Morning my lovelies!
Are you making big plans to ring in the new year? Reflecting on the past? Maybe making a long list of resolutions?
Personally, I'm not big on resolutions. I don't think because of the date has changed that I'm magically going to change my ways, but I do think it's a good time reflect and reevaluate.
Starting a new year is like starting a new book... opening the cover and seeing a fresh page to continue your story. We don't know what will happen next... but we will keep turning the pages and welcome the twists and turns as they come. In the end, we will smile, close the book, and start another, not forgetting the past, not dwelling in it, but accepting it as it was, and moving forward with more knowledge than we had before.
It wouldn't be a New Year's post without a list, and I admit I do have a few little goals that I will keep in mind as we start the new year...
To work hard, save our money, and buy a house.
To finish school and start working in careers that make us happy.
To unleash fear and go after my dreams full force.
To enjoy the moments and not let them pass us by.
To take good care of our health and home.
To show love towards each other every single day.
It also wouldn't be a proper Friday post without a little New Year's Eve fashion fancies...
Vintage Crystal Crown Bottle, $24, OPI in Glitzerland, $8.50
Here's to a beautiful year ahead...
full of love, success, and happiness.
*Cheers!*

Even though it's just a day like any other, I still find that it's nice to be reminded to re-evaluate things and try something with fresh, new invigoration. It's nice to have a little external push every now and then!
