2014…I can tell
you what is different this year as compared to the last two years; I have a
job. Both 2012 and 2013 started with me being jobless. Both years started with
me being a complete couch potato. I think these are the periods I gained
weight.
I guess it’s
only fair to say I like how the year has started (read I have a job). This is
my last day bumming before I go back to work and what better way to spend it
than working on what I have been postponing. I have been avoiding the thought
of 2014 and what I want and hope to achieve before it comes to a close.
I want this blog
to be the place I admit…mostly to myself….that I am scared. Scared that I might
hope and end up wanting badly to actualize those hopes and it does not happen.
You must think I am a big sissy but I am just being honest. The problem with
life is that there is no rewind button and I am scared of the year ending
without being where I hoped I would be.
Despite the
fact; I would hate to be a slave to my fears. I will take the plunge in the
deep end (I can’t swim) and hope I won’t drown.
I want 2014 to
be the year I hit solid ground with my career. Feels like that part of my life
has been uncertain for far too long. I want out of that uncertainty. It is very
unsettling. I am just praying for the courage to shut out that little voice in
my head that creeps up and holds me back from reaching my full potential.
I want to go
back to school this year. I have no idea how this will happen but am told I
should have faith. I will just leave this one to the Almighty. I will ask him
to figure that one out for me. I want to start a side hustle this year. I am
still researching on it but I pray it works out. It’s time I started working on
making my money work for me.
My relationship
with God is not what it used to be. I can feel it and I can’t really tell when
things changed but they did. I want to go back to where it was or even better.
It’s been a minute since I went to church. Do I miss it? Maybe….I don’t know. I
will work on that…baby steps.
2014 started
well for him and when he is happy then I am happy. This year will define his
career and I pray it goes as he hopes it will. As far as my love life is
concerned; 2014 is another year to grow this beautiful relationship and I am
grateful for that.
I hope I get to
have lots of fun with both friends and family this year. I hope 2014 will be
filled with love, good health, success and blessings and not just for me but
for all of you and all my loved ones. I pray for the courage to take on this
year.
2014….bring it
on!
