Going into the new year I think one thing I'm going to focus on is lightness.

For too long I've carried outdated systems, rituals, and ways of living that just no longer serve me. I can articulate the things I want, but implementing the system behind it is just as important, if not more than the words themselves.

This experience called life is not in vain, if you use it properly.

“We all know we're going to die; what's important is the kind of men and women we are in the face of this.” Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

The kind of person I want to be gives in abundance, and holds onto only what has meaning or sparks joy.

Lighten your mind, lighten your finances, lighten your home, lighten your life.
