Good Bye 2013

Well. I haven't posted in a while, but hopefully I'm back.

I just want to do a quick (ish) post to end 2013 on.

A lot of stuff has happened this year and I'm sad to see that another year has came and gone so fast, but at the same time I can not express enough how excited I am for 2014.

Somewhere on the list of things you think about when you hear '' New Year '' is your resolution for the upcoming year. Usually I fall in with the crowd that promises to lose weight and get fit. But I'm already going to be doing that (my wedding is in 2 and a half months... I HAVE to tone up at least somewhat lol). Instead, this year I'm going a different route.

My new year resolution for 2014 is to change my attitude on life. In truth, it's to go back to being my '' normal '' self.

Let me explain.

I use to be this (almost) always happy, always giving person. I'm human so i'm not perfect, mix imperfections with crazy emotions and you can imagine what happens. But for the most part, I was happy. For example:

*I would share with anyone, I would give until I had nothing left to give. It didn't matter if you were family or not.

*Little things didn't bother me. It didn't matter if some crazy person cut me off and I had to slam on the brakes. I was just happy I didn't get into an accident and I moved on. No big deal.

*I use to go above and beyond for everything. It didn't matter if it benefited me or someone else, if there was an opportunity to go a step further, I tried it. I just mostly always tried to be the best. Sometimes in the conceited way (just being honest!) but usually in the helpful way. It didn't matter if what I did was acknowledged or not, I was still happy with myself.

I just generally was a happy go lucky person.

Then life happened.

Somewhere along the way I started to change. I'm still happy, but, there's a difference. I let the smallest things ruin my day. I pick fights over stupid things. If I don't think I'll get something in return, I tend to no do things. I just do the minimum of what's expected of me. Basically, I'm wasting my time here on Earth.

I'm tired of being alive and not living. I'm tired of giving the best of me to things that don't deserve it, and I'm tired of not enjoying everyday. It's hard to explain exactly what I mean, but everyday is a celebration and I miss living my life that way.

I know it's not an overnight resolution, it's going to take time to change the bad habits I've created for myself. But, I'm determined to make 2014 my best one yet. I'm doing this for others around me, but I'm mostly doing it for myself.

And, as a side resolution... I'm going to take more pictures. I REALLY hate that I don't have more pictures of this year. Pictures make me happy, so it should help my first resolution!

But yeah, it's time to start actually living my life to the fullest again. I'm looking forward to it.

Good bye 2013, hello 2014.

Until next time,

I heard this song for the first time on the way to work this morning. It's actually what made me realize what my resolution is. Cute song, very inspirational.
