I FINALLY have my word for 2025! It took a bit longer than I expected. I had a few in mind that I kept going back and forth until I realized that they were similar.
For 2025 I decided my word to be “Happiness”.
It has been rough for me these past few years. Taking care of an elderly mom and living with a sister with a mental disease takes a toll on me. Work has been good and bad. I struggled a lot in my personal and professional life. I tried to be positive and happy but many times it was hard. There were many times that I felt resentful and unhappy. I know that no one is happy ALL OF THE TIME, but I was more unhappy than happy. I am tired of being unhappy.
There are many things I am happy about. I am healthy. I have a job. I have a place to live.
I want to be happier/find more happiness in life. I want to smile and laugh more. The other day I was watching “Good Times”. Anyone remember that show? I was laughing while watching it. I want to laugh more with my coworkers and my students. I want to laugh more with my family. I can do that if I can find more happiness in life and if I can be happier.
Below are the words I’ve had in the past.
The topic for next week – How to set realistic (running) resolutions? Feel free to write about this or any running-related topic. We hope you’ll link up with us!
