Normally I'm not one to sit and reflect. I'm not a live in the past type of gal. What's done is done, you can't change it, so move on. Yet, I am sitting here thinking about the last year. It has been insanely busy and full of change. Some good, some bad, some extraordinary.
I've said hello to new friends, good bye to some old ones.
I've started a relationship and ended it.
I've spent the year writing and living out my dream.
I've seen things and been places that were on my todo list.
I've realized what a true friend is and I have seen what it is like to be hurt by a friend.
I've learned some hard lessons, the biggest one was regarding trust.
I've learned that solitude is the best way to deal with ones anger.
Because of everything that has happened to me this year, I've realized a few things about myself, some I don't like and other things I am proud of. One thing I did realize is I have been given a gift and I need to start working harder to achieve the goals that come with that gift. Reflecting, I realize that 2009 is going to be a stellar year, but I need to work harder to make dreams come to fruition.
Do I regret any of the negative things that have happened in my life. Not at all, they happen so you appreciate the wonderful things, that and I live by the motto 'never live your life with regrets, don't wake up tomorrow and say to yourself, woulda, coulda, shoulda.' Life is to short for regrets.
2009 is just a few days away and I cannot wait for it to get started!!! I know this crazy journey that is my life is about to get crazier and I have amazing family and friends who are willing to come along on the ride with me, and I promise those who do that it is going to be one hell of a ride.
