Slow Starts and Sweet Surprises
To be honest, it always takes me some extra time to warm up to the new year. What about you?
Luckily, I’ve learned that, if you bundle up well, go for a wander, and get curious, you may stumble on a nice surprise.
I sure did, thanks to this sweet Love Letter box I found in the little town of Norfolk, aka the “icebox of Connecticut.”
A note on the box invited people to “write a love letter to someone unknown and to take a note for yourself.”
Imagine my delight when I pulled out this message! –>>> “You are singular and spectacular!”
I mean, c’mon! How great is that?!
Did I keep the note?
Well, I wanted to. But in the end I decided to leave it for the next lucky person.
Because here’s the thing: Every one of us is singular and spectacular.
To be clear: “Every one” includes you.
Even if you haven’t chosen your word of the year, yet. Or ever.
Even if you’ve already bailed on your New Year’s resolutions.
And even if you still aren’t sure what to make of the year ahead and your goals for the year have yet to come into focus.
Trust that they will in time.
Meanwhile, repeat after me: “I am singular and spectacular!”
