One of the best parts of this holiday season was the gift of time, which I used to contemplate the start of a new year, and the start of a new decade. Or is it?

My reflections landed me here…

When does the next decase begin, anyway? Is it now or a year from now?

The punchline:  TIME IS AN ILLUSION.

Regardless of when the next year or next decade starts, I delighted in the opportunity to reflect on the past 365 days: the joys, challenges, loss, growth and fruits of my labour. I also took time to set my sights on and get excited about refreshed goals and intentions. It felt good and I have a sense of clarity about the year to come.

Even more important than when this reflection happens is that it does.

The take away: anytime is a good time to look back and then look forward for the purpose of bringing you more of what you want.

For me, I set my intentions for 2020 to be about renewal, acceptance, love, freedom and joy.

And, remembering that anytime is a good time.

May your next 366 days bring more love, learning, joy and connection.
