A New Year Family Tradition

Posted by: Steven Wand

Tagged in: ritual , new year , goals , family tradition

For the past several years, on January 1st, Cynthia and I and our two daughters curl up by the fire and engage in our family tradition of letting go of the past and embracing the future.

One at a time, we each open our sacred envelope that contains the previous year's goals and desires and read aloud to the family each one, sorting them into two piles, one representing "yes" that did happen and "no" that didn't and sometimes a third pile is created for the "kind-of-happened" desires written down 365 days earlier.
