What are your goals for the new year? 3 months, 2 weeks ago This Year, I Promise
Astrida HaraThis year, I promise myself.
to not rely on someone to make the world better.
Rather, I will count on me,
to fill my role better on Earth.This year,
I may not fulfill some hope in myself.
But I will do justice to my power.
I may not make much money.
But I will make more meaning.
I may have a lot of free time.
But I won’t waste any minute.For all the challenges,
the struggles,
the injustices,
the unwanted things that may happen to me this year,
I will face those bravely.I will not fear any failure.
Because I can learn from them.
I will drink to my success,
Because I will deserve them.I will not promise to be less sad.
But I promise I will be less mad.
I will not promise I will smile more.
But I promise I will be grateful more.This year, I will write many books,
even though no one believes in me.
I will type and thrive,
cause I believe in myself.Voting is closed
I appreciate the authenticity and accountability!

Astrida!! You’re not the only one who believes in you. I believe in you too! This piece is brilliantly written! It’s insightful, deep, and real. This line hit me hard, ” I will do justice to my power.
I may not make much money.
But I will make more meaning.”
Meaning is what life is all about and I can’t wait to see all the meaningful things you do this year. Your writing is amazing, but you don’t need me or anyone else to validate you or your writing. The work speaks for itself. Keep doing you. The world is better for it. Thank you for sharing and thank you for being part of The Unsealed family <3 Lauren
