something.\u00a0 It might be something new like learning a foreign language, studying photography, or learning to bake.\u00a0 When I learn something new,<strong> a whole new world opens up to me<\/strong>, I challenge myself, reap the rewards of accomplishing something new, and often make new friends along the way.\u00a0 This year, I\u2019m studying yoga.\u00a0 It is a bit slower than some of the other things I\u2019ve taken on in the past \u2013 and I think that is a good thing.\u00a0 In slowing down and studying something new, I expect to expand my horizons and increase my joy.\u00a0
