With the new year approaching, I've been doing a heavy load of thinking. Come 2019, a new chapter of my life is beginning. 

In 2019, I plan to make myself healthier & wealthier, but most of all, happier. I'm gonna take more walks to breathe in fresh air, study the beauty of the ocean & find peace in the simplicity of nature.

I'm letting go of all those who have already left me because holding on to lost love, in my opinion, would just be foolish, honestly.

I'm putting myself first & practicing the real art of self-love; which isn't just taking care of myself physically or emotionally, nor is it just taking care of myself mentally, but doing all of the above. 

Now I'm a respectful person, but I couldn't care less of what other people have to say about me. Their opinions can't control me & they most certainly will not break me. What I truly think of myself & how I truly feel about myself is what really matters, most importantly.

In the words of the late Tupac Amaru Shakur, ''I was given this world. I didn't make it.'' But I don't have to settle for only what I've been given. I've got dreams to make me & my family's lives as beautiful & as bright as we can imagine.

I am my biggest critic, fear & worst enemy, but I'm going to war with the self-sabotage & self-doubt in order to win my peace & defeat those sides of me.

I'm excited for the new year & I'm opening my arms to it & capturing it in a warm embrace. It's time for more growth, it's time to make more positive changes & it's time to positively change my mind frame.
