one of those years ...

A writer friends shared a blogpost where she adapted questions from the New York Times to sum up the past year. I found her post inspirational and have borrowed her questions for my own reflective exercise.  Here goes. 

Question 1. What I have learned in the past year? 

That I have the power within me, and just need the courage to use it. 


Question 2. When did I feel the most carefree? 

Riding my bike, not being in a hurry, and picking saskatoon berries along the way.  



Question 3. What gave me energy and inspiration? 

The garden. Nurturing it and letting it nurture me back. 


Question 4. What habit had a positive effect? 

My reading habit feeds my curiousity and keeps me inspired to write my own stories.


Question 5. What did I do this year that I thought was almost impossible? 

I supported (ongoing) a dear family member through some really difficult issues which deepened my own faith and reminded me that if we don’t look after ourselves, we can’t support anyone else.


Yes, 2025 was a challenging year and I’m hoping for an easier go in 2026. But no matter, 2025 has empowered me to keep my chin up, ride my bike slow, read and to be kind. We're all trying our best!
