To my best relationship ever,
Three years ago, I was sitting in my room, doing the exact, very same thing--writing my first blog of the year. I remember having the this-is-going-to-be-the-start-of-everything kind of feeling, and looking back, it wasn't really the start of everything. It was just the start of a new year--the start of 2007 to be exact.
This year, you promise to be different because I'm starting with a clean canvas--and by clean canvas, I mean no job (yes, you say I'm crazy, quitting my job when everyone else seems to be looking for one.) No money either (yes, I'm as poor as a rat, I know.) But I'm keeping a positive attitude for you will (hopefully not redraw but) draw me a new--more colors, chockfull of paint, love, and life. And no, I'm not hoping that this year will be a good one for us, I just know for sure that it will be.
One way or another, I will find a way to turn things around and you will help me. As I say goodbye to the year that was, I'm embracing the love, parties, friendships, and new career path that is your promise of this year. And OK, throw me all the dramas too--it will make my year interesting! Give me all cause for tears---it will water up my dried plants. Send me the bumps and knacks on the way---it will bring change to my once dull life. When it all comes knocking on my door, I will be more than willingly obliged to let it in.
Welcome 2010, and don't ever think that I am doing it all over again, but this is it--the start of everything! This year won't be like any other! I'm sure we will have a fantabulous time together. J.
