Announcement Welcome to 2024!

[Rei]

Howdy howdy howdy, darlin's! I know we've been a little quiet on our end, but as we move into the new year, our team wanted to take a minute to express some thoughts to you all as we move on and ahead.

From yours truly!:

The happiest of new years to you darlings. I know everyone has their own corner of stress happening, and some people are struggling more than others. But you are each loved, valid, and have a frog thinkin' of you over here ♥ Even if I'm hibernating a little bit. I want us to continue to grow, and to support one another like nobody's business.

I challenge you to pick a word for this year, a theme to stick to.
My word for 2024 is going to be 'Grace' - to give to others, to act with, and to give myself, most importantly.

Put your word in the comments ♥ What does it mean for you?

My word for this year is going to be "moment." To remember to stay in the moment and enjoy it. To take each moment as it comes. And remember to take moments for me as well.

And many, many moments roleplaying here on umbra!

 

[humon]

My word for this year is.... n-

nevermind

 

[Notyoursavior]

my word is improvement. i've been focused on it for a bit. every aspect of my life is improving while some are downgrading.

i really want things to look up. i've got a lot of friends here now, and am getting used to my "new normal" so to speak.

 

[Vyx]

My word for the new year is... Serenity. As my mind is often scattered, I find it sometimes hard to place yourself in the present moment, feel it and accept it for what it is. I want to work towards finding a more general peacefulness in all moments that permeate my life this coming year, good or bad.

Can't wait to disrupt all of my characters' serenity for the entirety of 2024

 

[Caroline_DuVeld]

My word this year should be "balance".

 

[ural]

My word for this year is twelve-hundred. As in calories. As in 1200 is enough for me. I’ve been hitting the gym after work (3-4am) which is nice because it is empty. I felt really motivated after losing a few pounds so huzzah! Imma keep going.

 

[beesmusings]

My word is focus.

I’m focusing on my career and school so I can get where I wanna be.

 

[PriorSage]

I think my word for 2024 is compassion. For others, for myself.

... Probably not for my characters though.

 

[AkiraDawn]

My word is for 2024 is Presence 😀

 

[SilverFox3]

I think my word for 2024 should 'connect.' I need to reconnect with my roots, and connect with myself again. Connect with nature, and my friends and family. A focus I should have moving into this year is connecting myself with the present more than I have been.

Best of wishes and a happy new year to everyone!

 

[KVR]

My word for 2024 would probably be revenge. As in, I'm really feeling in the mood for some good ol' fashioned revenge plots, with a healthy sprinkling of political intrigue 😀

 

[Orbit]

Persistence.
Self-explanatory really. I shall endeavour to Persist!

I wish a healthy 2024 for you all.

 

[~MetalAngel444~]

I didn't have a word but now I think I have one: Renew. I need to rediscover myself in different ways and renew myself in others. I've fallen on hard times and then continued to be compacted into the earth, but I'm not giving up, I'm standing again and I'm going to heal myself. That's my path for this year.

 

[humon]

Is that a.... bot post ...?

 

[~MetalAngel444~]

Was kinda thinking the same?

 

[Rei]

I've handled it.
