It is a beutiful experience to slow down, enjoy nature, cut down screen time (news, social media, etc), and just chill. Enjoy the fresh air of a cool morning, birds chirping, and reduced city noise.

Slowing down is good.

I feel that I rush through life trying to accomplish objectives and achieve some targets all the time. Goals are good. But enjoying life and enjoying the present are also good.

I thank God for all that I have accomplished this year. Could not have done them on my own strength; only by the grace of God. I had a major failure, too, this year; it was a good lesson and self-discovery. More importantly, it was God's way of helping me understand his plan.

I am grateful for this year. And I look forward to what God will do next year.
