It's a New Year!! Woo Hoo!!

I was thinking about how everyone is always so big into the new years resolution thing. I have, of course, tried this a few times. What I have found is that no one ever follows through, or rather I never follow through, so this year I decided to not even bother. Instead, I tried to think about how I can make a difference in my life this year, however it may be. To think about long term goals, and what I can do to make a difference to someone else this year. I want to be a better person, and learn from my mistakes from previous years, and just enjoy life. It doesn't have to be this strict rule that won't be followed. I look at it a little like when your a teenager and someone gives you a rule to follow, and all you really want to do is rebel and break it. I want to just smile and laugh a little more, and not be so caught up in all the negative in life. Why not enjoy it everyday? Especially in these times of economic change and upheaval, we should look at what really matters. 2008 was a tough year, so in my book it won't take much to beat it. I have a wonderful husband and daughter, and I can't ask for much more than that.
So here's to a new year! Cheers!!
