2012.

Have you ever set a New Years Resolution? 

Usually, I tend to set goals that begin with high hopes and good intentions. Unfortunately, they tend to end up lost sometime throughout the year. As I get older, I think it's important to set goals that are more realistic in the sense that they are achievable and memorable, as opposed to recognizable. That's why this year, my New Years resolution is to write. Write as often as possible. Document every single day. That way, can take a good, hard look at where i'm at, where i've been, and where I want to be when I enter 2013. 

2012 brings a year of changes. I will celebrate 2 lovely years with a fantastic boyfriend & best friend. I will graduate. I will work another year at the best job a girl could ask for. I will watch my brother marry not only his 6th grade girlfriend, high school sweetheart, and next door neighbor. I will move out in the fall and attend a wonderful University and have the opportunity to be apart of one of the best collegiate volleyball teams in the nation.

These changes are welcomed with opened arms and excitement. On the flip side, other changes will come in a not so welcomed manner.

 With that said, I think it's important to live with our faith bigger than our fear, and welcome 2012 with an open, loving, fearless perspective.
