So they say out with the old and in with the new - year after year - resolution after resolution --- like most things those resolutions fall by the way side leaving one with a sense of regret in the end. The old adage Out with the old, well that only applies to clothes and shoes (maybe if they are no longer absolutely adorable) In with the new, hmmm well that is only the new sense of pretending it is new.
My new years resolution is simple - BE GRATEFUL - absolutely 100% genuinely grateful...For all things in my life past and present - No regrets, no take backs or do-overs.
This year is about making me the best I can be sans popular public opinion - It is about a journey of self-discovery not because it is trendy but because it is neccessary! It is about finding out who I am, what I want and not worrying about what this one or that one says or thinks about my decisions. It is about being more private, living more fully and loving more openly and honestly than ever before!
It is about retaining those things I cast aside because I could not see the full reality of what those things were because I was looking to hard at what they could be and the potential of it all - but what good is potential if you cannot appreciate the rawness of it to begin with?
So 2011 here I come with a new perspective --- and hopefully a renewed sense of self! and lookout to those of you who stand in my way of my own happiness (this also means me because sometimes, well most of the times it is our"self" that stands in our own way) but for those select few others that think I care what they think, think again! and for those who stand in my way I will not mow you down or stomp all over you but I will ask you Once politely to please step aside but be careful I only ask that once Nicely then it is full speed ahead!
Because this year is my year to make it happen for me!
