The end of the year always brings out the best in people. Or the worst, depending on each and every one of us. But I think we're all feeling something towards the new year. Whether it's love, hate, excitement, it's never indifference.
My first new year resolution was to try and respect all my resolutions. It's one I've made year after year, until I realized it's only the mirror I watch my soul in, and nothing that could easily be done. But I would love to be able to do it. And for some reasons, it's never the way I want it to be. At the end of December when I have to draw the line, there's always something else I should have done or said. But I tell myself there's time next year around. I don't know if it's true or not, but I've got hope and the air in my lungs, so for now it's enough.
Other resolutions include huge life aspirations that are better off unknown, at least for now. When time comes (and it will, I'm sure) everything will be revealed and quite possibly, all those years with unfulfilled expectations won't matter anymore. I've always thought it's more important to live because life is God's beautiful gift, not for the sake of adding extra points on the to-do list. Is that easy? No. So we make lists and we hope we can make it by the end of the year. You just have to hold on and give it your best shot. You can't be disappointed, if you try hard.
So. In hopes of a wonderful 2010, I write some of my thoughts on this page; maybe this time they will really stick. Maybe.
