2022 Reflection

Psalm 32 : 8

I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: i will guide thee with mine eye.

As I reflect on my 2022, the year has been all about learning. I had new experiences that showed me how big the world is outside my own world. It was the biggest comeback to the setback of 2019 until 2021. Every day, I am grateful to still be meeting in my journey new people who share life nuggets. I gained new relationships, yet sadly lost some too. God as always, has been my great Teacher. He said, “Just trust me, and I will show you how I can change your life.” Trusting is not so easy. As I have years of doubting and doing things on my own, relying on myself that I need to unlearn. Until now, I have to consciously keep the faith and win the battle over the negative whispers that keeps saying “I cannot do it”, the “what ifs”, the “nope, not gonna happen”. But when I do completely trust and just say, “Yes!”, I am brought to experiences, places I never imagined I would be. I am still amazed how I am where I am now, and what I have achieved in just a matter of 1 year! God taught me to choose wisely the people who will be on my court cheering for me, to say “No” when a relationship or a situation does not do me any good. To be a cheerful giver as well as a cheerful receiver. That the Giver is the gift. That it is not that I love Him that I am blessed but that He loved me first. That I cannot lose what is mine by divine right. If I do lose something, something bigger and better is to come for me. That I should be grateful for what I ask for even if I have not received it yet. That even if people are not, if situations are not, I should choose to still be kind. That 1% improvement is still an improvement and compounded daily will give me the improvement and good habits I want to achieve. 🤎 To all that are still with me, cheering for me, know that I am 100% all in for you too.

How was 2022 for you? What are your 2022 life lessons? Merry Christmas and happy 2023, loves! 🤎
