Well the New Year resolutions are made. 29 of them in totality. The phase to follow them has started. Before making them, I came across many articles focussing on "reinventing your life" or just "breaking the routine", not falling into a rut etc. But I beg to differ. This may be good for someone who has been "settled" into the same routine for say the last 5 or 10 years. For the people in their 30s, that itself is something most would not have experienced. Family, career, friends, settlement, stability...they all take time. And when we get it, we deserve some time to savour it. Life itself brings so many changes that no two months, let alone two years are alike. Yes, days can be similar! So why not cherish the stability when you get it. Yes, it's still good to try new stuff but every year need not be the year when you choose to change your entire life! Instead, sometimes it's just enough to have just a couple of challenging unique goals and a few more that just make you feel good. It's another day of normalcy that people long for when they run out of time. Don't take normalcy for granted. Here's how:
*Go to work, come home, have a cuppa with your family and watch that favourite TV show...without guilt.
*Spend some weekends just lazing about.
*Savour that familiarity of environment both when you go to work and when come back.
*Value meeting the same set of people everyday. They are all currently a part of your life to some extend.
*Value your family and their familiar habits.
*Cherish good health.
*Cherish your children....they will never remain the same.
*Cherish the friends you make in all phases of life.
* Cherish all impactful conversations and discussions.
*Cherish your normal moments because one never knows when they give way to trying times. What man proposes, God disposes.
Here's to a year of stability!
