New Year..New Me!

Well 2011 is in the past. It was a tough year for me. Lots of ups and downs. I feel like more downs than ups but thats the way life goes. You can't really say that the past doesn't effect the future. It certainly does. You learn from it and grow. You may move on and change but you still have a piece of the past with you, because it helps shape the person you are now. In the moment its so hard to see the bigger picture. You are so focused on the one thing, the one problem, the one heart ache that you don't see what is coming down your path that is better than what you are leaving behind. I am leaving 2011 behind with a lot of pain but looking at 2012 as My Year! My Year to change,grow,learn ect... I am doing this blog because I don't want to do facebook, or anything else. I want to focus on me and not the latest thing to hit my news feed. The people that are imprtant to me know how to get a hold of me and thats all that matters. I just know that its tough to keep in touch so I thought, well what a great way to keep up to date with everyone is if I give them a way to see how I am doing but not deal with all the drama of life. So if you are reading this you should feel lucky because I don't really want to be posting my life all over for everyone and their mothers to see. So for now I am going to go. <3
