And the resolution is..

I’m still in the first 12 hours of 2012 and I can’t wait to see what the rest of the days have to surprise us with. I came across this article that said the number 1 resolution this year is to spend more time with friends and family. That shouldn’t even be a resolution. I try and do that everyday of my life. There was a period of a time that I didn’t have any friends. And to be honest, it really wasn’t that long ago. When you have a baby at a young age and the rest of your friends at the time don’t, you begin to lose the care you once had for anything other than that tiny human. Your friends will love your baby. It’s a baby. Who doesn’t love babies? They just won’t be interested in talking about the shit and you won’t know what else to say. So, you lose contact with everyone. In turn, losing your connection to the world you never thought would slip away so easily.

It’s only been a recent 2 years that I’ve had a handful of great friends. But I have laughed and cried and loved more in the past two years than the rest of the times I can remember. I make sure the ones I surround myself with are all about loving and living life, and having the best time all while having the worst. What the hell would I be doing with my life if I didn’t have these people to share it with?

2. a resolve or determination: to make a firm resolution to do something.

3. the act of resolving or determining upon an action or course of action, method, procedure, etc.

4. the mental state or quality of being resolved or resolute; firmness of purpose.

Take a look back at 2011.  Think about all the shit that you want to leave there. Resolve it. You are the only one that has the ability to do so.

Find your purpose. Not for life, but for right now.

If I could ever say one thing it would be to love your life. Love yourself. Love your friends and love your family.

                                            

The number 5 New Year’s resolution is to simply enjoy life more.

This year, do just that.

Let your kids get that extra bedtime snack.

Let your hair go crazy!

Let your heart go crazy.

Say how you really feel. So many people miss their last chance to even say anything at all. There are things you really just can’t say, but more times than not, you can always say it. If it’s the truth, it will be okay in the end.

Let go of the dumb shit and keep the ones that will always make you smile.

Read a book again. If it’s a good book, it will hit you different each time.

[StumbleUpon]I come across so much cool shit on here!

Don’t worry about things. Seriously.

Everyday can be different. I’m hoping for the whole year to be different.

2012 is my bitch.

                      tomorrow won’t be like today.
