A Month of Gratitude – Day 1 2025

It’s that time of year again where we all take some time to reflect and take stock of the year that has been. Those of you that have followed me for some time know that this is also when I take a moment to just say thanks for all my blessings. I hope you join me in doing the same.

This has been one of the most challenging years I have ever experienced at work. I successfully reapplied for my job. I got to not only keep my job but start with a new team. I underestimated how stressful it would all be. Once again my health markers took a knock but I did say my words for this year were health and wellness so I remained focused on my diet and exercise to help me get through it all. I am still here so I am very grateful for this. i am also grateful my new team and I have made it through and still have our jobs.

I had actually started the year reading and sharing Joel Osteen’s book “I Declare: 31 Promises to Speak over your Life” These declarations really helped me start the year on a positive note. Now that I think about it, I should end the year the same way. I highly recommend doing something similar. It helps start the day wrapped in your faith.

I will leave you with the above quote from Joel Osteen. A reminder that even though the year is nearing its end, there is a new year on the horizon filled with possibilities and possibly destined to be your best year yet.

Thanks for popping by.

Don’t forget to be amazing!🌼

β€œDance is the hidden language of the soul.” – Martha Graham

What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?

Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to be a dancer. I love how good moving to music makes me feel. I also love how carefree and creative it looks and feel. I can spend a ton of time on instagram watching videos dancers. They are so expressive and they always look like they are having the time of their lives. I did do ballet as a kid (and loved it!) but I really wanted to do contemporary dance.

So the job I would love to do for a day is to be a freestyle dancer. I would love to feel the bass pulsing through my body and directing my every move. I would dance to the remix of β€œI’m coming out” by Diana Ross. That song just lifts my vibrations. I would love to participate in a dance competition. I love the creative way in which the dancers in how they interpret the music. I love the attitude that they show while dancing. Most of all, the hype man and the crowds are such a vibe!

Dance is life!
