Prickly Pear Time
I have wanted to pick prickly pears since we moved here, and I just never have. But this year I made a pledge to myself to live slower with more intention which means doing the things I want to do and taking the time to do them. I haven't been being the best at this thus far.
I am trying to learn how to say no to things that do not serve me, so that I can open up to saying yes to the things that do serve me. It's about more than the prickly pears, although I do want those, and I want to try making some dishes with the napoles (the pads or green part of the cactus). It's about living in the moment a little more and spending more time present instead of on social media or worrying about the future or worrying about anything.
It's about being in nature and doing something that is rewarding that doesn't depend on other people. Part of my businesses always include social media, and it's easy to get distracted by likes and comments and engagement. But at the end of the day, even though being on social media is a requirement for being an aspiring author, do those things really matter? Or do the moments where I enjoy life most what really matters?
In 2025 I really want to focus my energy on things I love. And while I know it's impossible to love every single thing 100% of the time, I do think it's possible to build a beautiful life full of things I love.
