This was written for the Enero Edition of Conexion. A multilingual paper sharing the news of Florida's panhandle, some of Alabama and Georgia, while also giving insights on varied topics. Babushka is grateful they let her take her time returning to writing for them. It took awhile, but one always returns to familia.
Hola, Hola, Hola Beautifuls!
It’s been awhile hasn’t it? Babushka’s been busy chasing dreams and daily dances. Looking back, it wasn’t a bad year, pero this one, the plan is for pleasure. In the malo and lo bueno, to look for the pleasure of being alive, of being here to feel, learn, love, live. And this dear ones is the tarea from now on. Moments are memories to be vivido and cherished. Let’s be present, porque that truly is our gift de la vida.
2025 is the year to slow down on the “gotta do’s” and speed up on the wanna do’s. The more time passes, the more BB realizes the less of it she has. So, what are your wishes for this year? Not goals, not gotta do’s, but the wishes? How about we strive for those Beautifuls? Let’s strive for our wishes, our bucket lists. A seguir los sueños, Vivir la Vida. Viviendo, no corriendo. Let’s let go of the little things, that at the end, really don’t matter. The world will continue to revolve, whether you’re running on it or not. So truly, what is your ,“gonna do one day” when I get older, when I have more money, when I have more time? Beautifuls, we never know how much time. Cuando te tocó, te tocó.

So make sure you touch your heart, and try to follow it more often this year.
Wishing all of you a very Blessed y Beautiful, and emotionally enlightening, fulfilling Año Nuevo.
Cuidensen.
Babushka Besos to All
