                                            Move into this next calendar year not with lofty expectations, but with gentle tenacity— the kind that will help you hold fast even in storms that won’t let up. Do something every day that makes you feel more human. Put your energy where it will do the most good right now. Let your community help you when you stumble, and help them when they do. Step into the new year not with resolve to be your best self, but with acceptance: that imperfect practice is the way forward.

                                        Taking inventory at the end of the year can be an illuminating exercise. You reflect on what you wanted vs what actually happened. You think about what went well and what didn’t. You celebrate the wins and lament the losses. You try not to spend too much time lamenting the losses and remind yourself that celebrating is okay even when some things from the year you’d prefer to leave behind are going to have to come with you into the new one. You ask yourself what you want as you move forward and try not to be afraid of what comes up when you do.
