New Years Resolution?

So 1 year ago from January three friends started on a journey. We had a bright idea to start a blog, with the hopes that it would stretch our limits while drawing us closer. We started off strong and January of 2010 went off without many hitches (for those newcomers, we were vegetarians). We slowly fizzled out, until we reached the end in September. That month we decided to simply blog - which after 6 days and 2 blogs DIED. Yes it must be in all caps, if that can give any indication to the type of death it suffered. Many could have seen this coming, as I rarely stick to things, but we had high hopes. Still being discouraged, I did not think about or discuss any matters to blogging on January of 2011. I did not even think of New Years Resolutions - what’s the good of them anyways? Just as quick as a year flew by, April appeared before I even comprehended the new year and what that meant in my life. Therefore my new year started to form and take shape in April (I have always been a little slow).

April was quite a month of changes for me. I had just gotten back from arguably the most life-changing trip (third - go -round to Mexico City), and I had turned in my notice at work (for full-time at least). A big step in my world - so no judging. I am off to Peru for the majority of June. Off to TN to chaperone the youth the last week of June. Off to El Salvador in Sept. Off to Mexico City sometime thereafter. Big changes in my life are on their way, and I just hope I am making enough room for them. I am tired of standing in their way.

So here I am, the first of May (close enough anyways) to start my new year. While I won’t be doing crazy things every month, I hope my life this year is so much more interesting that I do not need challenges. My life this year better hold challenges within itself, rather than self-created disasters.
