Cheri's Connection Corner - What is YOUR WORD for 2025 and WHY?

Happy New Years Beautiful 50 Plus Community!

I know that sometimes we can look back at our year and think about all the things that were hard or we didn't do or we just wish for the calendar to flip at midnight.

A date flipping doesn't change us.

A mindset changing changes us.

Hope changes us.

Action changes us.

You see, even in the hard, you were strong.

You made it to today.

Even in the down parts, you were brave.

You made it to today.

Even in the moments when you didn't know what to do, you were creative.

You made it to today.

Even in the times when tears were shed, you were real. 

You made it to today.

Even in the moments of anger, you dealt.

You made it to today.

Imagine if you could look back at this year, and even if it was the worst year ever, and see where you were strong, powerful and brave!

You have it within you to do amazing things. Hard things. Brave things. Bold things.

You are kind.

You are brave.

You are strong.

You are wonderful.

You are courageous.

You are fearless.

You are insightful.

You are creative.

You are giving.

You are generous.

You are important.

You are forgiving.

You are unique.

You are tenacious.

You are loving.

You are worth fighting for.

This is your year. Your day, your month, your time.

But it is up to you.

Not a program, not a schedule, not an agenda.

You.

If you want 2025 to be amazing or freeing or redeeming or healing then you have within you the power to do the mental part. 

No one controls your mindest, only you. 

You were created to do amazing things. You can do this. 

I believe in you. 

Don't dismiss 2024 - learn from it.

Challenge yourself. 

Give yourself grace.

It wasn't perfect, but here you are, almost at the end. 

And breathe.

Each day matters, my friend.

And so do you.

If you could choose a WORD for 2025 WHAT would it be and WHY?

Think about a word that speaks to you and it doesn't have to be on the list. I will post mine in the comments.
