New Year: This is for me

I have not blogged in quite some time, in fact I had forgotten about this blog. As I opened this up memories flooded me. Today I start keeping a journal for my kids to read one day, for their children to read. Today I start a keepsake of words I feel, moments I've had and memories I want to tuck away for days I can't remember. Today starts a new time in my life. 

 Today is January 1, 2017. A new start. A new year. I've decided that this year I will not have "resolutions" I will have a word(s) or phrases or quotes. 

 This year I'm choose to see LIGHT (this will be discussed at a later time). I choose to have QUIET. I choose to see BLESSINGS. I choose JOY this year. I choose to not let others actions affect my emotions. I choose to find me. I choose to find God everyday, in the smallest of places. I choose to cut negativity out of my life, even if it is people. I choose to be happy.
