Welcome to 2011!

Really living
is when a human being chooses
to awaken from their comfy trance
of resignation and circumstance
and step into their destiny,
their purpose, their freedom,
their possibility.

-Judy Morris

It's a new year. I don't think that really means it's a time to make a resolution. Who sticks to those anyways? I always thought they were dumb and never really made one mainly because it didn't interest me. Hey how you make up something that you don't really care about doing and forget about it in a week. Are you really committed to doing something you mentioned off hand because someone ask you, possibly while drunk, what you were committed to changing? What are you going to do with that?

So use the new year as a chance, maybe to reexamine where you are in your life and what you are doing. I woke up a few weeks ago and realized simply how pathetic I was being and made a choice not to be so pessimistic. It took work, but it was a choice I was ready to make. Running everyday is not something I could do right now, I mean I could but I don't want to right now and it's a resolution I have made at least 3 times before. I don't like running in the cold so it's a stupid thing to commit to right now. There's  my difference. So I'm going to focus on little choices that I think can change my outlook, my approach to life or simply how I live everyday. Not sure what they are going be yet but I'll keep you updated.

Here's to a great 2010 and an even greater 2011!
