Here we are.....

Well, here we are, in the year 2009. Who'd have thunk it, eh? LOL.

A year from now it will be 2010, and another year will have passed. What will we have accomplished by then? Will we let another year go by, simply pass, without anything real having come of it? What is your intention for 2009 that you could talk about in 2010 and be proud?

Sometimes I think it just becomes too easy to ride the waves and make no headway. In addition, we have things happen to us that set us back, and we fail to recover and keep on keepin' on.

One of my friends has had one of the worst years ever, but she has kept her head up and has had faith that things would turn out okay, and they have for the most part. I admire that a great deal and can only hope I'd face similar circumstances with as much fortitude. But then, sometimes we forget our own bad times and forget that we have, in fact, stood strong and made things better for ourselves and those around us. We did what needed to be done, regardless of our own discomfort or sacrifice.

So what are you going to do with your 2009???
