get back into mindfulness to help me with my bipolar etc so I found it encouraging, thankfully my creativity helps too
Always feel free to send in writing or art, I’m big on supporting others which in turn supports others etc..
We can link it to your blog if you’re interested, food for thought, sorry to hear of your losses, time is a healer but I know it’s very tough
I hope you enjoyed the playlist, best wishes @beelzebubabble @MusiMicro ~ Craig

Hi there, I’m so glad you found it encouraging! Mental health is so important. I’m actually suffering from PTSD at the moment, and music seems to ease me out of the flashbacks, that’s why I asked for recommendations. I’m really enjoying the playlist! Thank you so much. 😊
And thank you for the offer! I’ll definitely check the site out.
