I guess I would wish for a lot of things but I have learned over the last year to be careful about what you wish for. Many of the things I wished for did come to be, yet I have learned that I need to be more focused on what it is that I real want, a good example.... wished my hubby would find a job, got wish but, he found a job that takes him out of town every week. There are other examples as well....wished I could do more independent consulting work......well I have started to do that but, maybe I should have wished to be more organized also, because come tax time I'm sure that I'll be having some anxiety about not having kept every receipt. I wished that I could be more independent than codependent in my relationship....okay so I have found that I like being independent and I now notice that when hubby does come home I am less patient with the fact that he feels like it should be all about him because he's been gone and to be honest it is nice feel like I don't have to take care of him all the time.
So, this year I will try to take my consulars advise and be more mindful. I will try to focus on what it is that really speaks to my heart. I will remember what my sister once told me "How can you hear what your heart wants, if you are never still long enough to listen to it."
I am excited to see what wonderful things the new year holds. I know that there will be joy, happiness and of course some challenges.
I think I'll just wish for the grace, strength, courage and wisdom to be able to live my life well and learn whatever lessons life has to offer.
