out with the old and in with the new

Happy 2007
well, hopefully this year will be better than last year. I remember being so optimistic at the beginning of last year, yeah things were going to be so great. Don’t get me wrong lots and lots of really great things happened last year; I found love again, my sister got married and within months she was pregnant. It just feels like last year was disappointing for me personally. Losing my job was probably the worst thing that happened, and I guess I should be thankful nothing more tragic happened, but I think I got depressed somewhere in the last few months of last year.
I am going to do it again. I am going to predict that THIS year will be a great one. I have the love of my life back, I am starting a new job tomorrow, I will soon be an aunt, and I will be moving back to Denver at mid year (or sooner if I can figure it out) What more could I look forward to? I am excited for 2007. Out with the old and in with the new!
It feels good to start over, again. Fresh starts are always good for me. I just need to figure out how to continue the good things, and purge the bad things from my mind. I don’t know why I am like that, I hold a lot of things in and I know that is bad for me. So that is my resolution this year; to be a more positive and optimistic person and not let the bad things weigh me down. Shit happens, I just need to figure out a way to brush it off without letting it get to me so much.
So there it is. I made a resolution.
To be honest with you it took a lot just now writing this without whining about all the crappy things that happened last year; Ive done enough whining :) I need to start looking at things in a different light. Or maybe I should just step out of the shadows. I’m still working on it and I’m sure I will do a lot of stumbling on the way.
My goal is to look back on 2007 at years end and say to myself “hey that was a great year, lets have another one”.
Now I have that song stuck in my head- you know the one from Monty Python? Always look onnnn the briiiight siiide of life..
Cheers to happier days!
