2008 coming to a close.

This has been a rough year...economy wise. I know I've had my share of stuggles, and my brother has been hit hard as well. But I look back and think of all the great things that came out of 2008. My other brother was married, I had a good friend married, and three different couples have announced that they are getting ready to have babies in 2009. At the end of the day, life goes on. I believe that we "humanity" still have an optimistic disposition and will help each other out. Maybe that's naive, but without hope, I simply don't seem why any of us would bother. So, as I approach 2009, I have my own optimistic outlook. I will have ups and downs I'm sure (probably when I hit the ole 3-0). But I have set goals for the new year. I am planning to go on a European vacation, I am going to keep looking for love :) , I'm going to take better care of my body and try to be healthy, but most of all, I will enjoy life. I was already dreading New Years Eve this year. I hate when the clock hits Midnight and there is noone there for me to kiss. But I reminded myself of what it brings....a New Year. A new beginning, a chance to start over, and a feeling that you can change your life if you want to. So wish me luck in 2009 and Happy New Year!
