We have arrived at the end of the year and are being moved unceremoniously into the next. We have no choice in the matter – we are pushed forward by time – away from the past and into the future. For some, they can’t wait until the year is over. For others it’s been the best year of their life.
Entering a new year is always a good time to reset – to clean the closet of our heart and mind and decide how we want to live the next year differently. For so many, instead of living life, life lives
