2025: Light
Happy new year! I hope your holiday season was one to remember. Back in 2016 I started a blog called Sometime Saturday. The name I selected was a nod to the fact that I could only work on the blog in my spare time. On the weekends and a little in the evenings, after the work for my full-time job was complete. Since 2016 I would like to say that I’ve grown and have learned plenty of lessons. I’ve hit some major milestones but also had a few setbacks along the way. For those of you who have followed my journey and supported my dream of working in Fashion I want to say thank you. Liking a photo, following my account, using a link I post when you buy something I share. For any and all of it, thank you for the support.
Not let’s look ahead, shall we? In church on Sunday the pastor suggested we choose a word for 2025. I’ve seen others do this on social media. I can’t say that I’ve ever selected a word for myself. I certainly have never lived my life for an entire year with one word in mind. The pastor then asked us to walk to the front of the sanctuary and write down our word on this large sign. I stopped to think like anyone would in that moment asking myself should I participate? Which word would be best? Gosh, and I have to walk all the way to the front! I sit in the VERY back row of church these days. The walk to the front felt like a workout. Dont trip, stand up straight. These are the things I told myself as I walked by myself to the front to write down my word for 2025 in permanent marker: Light.
This year I want to feel lighter. I want to worry less. I also want to be a light to others. I’m not sure if this is natural as you age, but I feel like I used to be a brighter light. That light has dimmed over the years. This year I’m determined to turn up the dial a bit and get that brightness back. I’m not sure if you’ve made any resolutions for the new year or if you plan to settle on a word for the year. Either way, I pray that 2025 will be a year of improvement. A year filled with joy. For all of us.
Xx,
Angeline
