I have come to the realization that the year is almost gone and at this point most people start to compound lists upon lists of things they would like to achieve in the comming year. How about I make a bunch of new year resolutions?, cliche..Chances are most people will stick to the master plan for a month or two then drop off eventually..Little wonder why Golds Gym and all those fitness places make tons of money from people who had hoped to stay in shape all year.
Okay, I admit it , I’m guilty too..I remember in my youth days my folks would make us write a list of very specific goals we wanted to achieve the next year, I remember always starting my list with “I want to come first in my class next term (finish at the top of my class at the end of the term)”. Boy, have I grown out of those days.
I really wouldn’t say that I have seen everything life has to offer, but from the little of this life that I experienced and seen, I know that very specific goals and needs won’t do it anymore. So for the next year I want to live my life in a such a way that I’ll show my creator that I really appreciate the priviledge he has given me to remain on this planet. I want to experience joy and also spread and share this joy with friends and family. I want to labour each day like there was no tommorrow, and appreciate each passing day like it was my last. Call me selfish, but I would like to be really successful, so I would strive to reinvent myself in the professional sense and otherwise and surround myself with people that can help me acheive those dreams.
At the end of the year I would like to look back and say; Papa thank you for everything with the greatest conviction in my heart, and most importantly I just don’t want to live through this life, I want to really live…
