The 2020 Jar of Thoughts

We all get bombarded with quotes and positivity messages at the turn of a new year. Where in my eyes, December 31 and January 1 are days just like any other day, one quote I got to read a couple of times within the 24 hours, not intentionally mind you, got me thinking... It read: "Today is the first blank page of a 366 page book. Write a good one". Hmm. Stumbling upon the same quote several times within 24 hours sounded to me like too much of a coincidence.

And so, I started wondering what initiative could I start to make a proper use of those simple words. Writing a book could be an option. However, not for this year. It is still on top of the bucket list of things I want to do, just not yet. So how about a page that is NOT going to be another collection of positive thoughts? This Jar, since I found the idea of a jar cute and in a way resembling to the jar I use to collect wine bottle corks, will simply be a selection of thoughts, events, maybe some feelings too that will cross my path during 2020. If you know me a bit, you certainly have heard me say: "I don't like even numbers". I really don't. And 2020 is too much of one. I'm surely not going to spend it ranting every day. I promise to keep it to one idea a day. Well mostly that is. Curious to find out more?

UPDATE: Dec. 31, 2020 This year has turned out to be far more challenging and interesting year for me, on all levels. The only even thing about it was ... the number. In the end, I didn't keep my goal of publishing small writings in the Jar of Thoughts on a daily basis. I did my best to keep the "How Can I Help You Campaign" going on my personal FB page and I am currently thinking of ways to connect all those ideas. Stay tuned!
