New Year's Resolutions



a little belated... I didn't have much inspiration or motivation to make them in the beginning of 09 but after an amazing weekend surrounded by wonderful people, the energy of the city I love, and meeting wonderful new people really gave me the courage to look forward with hope. Just a little schpeal on this blog to keep myself accountable.

I resolve to:

1. Choose to surround myself with good people
2. Maintain healthy communicative relationships with those closest to me
3. Exercise for good health-- mind, body, and spirit
4. Offer more words of praise, encouragement, and condolences to those who need it
5. Take better care of my eyes (aka... stop staring at the computer screen for extended periods of time)
6. Take Bailey for longer walks.
7. Spend as much time as possible outdoors
8. Start training again for races
9. Not linger on negative thoughts, people, experiences, conversations.
10. Be more focused and goal oriented w/ out all the distraction
11. Brush up on photography skills
12. Smile more often
13. Listen to more music
14. Dance more often
15. Not eat based on emotions
16. READ BOOKS

the list goes on... and it's all a work in progress always. but to have set goals to work on is an important thing. It shows you and only you how you have failed and what you have accomplished. It keeps you motivated and accountable. but always a work in progress....

feel it coming



That’s it, I’m all better now
Spit up the last of what made me hurt
I feel light as a feather now
At last I finally know my worth

Thought I’d never learn to be alone
Open all the windows wide
Turn the ringer off the phone
Light my orange candles every night

And I’m wishing on a new moon
Something better’s coming
It’s coming soon….
I feel it coming, I feel it coming, I feel it coming...

refreshing and inspiring... reminds me of how i felt that one summer day after a downpour in Cambridge... beauty finds its way in such varied ways...
