Here We Go
So, another year begins. I really hope 2012 is better than last year — for me, for my family, for you, for everyone. 2011 was fucked up. This year I hope to get a handle on my depression. One thing I need to remember, and that I’ve learned from The Bloggess, is that depression lies to you. It tells you bad things, things that aren’t true, things that will hurt you down to your core. I have to remember that those feelings are real, but they’re not TRUE. Do you know what I mean?
This year I hope to improve my skating, although it is getting more difficult each year. I’m really starting to feel my age. Today I went back to boot camp in an effort to improve my fitness level and to lose some much-needed weight. Right now I’m so sore I’m kind of embarrassed.
I also hope to stay more connected to my friends this year, as well as make new connections in my life. I need a new adventure, one that I hope will lead me to what I’ve been looking for.
What do you hope for this year?
