The last year went by without as much as a glitch. No, really, that’s what I call a blatant lie. It was hiccups all the way, actually. But they have all stopped and I can pause for five seconds and just smile as I reflect. The rain has dried up, and the sun is out to heat up my cheeks.
I was all things in 2010 – a temperamental freak, a great lover, a wonderful friend, a pain, and still – a success. I did not achieve many things I set out to make mine; however, I maintain that God played fair…
Laziness and procrastination must have had a productive meeting when they colluded and clung on my back. My tongue didn’t hold out enough to gather more saliva; it was always in a hurry to utter that which my mind entertained. Subsequently, pointless grudges were unfortunately formed against me. My honesty gained me life-long friends but pushed away new ones faster than I can spell holiday.
It was not a wasted year: I got a new job, I filled up one page of my passport, I increased the number of times I have flown, I took more walks, I temporarily took up running, and I never quit discovering myself.
All in all, survival is the main thing, and I did more than that. I pulled off a great leap into 2011.
