2019: The Year to HEAL

Happy last day of 2018. I can’t believe I’m even saying that. The last couple of months flew by for sure. I turned thirty-one and if time wants to slow down, that would be great. I wanted to recap 2018, and share which word I chose for 2019.

Last year, I chose the word “DREAMS” as my word of the year. I think I accomplished it pretty well. You can read more about last year’s word here!

I chose to take somewhat of a different approach to 2019. I have really been thinking a lot the past couple of weeks. The last 8-10 years of my life have been a whirlwind. I was in school for 10 years! I’ve lost my mom & my grandma in the past few years, and it’s definitely taken a toll. I miss them every single day. I’ve been taking care of a lot of people in my life, and I’ve decided that it’s time for me.

My word for 2019:

In no way do I want this to be a sad post at all, nor do I want it to come across as selfish. I want it to be a post that is positive and happy. I want to pour more into myself this year! I want to quit thinking so much about what others think or what makes others tick. Some ways I plan on doing that:

*Starting my mornings off with prayer

*Monday night devo with my friend

*Putting my phone down & be more present

*Staying home sometimes and just doing nothing

*Eating better + getting back to the gym

I just haven’t been myself lately. I am always the one who is laughing and happy, and I want to get back to that point! I have so so much to be thankful for, and I need to remember that more often.

I’ve made several new friends the last couple of months, and I want to grow those friendships and be around people that build me up. Let’s do this!

Tomorrow I’m going to recap all of my 2018 travels. Be sure to come back to see all of the beautiful places I had the privilege of seeing this year!

Thanks for reading & I can’t wait to see where 2019 takes me.

XO,

Rebekah
