Good Riddance!
In about ten hours we will officially say, "So long" to 2005- Thank God!!!! I have stated many times that this is the year that sucks. Just look around, almost everyone experienced something awful this year. It didn't even give us a few days grace; the brother-in-law of a woman I work with was killed in a head-on collision just three days ago. I know that bad stuff happens every day in every year, but it seemed like 2005 was a little over kill. My plan had been to write up some of the crap, but in the spirit of new beginnings I don't really feel like dwelling right now. (Not that it probably would have mattered, because it doesn't seem that anyone reads or posts anymore. Even so, I'll save the"good" stuff for my diary lest anyone is waiting to ambush.)
Here's some of the postive (kinda'): I learned a lot about people this year. Family is a much appreciated rock. I also have friends who will go to Hell and back with me and some that won't. That stings, but what can you do? I'm less naive than I was a year ago. I am seeing more things and people for what and who they truly are. Some of it is comforting, and some of it saddens me. I learned that we are very loved and very supported. A loving support system is priceless. Faith, hope, love and prayer make all the difference. There is growth and strength through pain. Life's better on the other side if you can just get through the hard parts. I've learned to be patient. I've learned to let go. I've learned to forgive. Most of all, nothing is impossible with God.
Here are my hopes for 2006: Lots of love and laughter! I hope that where God closes a door He opens a window. I hope that we strengthen existing relationships, resurrect nearly dead ones and continue to grow new ones. I hope that we get out of town more often! I pray that we are content. I pray that we all have more happiness and less stress. I hope that we all try to understand and appreciate each other exactly where we are at. Life is just too short. I pray that we will accept God's will for this year of our lives whatever it may be.
By the way, Happy Birthday to Andy and Happy New Year 2006 to everyone else!
