Hello!
This.
This is the goal I have set for this new year. The thing you are reading right now. This
Blog. I'm excited (to start something new!), and scared (that I won't keep it up), but here is to doing a thing. The meaningful, fulfilling, scary, brave thing. Wish me luck!
While you all are making your lists of meaningful, fulfilling, scary, brave things to do this year let me leave you with some of my favorite New Year's advice from one of my favorite authors.
"I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.
Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're Doing Something.
So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.
Whatever it is you're scared of doing, Do it.
Make your mistakes, next year and forever.”
― Neil Gaiman
