Always stay humble and kind. That doesn’t mean that you let others violate your personal boundaries. Kindly, I will say no. Kindly I walk away from negativity. Humble and staying true to myself.

When in doubt, repeat after me. We didn’t learn these true comments in school.

You know that since a small girl, I always felt for the underdog. I’d be the first to invite someone who was alone in the lunchroom to sit with me or the one who would go play with the kid on the playground that no one would play with. Any kid that looked different or didn’t have much to wear to school or even the girl that all my classmates would make fun of because she didn’t smell very good. I would still sit by her and be nice. As I got older and entered high school, I was treated very badly by a group of girls. One day I was in “the group”and the next day, for no reason at all, I would suddenly be ignored by for all of them sometimes for months. Yes, it hurt like hell. So, I would revert back to being a little kid again and look for the girls that others were mean to and make them my friends. Looking back on it now, I am grateful to the group of girls that were so hurtful to me. They taught me the meaning of true empathy, kindness and compassion for others. You see, I never ever want anyone to feel invisible if I can help it. Psychology says the greatest abuse of all isn’t physical, mental or emotional abuse, it is when someone gives you the silent treatment. It is says you aren’t worth anything and do not even exist. It is the most controlling abuse of all.

This year, I am rediscovering joy, peace, and courage, and reconnecting with my inner spark, which persists even when obscured, and manifests both deeply within me and pervasively in my surroundings.

In 2026, disregard any directives regarding your course of action from individuals who haven't experienced your personal journey. Your path is distinct, and only you can navigate it. Go forwards or backwards, it’s on your time. When I get stuck on my path, I always just go right until I find my path again and again.

Did you know that a sign of good mental health, is the ability to be flexible in our lives. So, with that said, that goes for New Year’s resolutions also. If you find that you have made your resolutions too hard for you, change them to work better for you. Or decide to make a new one altogether. We have the right to change our minds. That is flexibility working for you. Personally, I have stopped making New Year’s resolutions altogether. I make them any day I want. If I find that I am not being realistic, then tweaking them or dropping them altogether is a sign of me being flexible, not a failure. Be kind and patient with yourself and you will attract people who are kind and patient with you too. Everyday is New Year’s Day for me.

As we begin a new year, it's essential to prioritize self-empowerment and maintain a positive environment by distancing oneself from criticism and negativity. You do you regardless of what anyone else says.

The last day of 2025 was another reminder for me. If someone wants to find something wrong with you, no matter what you do, they will find it regardless. Guard your peace. That is just life. I do my best and the rest is out of my hands. Perfection is really hard on others and more importantly, it’s being really hard on yourself. Happy New Year to all. Thank you for your kindness throughout this year.
