On Resolutions

New Years Eve is nearly upon us and I have nothing. Not one Resolution and I am pleased with that position. Every year I approach January first with a list of "to do" and "to be" and that first month I am all caught up in it, and then it slowly dribbles till April I find myself searching my blog looking to see what I resolved to do.

I am content with life right now, I have things ahead of me, and things behind me, but for the most part I am ready to simplify life and just be. Just be in the moment, and not let things get too complicated.  I am the quintessential neurotic that over analyzes all too often and doesn't sit back and let things happen. I don't necessarily believe in "taking total control and making it happen" either.

2011 left me heartbroken, thankful, frustrated, blessed, angry, loved, sad, blissful and everything in between. 2012 will be simple. Happy. Less complicated.

And hopefully, God will see it fit to be so.

Drop the last year into the silent limbo of the past.  Let it go, for it was imperfect, and thank God that it can go.
