Year gone by….

Posted on December 30, 2023December 31, 2023 by Sonali

And just like that another year has gone by. I look back at 2023 with a lot of gratitude for all that the universe has sent my way.  The year reminded me again of my favourite Dalai Lama saying when he was asked about the biggest misconception that humans have – they think they have time!

2023 showed me vulnerability and how life can be so fleeting. Avi and I both had health scares that further helped us put life in perspective and aligned our priorities. 

Some of what 2023 taught me:

  • Time is precious so spend it wisely and gift it to people who appreciate it. 
  • Energy is sacrosanct. Preserve it and surround yourself with positive energy. 
  • Peace is paramount. Pay any price for it. 
  • Health always should be number 1 priority. 
  • Everyone takes a different journey in life, so let’s not judge but let it be!
  • Spend money on experiences rather than things as memories are all we have.
  • I am happiest when I am surrounded by my family and close friends.

As I turn 50 next year and join the elite club, I am looking fwd to continuing my goals and journey in 2024. Here’s some snippets from 2023.
