“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language And next year’s words await another voice.” - T.S Eliot

I’m keeping most of my “resolutions” to myself, however, I have a few overall goals for the year that I thought I’d share ; eating cleaner, moving more, exploring (both inside and out), and peace. 2012 was not my best year for numerous reasons not worth going into, but it was also the year that gave me much clarity ; about myself and the world around me. I have high hopes + expectations for ‘13…let’s do this!

Things I will never* understand :

  • People who over share via social media, public places, life. This includes the people who so overtly share their political opinions with dramatic flair…
  • Why it is SO hard for certain people to text back when the ones you don’t really want to text you back do so quickly…
  • Why my dog has to go out 987 times a day for approx 3 seconds each time…
  • Why I never really listened to Coldplay “back in the day” + I’m thoroughly obsessed with them now…
  • Why Adobe software is SO expensive…

*Never doesn’t really mean “never”…just right now. Or foreseeable future.
