2013-My Year of New Resolutions

December 28th, 2012

Looking back at the year of 2012, I will admit, it hasn't been my best year so far. Lot's of ups and downs in my life, consumed by not only me, but others, too. Yet I find myself pushing along with my head held up high, always keeping strong, holding on for any possible light at the end of each tunnel. I have a strong spirit, it's just who I am and always will be. I must keep the faith.

Every year for me starts out fresh with hopes of a better year ahead. We all do. We have our traditional new years resolutions that may last a couple weeks, but then we end up same ole, same ole. That's me anyway. So this year, my resolution is to be consumed with more love, hope and faith.

So before I celebrate this new year, I plan to stop for a moment and reflect on this past year I am gladly leaving behind. I will remember the achievements and the mistakes, promises I may have made or have broken. I will think of the laughter, great thoughts and ideas, and the things I never accomplished. This is what my new year will be about, getting another chance. That second chance to do better, to do more and give more. Embrace what I may become and to remember to love one another and to be kind to others even more.

I personally feel there are so many things in this world I cannot control. I have not only lost friendships, but I have gained new ones too. I have seen life and I have seen death. The worst was the recent tragedy to our young as we all know. But it's important to remember the things we can control. Like forgiveness, that second chance, and new beginnings. Because the one thing that can turn my world of a lonely place to a beautiful place, is love. Love is what gives me hope for this new year, and in turn, I hope it does for you too.

Keep the faith. Happy 2013!
