The Beginning of 2013

2013 is upon us at last and so far it’s looking quite a lot like 2012 did. 2012 is the year that went by so fast, maybe a little too fast, just like 2011. This year is not the best year for me and my folk, so knowing it’s over is somewhat relieving for all our misfortune. I expected too much from this year, 2012. Luck is not an option though, luck is just an extra freebie mostly for the weak. It’s still hard work and perseverance to modify a living. I had to learn too many things the hard way, which is reality. I don't blame it but I blame the choices that I made myself. I didn't have to go through all the things I've gone through if I knew the consequences. But I'm still somewhat glad I survived 2012 by learning so many things. I must say that 2012 had made me understand myself very well which probably is one of the greatest thing that happened to me. 

Starting this year the same way I ended last year… being productive. Even if it’s something as simple as straightening up my room. I plan on making this the most overall productive year of my life. Whether it be finding work, working out, playing sports, enjoying my hobbies (or making new ones), or going to class. I’m not getting any younger and I know that now is the best time for me to start moving forward and open my mind to new things. 

I've had almost this entire past year to myself and hadn't made much progress in moving forward in any way whatsoever. But what I did have was plenty of time to clear my head and get my priorities straight. Even though my mind is still cluttered with a million thoughts, I feel a sense of clarity. All I need now is to keep a level head on my shoulders learn to stay focused.

So, I’m quite a negative person. I don’t mean to be, but its the way I am. Anyway, instead of making a crappy new years resolution that I’m not going to stick to. I thought I would get some form of a jar and I will fill it throughout the year with little pieces of paper. And what will I write on these pieces of paper? Basically whatever good things happen to me throughout the year, I’ll write down and put it in the box. And at the end of 2013, I’ll open the lid and see what good things happened to me.

I truly hope that all of you have a magnificent year and that 2013 brings you happiness and love.
