have you had your introspection today?

Jan 09, 2007 16:31

I'm tired of being here, I want to go back to California and get my life started back on the right track again. I'm ready to be gone again, doing things, rather than stuck in the same everyday rut that always waits for me in this sad town. I'm starting to feel like I don't belong anymore because I'm one of the few that got out. Can't move backwards.

Moving on. In many ways. I've made a few decisions in the past few days. you could even go so far as to call them resolutions, if you so desire.

1. I'm going to be better to myself.
This means I'm going to make an effort to be healthier in general,I'm going to start paying more attention to what I need, emotionally and physically, and maintain a healthy level of activity. I'm going to quit doing certain things that are not good for me and my body. This is going to be hard, possibly the hardest, but I owe it to myself, because I love me.

2. I'm going to waste less time on men/relationships.
Because honestly, I have better things to do with my time. I have an amazing group of friends, I have a promising future, and I'm amazing. I'll let the romance stuff come to me, no need to waste my precious energy chasing a man when I could be chasing a fire truck to get a great spot news shot.

3. I'm going to start writing again.
Regularly. I have a lot of talent that hasn't seen the light of day for a long time, and I don't really want to see it rot and start to stink. I always comment on how amazed I am that our generation on average has an exponentially smaller grasp of vocabulary than those previous. Personally, since I love words so very much, I intend to use more of them, more often.

4. I'm going to be happy
If the previous three decisions plus focusing on my photography don't make this happen on their own, I'm going to go and find what else there is out there to make myself happy. I'm going to embrace life and the people who are close to me. It really seems very simple.
