If you tell the truth, you do not have to remember anything.
Mark Twain
Your Year of Living from the Real Thing. This is the year the distance closes between what you believe and what you say out loud, and the relief of that closing turns out to be enormous. A conversation you have been circling for months happens cleanly in November, and what comes after it is so much lighter than what came before. The courage that brought you here, to this version of your life, to these choices, does not stop at the door of this year. It walks in with you and finds new rooms to open. A piece of work or a relationship that once asked you to perform your values now simply asks you to live them. The difference is everything. Your conviction has always been the real engine. This year it gets to run without the costume.
