I don't really get into the whole New Year's thing. I don't care to celebrate on New Year's Eve or make resolutions. Each day is a new beginning and opportunity to begin again. In fact, you can do this any time during any day. I don't think there is anything magical about the first of January. However, I do like to look forward to new possibilities. For 2011 I've made a list below of the things I am looking forward to:
- A year being 50 years old and doing what is good for me or as my sister says, "Taking care of number one. If I don't no one will."
- I look forward to enjoying my family more and work less. I'll continue to enjoy work - but I look forward to the possibility of spending more time with family. I've been working on my doctoral degree since 2002 (finished in 2009) and I've been missing time with family.
- I look forward to a "vacation" this year. I haven't taken time away from work that was more than 4 days and didn't include some packing of work or school related reading/writing/work. I am going on vacation in 2011!
- I look forward to more sleep. I've never been a stellar sleeper but in the past few months I crave more sleep and rest.
- I look forward to more serenity in 2011.
- Finally, I look forward to the positives and less than positive moments, as these give me opportunities to grow and learn more.
