Happy New Year!
I just wanted to wish everybody a happy new year! I just love this holiday. Not because of staying up too late and drinking too much (I actually don’t drink alcohol at all, ever), but I like it for the deeper reasons.
I love the feeling of being able to start fresh. I always try to take the opportunity to reflect on the past year, and decide what things I want to continue and what things I would like to change. I like to make resolutions and goals for the upcoming year as an attempt to better myself and my life.
It happens more often than I would like to admit that I don’t follow through with many of the goals I set for myself. At least not perfectly, but setting them at least gives me something to aim for. I have also found that writing the goals down makes them seem more real. Especially if I put them somewhere that I can see them everyday.
This year I think my goals will be broad. I want to be a happier person. I want to find my style and live more in the moment. This year I will try to sew more things. I will try new things and if I find something I enjoy, I will pursue it. I will try to exercise at least 5 times a week, and eat more veggies. I also want to be easier on myself if I don’t accomplish my goals perfectly every week. I want to take life a little less seriously. I will Laugh when life’s hard and cry when I’m happy. Here’s to 2010!
