New Leaf...

Here we are again, a new year and yet another new leaf being turned with hope and resignation. I feel like every year I say "This year is different!" but this year is... different. I feel older, more grown up, ready to face the world as woman with responsibilities. I have eliminated�most of my previous distractions (or they have eliminated me) and have been able to finally see how destructive all of the background nonsense was. How I put myself up on a shelf while I let others consume all of the attention. My plans for this year are much more realistic and reek less of flights of fancy. There may be a bit of the fanciful but their flights have been grounded and they remain firmly planted deep�within the earth, ready to sprout when condidtions are best.

�I believe the average person resolves to be more open to new possibilities in the new year but being open has never been my problem.� This will be a year of building slightly less permeable walls.� A year of realistic endeavors that feature myself as the star player and gives supporting roles to everyone else. Opening doors only large enough for me to squeeze through and mending all of the cracks and holes that let out the warmth. Really feeling the goodness of the world instead of just letting others describe it to me. I will give myself one gift everyday to acknowledge how far I've come and to fortify me for road ahead.

'It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's new life for me, and I'm feeling good'
