Well,
it’s official. 2012 is finally
here. Whether folks were ready nor not,
it’s arrived. For some, that may have
been with a big celebration. Others may
have opted to keep things more subdued.
However individuals chose to ring in the New Year, one thing’s for
certain, it’s here and no doubt people have allowed their minds to meander the
possibilities of what this new year might bring with it.
Yesterday,
I wrote how the ringing in of the New Year is a time when I reflect and prepare
for challenges that are to come. I was
remiss in mentioning the joyful surprises a new year can herald in with
it. How they can lift a person’s spirit
and be the respites needed in between trials that may arise.
Wherever
we go and whatever we do, we’ll likely be faced with experiences we’d rather
forego. But as I mentioned in
yesterday’s blog, I like to think of those as opportunities to grow and expand
one’s personal horizons beyond what they thought possible. Additionally, I view the joys along life’s
journey as what provide resilience to make it through whatever life tosses my
way.
Whether
I’m struggling or soaring high on one of life’s finer moments, my aim is always
to remain as positive as I can.
Why? Because I’ve learned that’s
what makes life run smoother.
It’s
not often that we can change what is meant to come. Alter its course…? Possibly.
As such, I adopt the mentality to take a leap of faith off of life’s
more major cliffs. Usually, I’m not sure
if there’ll be a cushion to break my fall.
And in all honesty, I wouldn’t have it any other way. For to wait to ensure that everything is
lined up exactly as I think it should
go might mean I’ll miss some other opportunity—one I hadn’t considered.
