What's A Voice Without A Song?
Just a thought, 2008 will be a big a year, just a thought.
I don't like labeling years of my life as "bad". Labeling them as good years comes much more naturally to me. The problem is through all the crap that happened something positive was brought to life. Also amidst all the miserable times there were also some really good times. Times like that and learning experiences gained from bad times make dealing with the other crap in life a load more tolerable. I don't want to say 2007 was a bad year, no it wasn't a bad year. If anything it was a learning experience. The year most certainly did not start off as smoothly as I would have liked to have seen. I was very stupid at the beginning of 2007. I don't like calling myself dumb but my behavior and actions in the past year calls for it. My slip ups in the earlier months of 2007 helped me become a better person later in the year. Over the course of this year I've really changed. It's scary looking back ad seeing how I am almost unrecognizable compared to who I was at this time last year. I feel compelled to say I like this new person more but who knows what I will be thinking next year. The end of 2007 brought about some definite changes in my life and as far as I can see now the changes have been for the better. They puzzled me at first when I even contemplated them and when I made my decisions public, such as quitting soccer, I'm sure I puzzled a lot of other people too. The problem with 2007 being a learning experience is that life is too valuable to waste years trying to figure out what's right and wrong. I know whats right, right for me, right for my future, right for me in the present. I can't make decisions for other people. I can't mediate people on their problems successfully. I just need to live life again. As cliche as that may sound it's really a simple task. If one is able to do what makes them happy and is not armful to themselves or the people they care about then that is living life. If you can have a genuine smile on your face at some point during the day everyday of the year then yes it's a good year. That's the goal for 2008, not a resolution, no never a resolution, just a goal. 2008 will be a big year...if I make it a big year.
