Most people are picking a word to kick off their New Year’s intention. I’m not choosing a word, but rather a decision. I want to continue returning home to myself.
After numbing, avoiding + faking who I was for so long, getting to know myself has been a pure, messy joy of a ride. Unlearning the old, embracing the new. Healing. Unraveling. Staying curious + open. Faithfully awaiting the next door God opens in my life, welcoming + walking through it.
I have decided.
These acts of self love are not easy for me. I used to berate + abuse any self mistakes, avoided asking (and receiving) help out of fear of being seen weak or incapable, and would sabotage any healthy relationship because the safety + security felt so uncomfortably foreign, it literally ached. And resting? That was only for the deserving, not I.
But not anymore. I have decided.
Tell me, did I miss any acts of self ❤️ you plan to lean into this year? What have YOU decided? Which on the list is a challenge for you?
