So yet another New Year under the belt and as always , I co
e across the question: "So! What's your New Years resolution?" I've come to the conclusion that I loath this question almost as much as I dispise the manditory Order of Christmas. Though, in spite of this, I suppose I shall adhere to the tradition.
The past year has left me fairly contented; I remained fairly healthy in diet and excercise having resisted meaty temptations and taken to bike riding, walking and yoga in the morning (the last couple months excluded); worked very hard on focussing on what's good for me mentally emotional (which may have caused me to become slightly selfish but I can sort that out); I got my nose peirced, though that wasn't a major goal of mine. I said I was going to pull myself out of the rut I'd fallen into - I think that I managed that though the results I'm sure are yet to be seen. I succeeded in getting out of the service industry which was an incredible feat for me as it's the only work I've ever known.
I finished my course, achieving a Master Herbalist Diploma - thus conquering the first step to getting my PhD in Holistic Healing. That's a big one.
I dreaded my hair and have kept them for a full year (and counting) and once again feel the need to bring up that I've gone without non-fishy meat for over a year (also still counting).
With my plans for the next year I feel slightly like I'm taking a step back. However, while I could lol at the situation as to retreating into an almost comfort zone, I could also look at having gone to gain an experience and my return has lead to be able to reflect and analyze my experience to better learn from it. However, further experiences at home have lead me to realize just how much of a hold the red dragon has over me, that one can truly love their captor. And I assure you I am making no references to any opium derivatives.
But because my plans for the year require what could be viewed as a step back, how can I make a realistic goal for myself? I can't really. So instead I tell myself to stop bring such a slacker, quit letting people walk over me in work, do what makes me smile, and smile anyway. Write more and keep takibg steps to where I need to go.
Very broad and vague goals but hopefully that leaves slot of room for me to aconplish them.
Happy New Year 2010
