And often times I feel like time is flying by without me being able to enjoy it, but that actually hasn't been the case so far this year. In the last three weeks of the new year I've made a point to enjoy life, and not just let it pass me by. To savor all the moments, from the fun to the everyday: girls night out for dinner and a movie, organizing the condo with the SO, cooking dinner, working out, field trips with the SO, hanging with a best friend and my god daughter, and so many more.
I am not going to let life pass me by this year. I am going to take it all in. I am going smile, laugh, envelop myself in happiness and covet all the memories yet to be made. And I know that the year won't be full of all good things, so I am going to embrace the not so good as well. I am going to let myself cry when I need to, and take deep breaths to work through aggravating situations.
I resolve this year to be a better me. And in doing so a better friend, girlfriend, daughter, sister, neighbor.

dearest friend - you have no idea how i needed to hear those exact words today. Well said, well done! I absolutely love it - more than that, am inspired by it!
We must be more on the same wavelength than I realized! Since Jan. 1 I've had a quote on my computer that reads "Take a deep breath, stare boldly into the face of a new year, and be deliberate about moving forward. Change is a decision we get to make, so this year, live life on purpose." Word!
