The Best of 2007
Every year, I write an ending letter on December 31 in which I reflect over what has happened over the past year. This is more because of common tradition than anything else because I do not read the news, I do not remember what has happened over the past 365 days, and I could not possibly cover all of the things that might or might not be of importance that I wish to recall. Last year, I talked about the future for 2007 and brushed upon general goals I had hoped for that year. Unfortunately, none of them were fulfilled, but I’m keeping my hopes up.
This year, I wanted to do something different, but was unsure of how to go about it. Sure good things happened, bad things happened, but nothing spectacular happened and if I was going to reflect upon the year, that’s what I would talk about. Making goals are difficult, though the ones for Lucid Waking I can keep, but ones that really count (such as those towards world peace) are going to be hard to do on my own (especially with a war going on that I had noting to do with). So I leave this year’s review up to you. Whatever things you’re happy for or happy about…share them. Whatever things you hoped went better, work to change them or prevent them. Or if you want the news, take this survey and see how much you know. I didn’t do so well, but you might fare better.
This year, I want everyone, including myself, to focus on the good, hold out, and keep it up. Giving up only when you forget and then getting back right on track when you remember. Call someone up and talk for a little while. Let them know you’re still thinking about them. Give a couple gifts, even if they’re just hugs or hellos, live it up for a day. Give a little, care a little, respect more than ever. Help someone. Think about others. Breathe.
Happy New Year to all, you have a fresh start. Keep standing tall and live through your heart. Best wishes.
