You were wild once. Don’t let them tame you. ~Isidore Duncun
Resist allowing whatever you are in the midst of to tame you. Make wishes for relief, redemption — or for new perspectives on your dailies and your want-to’s.
Make wishes because wishes feel less overwhelming than goals and to-do’s; wishes are easier to make because makin’ ‘em is sparkly. Because wishes are granted. 
It is what it is. Whatever {it} is — that causes you pain or distraction — will not go away by giving in to {it}, denying or avoiding {it}. Furthermore, not dealing with {it} alters your choices over time.
Time is the longest distance between two places. ~Tennessee Williams
If you need more time to heal, to process a plan or to regain your focus — allow for as much time as you need.
Time is the wisest counselor of all. ~Pericles
But don’t wait too long. Maintain the momentum of your wish … Because what is within your wish, holds the energy to accomplish it.

What a post!! Thank you for this sweet friend. The encouragement to make wishes instead of goals. Inspiring. Today I’m wishing for more “present(ness)” To be here and all here with my children and in all that I do. I woke up with the curse of comparison on my heart, feeling not so good at motherhood. Hmm perhaps I should wish for a glass half full train of thoughts.

YES.
Such wisdom and truth here.
It’s going to be a good year. I can feel it way deep.

Heather: My brave and courageous warrior-friend, how about a shower of self-care and acceptance. You are an amazing woman — in all the aspects of your life-choices. What we feel about ourselves rarely has to do with reality, and more to do with perspective and the amount of quiet and rest we are allowing ourselves. This is a very busy time for you … Abide and receive a generous measure of Grace. ♥
Elora: YOU make me brave! Healing occurs in waves … Literally.
Some of ‘em overwhelm you … Some carry you gently to the next shoreline. Take as much time as you need, Braveheart. ♥
Rain: It is definitely gonna a be a good year! \o/ I feel it, too. And I am completely assured that when Grace feels thin and translucent … the love of (commune)ity will embrace us. ♥
