Affirmation: I Safely Say Goodbye to One Year and Look Forward to Another

The changing of the year often generates parties and excess. Instead of being careless, I choose to meet the New Year safely. I softly say goodbye to the year that is departing. I contemplate on all it brought me - good and bad - and choose to focus on the good. There are many accomplishments I am proud of in the past year.

Looking back at things that took place last year, I decide what I need for the New Year. I realize what to avoid and what I want to see more of in the upcoming months. I choose happiness, joy, and peace. These are all gifts I can bestow on myself. I consider their importance and value and vow to keep them in my life throughout the New Year.

Because I possess these gifts, I share them with others. I make the world better and brighter since I am happy to share what I know. I freely offer my happiness and joy to others. I present them peace with no strings attached. I get much satisfaction from encouraging others.

I serenely let go of one year as I greet the new one - with all it has to offer. The New Year will be full of sensational surprises. I understand my responses to challenges I will face in the year to come and shape my future. I choose to react with peace and harmony, even if I face seemingly impossible odds.

I let loose the past year and embrace the future.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. How can I enjoy the end-of-year celebration safely?
2. How can I make the New Year a great one?
3. Are there ways I can help and protect others as they move into the New Year?
