Once Upon a December

I don't know if it's because of the time of year or because I am so looking forward to the new year that I am feeling overwhelmingly nostalgic. I am sitting here thinking back on this past year and trying to will myself to not cry - a mixture of happy and sad tears. I was so hopeful for a good 2012 this time last year that I think I forgot to actually sit back and enjoy the year.

I combination of wonderfulness and crap filled my year. My 2012 was a roller coaster that I don't ever want to ride again. It was the worst year in recent memory - actually I think it was the worst year ever for me personally. I had such wonderful moments that lifted me up and filled me with such joy, but to think that those moments were so few and far between, I have a hard time remembering them.

But the one thing I have to keep in mind for 2013, is that the past is the past. I have such a hard time letting stuff go sometimes that I forget thinking about my past will only make me live there longer. I have to learn from the crappiness of my 2012 and make my 2013 so awesome that nothing else matters. I have to keep in mind that right now I am the only one that can my life better.

So Happy New Year fellow readers!
