Instead of watching 2015 end (which we still did, unintentionally) we woke up early to see the start of 2016, with a beautiful view and coffee in hand.
It's so interesting that this happens everyday, and yet we pick one day and mark it as more significant. Today at 8:04am we didn't only begin a new day, but an entire new year. I'm really looking forward to 2016.
Up until recently, life - at least for me - has been measured by school. We spend our lives focused on the future, on goals that someday we will reach. Achieving good grades in high school recommends you to a good college so that you can get a degree and enter the job field you're interested in.
But we haven't been coached in what to do once we reach our goals. Since graduating college, it's been difficult to slow down. While I will always have goals, my current goal is to become comfortable living in the moment. I can't believe I'm finally reaching my goals I've had for years, but I'm going to start enjoying.
So let's enjoy the year, but even more, let's enjoy the day. Don't forget to explore and keep creating new dreams to chase.
