New Years.

I really sometimes despise New Years. It's really a time for people to lie to themselves. Lie that they are going to loose those extra 5 lbs, lie that their relationship is going to get better, Lie that they are going to change anything that they currently do. Then, you get the people that say that they want to get closer to God. Do not get me wrong. I think that it is great that someone wants that but shouldn't they want that 365 days? Shouldn't we all want to make changes year round? I just don't understand why we wait until the beginning of the new year to make changes. I mean is it because we haven't changed anything in the old one? Because we are not at a stage in our lives that we want to be at so we cope? Whatever the reason for a resolution this year I don't know that mine is going to be any great change. I mean I know that there are things that I can do better but I really think that the things that I have gotten right this year are amazing and if nothing changes, if I am still in a similar position next year. Sitting on my couch in my p.j.'s with cute dogs on them, with a husband that perterbs me sometimes but I still love. With a roof over my head, my bills paid, and food in my belly I will be thankful. If I have people to love that love me in return the same as this year I will be happy. I dont need a new job or promotion. I dont need purpose in my life. I have that. My God, My Job, and my Husband, and my Family and friends. But, if the throng of angry new year's partiers insist that I make a resolution fine. Here it is.

To be more in love with my husband, family and friends than I already am.
To be sucessful in my job and in my school so maybe next year a second college degree can be within my grasp.
To continue on in my relationship with God.
To take the time to make memories that I will never forget and that will always cherrish.
To travel.
and, to just be overall happy.

So, to everyone out there Happy New Year. But more importantly, I hope you made memories in the old year that are worth remembering
