“Passing the torch” I feel like I’ve come to the end of a journey in so many ways. There are so many things I’d love to leave behind, and so many others I’d love to forget. But there are so many memories and so many lessons learned. It feels like I am graduating from something, or like a phase has past, but the truth is, the only thing that is ending is the year. But doesn’t that count? Can’t I check that year off the list? I MADE IT! I SURVIVED! So maybe this segment of the race is over… and I get to pass the torch on to a new me. I can pass the torch on to a rejuvenated me… because tomorrow IS a new day, a new month, a new year and I DO get to start fresh. I can say goodbye to parts of me I’d love to leave behind and I will continue to carry the torch. I continue to fight the good fight and spread the good word. I will put love into everything I do and every single step I take with this torch in my hand will count. It will count for something and it will have meaning. Every thing I do with love will be noticed and felt and seen and remembered. I will share my light with everyone who needs it and together we will shine brighter. So take this torch from my hand… let it light your way. Open your eyes to a new day, a new year and a new you. Be the best new you you can be, and whatever you do, do it with love. Happy New Year family.
