I like to think I am a nice person. I go out of my way for others and I am extremely loyal, but there is a nasty streak, I guess that is the taurus in me. Its new years eve and I'm not sitting here thinking of new promises and resolutions to breaks jan. 2. Instead I'm reflecting on my life over the past years. I'm at peace with the place I am in life, I'm not happy about it but I've accepted it as my temporary reality. I'm grateful everyday that I wake up and breathe and that I can hear my son breathing. I do take solace in the little things, but I can't help but think of some of the things I've done to people in the past. I remember in high school I began a "relationship" with a boy who dated one of my friends. I started off trying to get the two back together but somehow we ended up liking each other. We shouldn't have done that but we did. I wasn't truly sorry then because I was selfish and I satisfied my wants. There isn't a great list of things that I regret but sometimes I have my "sliding door" moments, you know the butterfly effect what would have happened if I did one thing differently. What would have happened if my mother told me Duke redid my finaid package and I only had to pay $5000, what if I decided to run for USC, would I be mrs. Bush right now? I don't think too far on the what ifs because all roads lead to kingston not existing and I can't imagine not waking up ans seeing him. There's that old saying that if you want to make God laugh then tell him your plans. God must think I'm a comedian. I've spent many nights asking why me, I've even googled it (that was hilarious). I don't ever look at the next person and want their life (no I just wish I had muze's hair and body-kinda, I want my breastfeeding boobies back and her lyrical prowess is sick. ) but I do wish my life was upgraded tenfold. I have all these grandiose dreams in my head and I've never been one to own patience so I just feel as though I'm living a never ending nightmare.
So rather than make useless promises I resolve to continue to work on me.
Granted there are some goals that I'd like to see accomplished, of course I'm supsertitious so I won't spill the important ones. I'll just say that I intend on sitting on a nude beach in jamaica with my thong bikini, I'd like to feel wanted, maybe loved (big maybe) I'd like to see something truly beautiful, something so striking I am just stuck in place. Ok this is starting to sound like my bucket list. At the end of 2008, I found myself to have grown. There was a point where I said I should never speak to one of my friends again. I found out he was having trouble at work which affected him financially. Part of me wanted to just say effe it, I'd just like to get my things back. Instead I sent him a holiday card with some money (nothing crazy, I'm eying these knee high platform boots at bakers). He appreciated it and was grateful amongst other things and I was a bit shocked at myself but I began 2008 immature and self-centered and while I'm still self-centered I'm a bit more mature and I can only work that I progress on this change for 2009. I already know 2009 will be rocky but I'm ready
So happy news years Everyone. Have a safe a healthy Holiday
