Happy 2022!! I can’t believe it!!

Last night, I welcomed the Sabbath and New Year while sipping some sparkling apple cider and enjoying a late night candle-lit meal after finishing a shift at the hospital. I recalled some memories of being at home in WV surrounded with friends and family laughing with our New Year hats on and party blow horns. This moment was such a big shift from the happy times that warmed my heart lol!

One huge lesson I have learned over 2021 friends that I want to share with all of you is that we have to enjoy each precious moment, even if it is a new season in our lives that looks different from the past. I always gain so much wisdom from my mom who said, “if we stay in the past we will miss the gift of the present moment.”

What is so beautiful is that we have the opportunity to create new memories and traditions that embrace our new season of life.

I like you, miss many people who are no longer here and memories of the past, but I choose to be joyful in this present precious moment. We all have so much to be grateful for: people that are still here that we love, health, opportunities to share hope with the world, and most importantly the present moment.

I invite you to be in the present moment today and with each new day this year will bring for it is precious!

Embrace this new season in your life with gratitude and joy!
