Seattle Hot Spring Boat ♨️ Amidst the Night and Snow

🌟On the last day of 2024, after soaking in a Hot Tub Boat, I drove for almost three hours into the mountains alone (Cave B Ridge is truly breathtaking). My goal for the year was to regain a sense of control over my life, and to some extent, I achieved it: the first step to regaining control is realizing what can and cannot be controlled, and finding the switch that initiates change. It might happen in an instant. Although I’m still navigating my path, I have a clearer understanding of myself and my life’s goals. 🌟As I grow older, I become more aware that some “goals” are not chosen autonomously, but are shaped and educated by life experiences and the surrounding environment. As my knowledge and abilities expand, so do the boundaries of my choices. It takes wisdom and courage to distinguish between my real needs and wants. This year, I’ve visited some places, met some people, and seen some relationships more clearly. In 2025, I hope to achieve further self-coherence; living without it is not an option for me (I see some people who don’t need it, but I do). A haphazard life is no life at all. In the end, I hope to reach a point where: 🌟I feel complete, full. I don’t need anything to fulfill me or fill me up, to meet people not as potential sources of love or happiness, just for sharing our being. 🌟In fact, each of us already has the power to step out of the game; what we might lack is just a bit of courage. #JournalingSue #2025 #Seattle
