This too shall pass

During this time of year, I always get a little more depressed than normal. Usually something has happened, or nothing has happened around this time to invoke this deeper sense of feeling. This year, too many things have happened to contribute to my current state of being, some good, some bad, but it has forever shaped me into what I am now. As the year comes to a close with just a week left for everyone to ponder on the past year and further ponder on what will happen in the next. We set ourselves goals to reach by the next year; I, for one, never call them resolutions, because those things never work for anyone. So here I sit deep in thought, surrounded by my family, wondering what’s next for me. I never thought I’d be where I am today, yet here I am, miserable and alone. I’m not going to complain, I got here on my own and I’ll make it out here the same way. Nobody can make you do anything in life, you have to sift your way through the puzzle that is life before you can ultimately decide what you did was right, or what you did was a complete mistake.

Here’s to you 2008; here’s to a better time, a better life and a better me.
