At this time of year, like everyone else, I've grown a bit nostalgic- thinking of the year past, the friends I made, the friends I lost touch with, the places I went, the things I did and saw. They call it taking stock of your life, and for me, its my chance to make a list of what went down, checking it twice, seeing where I was naughty or was nice, and THEN making resolutions to do better in the coming year. Its the symbolic chance to start fresh in a new year. Nothing too prophetic here.
As I read the Digital Haus Frau's blog today, it kind of helped to pull together my swirling thoughts that for a while had been trying to coalesce, but some how, was missing something to make it all mean "SOMETHING". I could only second her thoughts and attempt to ponder what my contribution to "to thinking more about the Big Stuff" would be and how I could help. So, in no particular order, here are my few New Years resolutions. None will probably knock your socks off, but I think its time to get back to the basics, to what really matters, and try to just be better.
- Be happy
- Be nice
- Take care of myself
- Care for others
- Be a part of the solution (read: the Big Stuff)
Its kinda of exciting to think there is a shiny new year just waiting for us to create. It holds all sorts of undreamed of possibilities. What do you resolve for the New Year?
