Every year, on Epiphany Sunday, my church hands out stars that have words on them. These words are designed to give us direction for the new year. This year my star had one word that I could not have fit this year any better, “future.” And this year, I’m going to create the most amazing future that I can.
The Comfort Village
First, I’m diving headfirst into the future of The Comfort Village.
I have big plans for this website that you are on right now. And that starts with these articles. Consistent article releases and newsletters will be just the start of the big things that will come for The Comfort Village.
I hope if you are reading this right now, you will stick around with us to see all the great things that are to come!
Becoming Multilingual…Again
Back in the day, I was nearly fluent in Spanish. It was a language that I grew up with. Starting in Kindergarten and learning the word for ‘hamburger’ started what became an incredible ability to speak the language.
I remember conversing with a waitress at a restaurant who could not speak English. My mom sat across me with her mouth open wide. She was not expecting me to be able to talk with the waitress. I could tell she was so proud.
But as they say, “if you don’t use it, you lose it.” And that is precisely what happened. I lost it. Not all the essential words and phrases, but to be able to conjugate words and hold a conversation was beyond my capabilities.
So currently have a 52-day streak on Duolingo, and some of the things that I lost have started coming back to me. So by the beginning of 2021, I will be gifting myself the ability to hold a general conversation in Spanish.
Getting Healthier
An essential piece of a better future for myself is getting healthier. I have done a poor job in the last few years, giving myself the love that I deserve to move and eat with intention.
I owe it to my husband, to any future children that we have, my fur babies, my family, my friends, and most importantly…I owe myself a healthier future.
Excited for My Future
So those are just a couple things that I am doing for myself to create an amazing future for myself.
Feel free to leave any comments with your plans for bettering your future self!
Let’s go!
