Getting Back on Track

This was my second blog and I really wanted to keep this one updated, but it didn't turn out too well. My camera broke and that was just the excuse I used for not blogging. After reading some of my friend's blogs (Kahlil, Anny, and Adwoa) I decided that it was time to get back to blogging. There are so many topics to discuss and Im excited to restart my blog.

2009 was a year of change and challenges for me. Things happened that I never expected and as painful as they were, I appreciate God for putting me through them. I truly believe that He won't put you through anything that He knows you can't handle. At the time, I didn't know that, but I came out of it alive and stronger that I ever was. It helped me find myself as ironic as it sounds. I'm still struggling with certain issues, but I know with due time that everything will works itself out. I just look forward to what 2010 brings. With that being said, I'm going to list some of my resolutions. I try to keep my resolutions as realistic as possible, no point in trying to do something that I know won't happen.

Resolutions for 2010:

1. Make a healthy lifestyle change. I know this is a very common resolution, but my goal isn't just to lose weight. It's to change my bad eating habits and be healthy with exercise. Your body is very important and we must all take care of it, so I'm focusing it on that. It's not just for 2010, but for the rest of my life.

2. Do things I never did. I want this year for me to be my year. I will be graduating with my BA and I will be stepping into the real world, but before that I want to take advantage of my life before I take that first step. I want to go rock climbing, try different food from different cultures, try being more fashion forward, and anything that will make me happy. It's more of taking the effort to broaden myself.

3. Developing a stronger relationship with God. I do have one, although it may not be as strong as I would like it, I will work on making a stronger one and getting more involved with my church.

4. Taking time for myself. I'm going to use this year to do things that make me happy. This might sound selfish, but I really need to take this time to not worry about what other people think about me or my choices. I'm going to focus on worrying about me and continue to find myself.

5. Forgiving. I need to do this not only for the other person, but for myself. It's something that has been weighing me down and I know that in 2010 I will forgive, not forget because I am human, but to move on and let the past be the past.

I hope you guys enjoyed my new post. Do you guys have any resolutions that you really want to keep?

I think my resolution is to be more focused, n murder these damn classes!! but The whole forgiveness thing is cool. It's one of the more rewarding things you can do for yourself, and it makes such a world of difference for your future. It brings a whole lot of peace. You give ya self a chance to really be happy again. I like this piece girl.
