In 2014...
I hope you can finally make that big leap you’ve been wanting to make. I hope you eat pizza whenever you want to—without feeling guilty about it. I hope you’ll go to the dermatologist and the dentist. I hope you get the courage to stand up for yourself when you’re being taken advantage of. I hope you don’t get stuck in the rain without an umbrella. But if you do, I hope you can laugh about it. I hope you drink your beverages out of mason jars without any shame. I hope you move into headstand (or whatever inversion you’re working on) with strength and ease. I hope you say no as many times as you need to. I hope you say yes even when you might be scared of the outcome. I hope you’ll adopt a pet. I hope you catch the plane, the bus, the train, the taxi. I hope that every once in a while, you'll go to bed without setting an alarm. I hope you’ll learn a new skill. I hope you snuggle more than you did in 2013. I hope you turn off your phone every once in a while. {Yes, I said “turn off!!!” Gasp!} I hope you’ll say “whatevs”, “OMG,” “bee-tee-dubs,” or whatever words make you happy, without worrying about being judged. I hope you'll floss {almost} every night. I hope you go to the beach and play in the waves. I hope you can stop worrying about money, status, clothing, or appearance—just long enough to see how little these things matter. I hope you recycle. I hope your hairband doesn’t break when you don’t have another one available. But if it does, I hope you can let your hair down--let it fall in your face, blow in the wind, get in your eyes--and be okay with it. Wishing you a wonderful 2014 full of laughter, growth, opportunity, and mindfulness!

I love this! And two things: 1) Right before reading this, I grabbed a cold piece of pizza from the fridge for breakfast. 2) I was also drinking my mason jar full of water. I guess I'm already reaching my full 2014 potential! :) xoxo
