Hi everyone, I decided to make an article today in order to wish you happy New Year's Day. First, I would like to mention that we all have resolutions that we would like to achieve in this new year, but we must be realistic. First, every year I told myself that I was going to keep fit, eat well, write and more. In the end, I realize that it did not really work, so I came to understand that my main goal is to create beautiful opurtinities for 2018, but also to seize those that come to me. I realized that by grasping what life gives us we ended up being much happier.

Continuing, I want to mention that happiness is in the simplest things. To be happy we do not have to be millionaires. The most beautiful things we have in life are the people around us. Besides, I take this opportunity to tell you how happy I am to have discovered Steemit, because I found great people who for the most part share their passions and their daily lives.

So, I wish you all a happy new year, a lot of happiness, health and love.

Olivia D.
