Another Year...We're Still Here

Wow how time has passed and the year has flown by. It feels almost like yesterday that the clock struck midnight and the world celebrated the beginning of the end of the world. Now a year later we are still here and the clock is about to strike the start of a new year. (I will resist the urge to shout, I told you so! ;)

2013. Try saying that allowed. Another year for change, challenges, and chaos. A chance for New Year's Resolutions to start and end before February ;), and a sense of complacency to set in. That's the traditional style of Americans, isn't it?

But what if this year brought about a different sort of life? A life that when one looks back on the year he or she is satisfied with the outcome, an outcome of accomplishment. Is that too much to ask though? I feel for myself that the goal may be too much. Life gets crazy, and I get lazy.

Yet, maybe this year I will muster up enough energy to try and change at least my life. I want the end of the year to bring a sense of satisfaction, a sense that if I died tomorrow my life will not have been pointless, and I will have made some difference, even in the smallest way, in someone's life somewhere.

Yeah, that may be too much to ask of myself, but then again I could surprise myself. I guess only time will tell. I will keep you updated on my progress. Hopefully at least I can make it past February. ;)
