Sometimes we can focus more on life's challenges than life's good work. I thought about this today as I thought about the actions that improved my life in the past year.
New car
After years of driving an old car that was falling apart, I bought a good used car and that has considerably improved my life because I feel comfortable driving to places where I want to be. I took the time to do the research which resulted in an affordable car that runs well.
Home improvement
We greatly simplified and updated our home to make it more warm and welcoming. It's a lot easier to welcome guests now that we've completed these updates. There's still more to do, and we'll continue down this path.
Positive schedule
Via the consult of many, I've been able to craft a healthy, positive schedule. This is good.
Good relations
Via lots of thought, reading, and reflection, I've revitalized a number of relations in new and positive ways. There's a lot to consider in this realm and I'm looking forward to the continued journey.
Fun
We've found many positive ways to inject fun into our family schedule--this brings the light to life.
In the next year, I want to continue these pursuits and perhaps add more community involvement too. Onward.
