New years prompt change if only because the year is new. It makes me reflect on what I don't want to bring with me into the fresh clean slate of a brand new year. It's scary. It's like standing on a cliff and looking over the edge and seeing only layer upon layer of cloud banks. How far below is the ground? If I leave this toxic relationship, how do I know there will be another one that's any better? If I quit this job, how do I know I'll be able to find another one? If I...If I...If I...There are guarantee's are there? And that's scary. Do it anyway? Not impulsively or irrationally, or spur of the moment, but if this is something your gut tells you you need to do and has been telling you for quite a while that it needs to be done...then do it. Take that step...either a platform will appear under your feet, or you'll sprout wings.
I went to church today. A different kind of church because I've been feeling stuck around really unhealthy people, stuck in really unhealthy relationships and situations. That's what I took away from the sermon. I'm going to choose to believe it for me this year.
