Looking forward to a brand new year!

 

2015: A brand new year!

        Here we are on the cusp of a brand new year and I am excited for all that could/may/hopefully happen next year. I have plans and some of them may happen and some of them may not. 

      I am not really a New Year's resolution person. I used to be but after really changing things for myself and seeing how much I had to work daily at it to be effective I decided that feeling pressured to finish something and change something in only one year is too much and I just want to take every day as it comes, do my best and see how things work out. 

    I do have some goals though so here they are:

1. I want to keep learning to pay attention to my aches and pains and manage them as they come up. 

2. Remembering there is a difference between adventure and stupidity.

3. Also remembering I can do amazing things when I forget there is a difference between adventure and stupidity.

4. Have as much fun as I can every day and be grateful I am here, alive and well, to see another year through!

5. Continue to treasure, and cultivate, my friendships for without them I am a heather flower without a patch of earth to grow from.

6. Love my family more than ever and take good care of those I am entrusted with

7. Keep working hard at my job and continue to do my best for my clients, students and bosses.

8. BE BRAVE!!!

9. Remember where I came from and how much I have accomplished and be happy with where I am day to day.

10. Run as many trails as I can. 

11. Get muddy.

12. Be my own best friend and continue to treasure my alone time.

13. To be totally opposing: Try to be more outgoing when I am out with others. Strike up conversations. Tell my inner introvert it's a good thing to be social.

14. Be more trusting than wary.

15. Keep a smart head about me.

16. Keep track of my stuff 

17. Learn a new thing: whatever that may be

18. Learn several new things

19. Learn every trail in Griffy backwards and forwards

20. Most importantly I want to be happy and grateful and know that I am loved and included and part of a bigger picture. That there are many out there who have so much less than I and I remember that even my worst day is someone's best day. 

Happy New Year!!! Here is to a great 2015!!!
