So much more.
It's been a long time since I posted something in this platform. Life has been busy lately that I never got a chance to write something. Well it is the year ender and I have a lot of feelings about it.
It was a year of highs and lows, a year of growth and a year of unlocking potential. Since the lockdown I have learned to appreciate life even more. I valued relationships and have taken a plunge to follow what my heart truly desires. Although things didn't always go my way but it was a humbling experience to fail and rise above it.
This year, I lost an uncle to Covid and it broke my heart. I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye to him but it also opened an opportunity for my family to come together and reconnect. Of course it was sad that we waited for something bad to happen for us to work on our relationship with one another but I felt like it somehow allowed me to reflect upon how short life is and every opportunity shouldn't be taken for granted.
Over the years, I was afraid of taking some risks. I was afraid to fail and not succeed. I was afraid to try new things because it may not work out and I will be very devastated of the results. But I look deeper into myself and decided to put that fear behind me and start living life as it should be. No matter which angle I look, risks will always be a part of my life and it is up to me as to how I handle it. That is why 2021 was a year of saying YES. It was the year where I pushed myself out of my comfort zone.
In 2021, I invested on my health. I maintained my line of communication with close friends and family. I revisited a painful experience of the past and learned to slowly get back to it (dancing-- this deserves another entry). I hiked Angel's landing which tested my physical strength. I entered the world of social selling to have a sustainable income. I gained new friendships which I'm grateful for. I got the 'Rona and by God's grace I was healed. I celebrated my 3rd year in Nashville. And most of all, I have learned to give myself grace.
As we enter a new year, I challenged myself to be INTENTIONAL in all aspects of my life. I choose a word of the year because it helps me bring focus and direction as to what I want to achieve. I want to be intentional with my finances, my marriage, my relationships, health and myself. I want to live purposefully and I want meaningful experiences that will allow me to grow as a wife, sister, friend and business owner.
So much cultivation &
So much more.

How did your year go? Whether 2021 was successful, not that great or you’ve spent it taking one day at a time, be proud of yourself. The last two years have been unpredictable and full of uncertainty, yet here you are. Make the best of what you can.
Blessed,
Charmaine
