Off to a different 2021!

The last hours of 2020 are here…a year has gone by so fast, a year that has been far away from being normal. A year that seemed endless at times.

For me personally it was a year full of change.

Being out of a stressful job and trying to find comfort after a hard 2019. On the last day of the year I can reflect and look back. It wasn’t easy but most of the time I am fine. Being without something to do is not my piece of cake so I started a 200 hour yoga teacher training. A journey close to my heart which gave me lots.

I learned, I studied, I looked within, and in the end I got my certificate and couldn’t be more proud.

There are still lessons to follow, Ayurveda, a whole new and interesting field, yin yoga, what I need most during the „not-so-good“ times and who knows what else.

Of course there is Covid and it gave me some really bad anxiety attacks but it also has shown me what a strong bond we have in our marriage, how wonderful my family is. It has been tough and still is, the toughest for me indeed is to see what happens to humanity. There are unfortunately so many out there not „believing“ in a pandemic that I start to wonder where such a misconception comes from? The ignorance scares me more than the virus itself. We are sticking to the rules since day one, being cautious and staying away from others sometimes more than anyone asks for. We kept our son at home from March until September and that was the most intense family time since he’s been born.

Somehow Covid is a gift for us. Not that I adore a virus but being able to see the good in the bad is what keeps us going.

Shift your focus and you’ll find comfort in the darkness.

We are curious to see what the new year brings – we will go through a lot of changes, start new jobs, which will be exciting and hopefully without many disappointments. We are good in what we do, so bring it on 2021. And until then let’s enjoy that we are who we are, with all our imperfections and flaws, we are not perfect but so isn’t anyone else.

We are alive, we love, we fight, we laugh and we cry – all belongs to the big circle of what life is.

Off to a different 2021!

There is no guarantee that it will be better but be assured it will be different. We can make it different because we have it in our own hands.

Be the change you want to see.

Live the peace you want to see.

The sun will set one last time in 2020 and ahead are 365 new sunrises, a whole new year of making it better.

Let’s all focus on the good and all will be fine.

Get over safe and sound.

Off to the new and let go of 2020.
