It's startling how much things can change with a new year. If you think about it logically they really shouldn't. It's another day. A turning of a page on a calendar which is nothing more than a sheet of paper. So why is it that everything seems to shift every time a new year starts? Is it our intentions and goals that we set for ourself? Our expectations? Is it because our mindfulness changes? Do we just do this to ourselves when we really don't have to? God I hope so.
2014 was My year of Discovery, and it lived up to that goal. I discovered a lot about myself, my relationships, my wants and needs, my recovery, and a great deal of other things. All in all I think it turned out to be a pretty fantastic year for me.
2015 isn't starting out so hot. My year of Education. I deemed it that because I'm starting school again. I'm taking my last pre requisite this semester and then I start the vet tech program in the fall. I'm very excited about this. In deeming this my year of education I didn't think I would be prepared for all that meant. There have already been a lot of life lessons added to the equation that I wasn't prepared to be a part of the overall picture. I've had some rough, frustrating days lately, and I can totally see this as a part of my year of education. But I have dealt with those things pretty well thus far. That's been my lesson this month, I think. Shit happens, you can deal with it.
So to summarize, so far it's been trying, but not bad. I'll get the hang of this thing called living one of these days :)
