I agree

This decade was about letting go....marriage, relationships, home, son leaving home, pet passing, letting go of friendships and the passing of my mother, father, sister, aunt and uncle and some friends.

The next one is about receiving and a big leap in spiritual growth.

💚

🌟


Yes. I have finally accepted it. My dad my rock died, I faced the truth about my marrrage & that I was shattered, pulled myself out of the ashes and worked hard to be reborn, that we were destined to walk different paths, said goodbye to my home, and the good friends there who desperately wanted me to come back, took a challenge with a new direction in my career, trying to set myself up for retirement, grew with and apart from the Cap who we met when we both had soooo much baggage, and worked through our shit. I accepted I had a big part in his running away and learned to communicate & so did he. Regardless of where this takes me, it was so worth it! One kid on his own & another signed up for college next quarter & being responsible, fighting her battles and saving for a car.

Mama bear is feeling proud of the kiddos and free to figure out her life. I even did a whole bunch of appointments/tests to make sure I’m healthy in the last couple of months ( after what happened with my ex) to make sure I’m off & running for the rest of life finally! I finally truly chose me. ❤️

2019 was pure shit lol. And everything was in my head. Nothing was really wrong i just started worrying about things i never cared for. 2020 will be way more about work and loosing that 5lbs that annoys me all the time lol.


I’m working on the 28 pounds that I’ve gained in the last 8 years since my divorce.. it was slow and gradual and age is part of it and emotional eating. Anyway 1/3 gone. 18 to go! Not quitting this time 😁 somehow I’ve lost a little in December 😂🙃

For me 2019 seemed like shit, but actually facing the shit made me work through my shit! 🤪

Can I just say that I have learned to not expect anything anymore? Even for 2020?

I know you're trying to be optimistic here and mainly for building up to become better self.

But at the same time.. and sorry for everyone to read this, but I'm started to getting hate the idea of new year new life bullshit.

Perhaps this year I have been heartbroken big time this that it got me to the point of no expectation anymore. I no longer want to think of hope and expectation or starting to make a plan of new life.

What I have actually learned is to do it now or never and don't get hopes up of only words where the action mainly counts only.


In a way you’re right, you can’t expect great things for the coming year or you will be disappointed. However I have hope always 😁 what can I say I’m a Sag.. but really it’s about me working on myself step by step, and the things that crossed my place to find my way. I’m in a good place, feeling peaceful, and happy. Not because of a guy but with myself. I’m looking forward to what 2020 brings, there are multiple diffferent ways my road can go and I’m not expecting which it is. I am just enjoying the journey instead of letting hurt drag me down. I am free from what I let pull on me. So hell ya I’m looking forward to it!

I'm with you.

2019 was difficult.

Looking back, the odd years have not been good. 2015 was my health, 10 months in and out of hospitals.

2017 was cursed, both grandparents died, son got diagnosed t1d, beloved cat vanished, love of my life ghosted me after 7 years

2019 began with finding my son almost dead (t1d complications) , minutes after midnight.

I am looking forward to 2020.


Very interesting on odd years! Mine was more in clusters of years and a lot of working through in all years.

2019 wasn’t that bad for me, but then again I’ve come to a point in my life where I just finally have most of what I wanted. There are goals I want to meet, but I don’t ever look at the beginning of the year as a time to decide how my year is going to go anymore. Less expectations tends to lead to a better year for me. 😂 Mainly, my goal is always to look at the glass half full.

2014 was the absolute worst year of my life. Lots of changes that led me away from a lot of my norms. Which is why I am where I am right now.
