2013 Happy Happy!!!!

Here we are in 2013..in fact we made it to the second day of 2013.

This year started well for me and the honey. We had a meal together and waited for the clock to strike 12.

Getting up the next morning was funnily enough quite a good feeling. The day was really good and I was so glad to have had the time to reflect on the day that has past and the year that it all concluded. The honey and I worked hard this year and I believe that we got everything that we set out minds to. Certainly we were very fortunate.

Not often do we realise how fortunate we are because we are so caught up in wanting what we think we need... we often forget we only develop a desire to have something because we think that it would make us happier.

I look back at the happenings of the year that has just gone and realise now more so than then ...that in fact me and the honey have been very very fortunate...I am greatful for all we have and decided that it would be good to look beyond myself and the honey..

I think this year I would like to do some voluntary work and I will make a concerted effort to do this. This is not my NEW YEARS RESOLUTION... we know those are never kept...speaking of myself of course...I want to feel like I am making a difference to other's lives...and volunteering is what I think I need to do to get that need satisfied.

I am one of those who tend to cry when I see a sad advert on TV about poverty, abused children etc etc...it is so sad watching it...so instead of just sitting and watching it and feeling sad I want to start feeling that I am doing a bit more to try and make the world better for those who may be less fortunate than I am.

My new year resolution like every year is to try and look after myself, lose weight, be healthy, connect spiritually, be happy and be forgiving. I will again promise to try my best to become the person I believe I am and hope that this year I get closer to that than what I did the year before and the one before then and so on and so on....

So change is on the horison for me and sometimes my responses to these will be pathetic but I hope that I pull myself together enough so that I can say, upon reflection, I took what I needed from this and will make the best with what I have.

I wish a good year to all and hope that all your resolutions are achieved over the year ahead.
