Follow the path that is best for you..!

I keep thinking about this quote; it's something like: "What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from." At home with my family for the first extended period of time that I can remember in the last three years, I look into the mirror and realize that I am ready to make an "end," one that will give me a new and healthy beginning. I am one of dozens of people who tried to meet a weight loss goal this year and fell short. I have spent this holiday vacation time asking myself
"why" (not in a whiny voice!) in an honest search of an answer--one that will help me to meet and maintain my goals in the new year.
I've read over some of my blogs, I've thought about the challenges I have faced this year. And the answer is not so simple. I cannot point to one specific thing that prevented me from achieving my goal, but I am beginning to see a general theme. I would say that for many years, I have shied away from decision-making and healthy risk-taking in my life, preferring instead to let others' desires and decisions guide my choices, instead of thinking about what I really want.

Finding a new beginning for myself requires me to make some decisions and put an end to the relationships in my life. No matter how comforting it may be to hide in these relationships, I'll never move forward, I'll never grow, if I stay planted where I am. So for this new year, my one and only resolution is to be faithful to my own heart and follow the path that is best for me.

Wishing you all happy new year..!

Say Cheese,
