I took this picture on my favorite day of January, the 11th. There is still some light at 5, now, perhaps its gotten a little later, I keep meaning and then forgetting to pay attention. How excited I am for this year to continue unfolding.

the frenzy of it all, to be tardy by just a few seconds. a shared oopsy shrug. a room full of laughter and love for the new year anyway. ringing up a friend, kissing loved ones on their cheeks. first hugs of the year. two flutes of champagne. scattered fireworks in the neighborhood. no frown on anybody's faces. tonight, everything is warm and hopeful and light. we are so lucky to have this new day, this new life. wishing you all a beautiful and kind 2025.

I have a very strong desire for control over every aspect of my life and I’ve never been able to roll with things. Lately I’m trying to let go of this so I can participate in my ‘friendships’, which I have really been neglecting in recent years. Today a friend texted and asked me to go to the farmers market with her. At first I felt scared (lol) and inclined to ignore the message but I decided instead I would agree to go, and within 5 minutes I was in her car with her. It was a total blur and I was anxious out of my mind but I felt very grateful to spend time with someone I love. I’m terrible at conversing but even just to stand beside her was nice. We hugged before parting ways. I am glad that I did this.

If it irritates you to see people being negative, you know thats not something you yourself want to be. Dwell on why negativity bothers you. I‘d guess it has something to do with an innate knowledge that we all deserve kindness. Typically super negative people feel horribly about themselves, they have no other reason to say the things they do. It’s the type of person that tends to annoy me as well but when I think about that it makes me really sad for them, and then it feels easier to be compassionate. Anger releases dopamine. If you’re sad all the time, it feels better to get angry for a while. They’re struggling and desperately trying to make themselves feel better. We all need each others love.

The other album I’ve been super into the past few days :-D so gorgeous. I’d never heard of this band before and I still haven’t heard their other albums but I feel inclined to listen. They have a really nice sound and the vocalists are both (I think it’s just two?) wonderfully talented. Some of the songs make me want to cry some of them make me want to dance
