this year, i will try to

1. focus on my mental wellbeing 

2020 was really bad and it wasn't because of covid - and i just felt very pressured and overwhelmed from all around

almost a year of unmet expectations + toxic work + social isolation + lack of self-care was not a fun time 

thankful for friends who supported and checked in on me 

i'm not out of the hole yet, but i haven't slipped further in so

it's ok to not be ok / it's not selfish to focus on yourself 

2. do more of what i like

on my commutes: read

on my weekends: bake bread 

dates: with myself, with friends, with family, with cats

others: caring more for the earth and people, journal/writing, tidy maybe

pick up new things (maybe): art, kayak, bowl

3. (be more open to) share

lol 24 years of living and i still struggle with communication

wasn't very fond of public speaking but i guess wcm comment on how my voice is nasally still pokes at me somedays

may 2021 be the year of sharing and speaking out 

please remember that there is value in your voice / be critical of what you hear
