I was going to pick another poem to start my posts with. I liked the Lewis Carroll thing that I had going.
I have realized that instead of writing on Facebook that I have started the verbal puking on here instead. Maybe its because I am relatively positive that very few people read this. I am not so self conscious about sounding depressed (since I don't think that I am but it sometimes sounds like it). I also think that it helps to have a place to verbalize what I am thinking and how I am feeling. Though I was reading through a few posts from 2005 and realized that I have very little idea was some of these posts are about.
I am trying to make this journal a little more clear about who I am talking about and how I feel. Sometimes that will not be possible. But the attempt is being made. I would hate to get to the end and have this be useless.
Bruises by Chairlift is a great song. Their Album is Does You Inspire You? I think its kind of appropriate on this self reflective journey of a year. I changed the look of the page to reflect that.
the goal this year is to be introspective, focused, and dedicated. I will work on understanding who I am, what I want, what makes me happy, and making myself happy and not relying on others to do this for me.
I will finish reading the book by Henry Nouwen From Lonliness to Solitude. I think that this is an appropriate theme for this year.
