The New Year Is Almost Here !
Christmas is tomorrow....and the New Year is right around the corner....and I'm anxiously awaiting it.
No, I'm not a hum-bug....I Love Christmas and all that it involves. In fact today I will be going over to my son's house to spend Christmas Eve and day with him and his family. A great wife and their two adorable, although rumbustious, boys. Michael is 5, and I call him "Mud Man" cause he loves dirt and mud. He used to make mud angels when he was 3...just like Shrek. Sean is 2....we call him Chunk-a-munk, because he is. And we will spend the evening baking cookies and playing games.....and Christmas day opening presents...laughing....taking pic's.....and loving our time together. It will be a Great Day!
And then it will be the Day After Christmas! And everything will be quiet. And the anticipation and excitement for Christmas Day will have blown all away.....leaving memory in it's place. Which is good, for good memories make us strive to create more.
And some of us will say "Boy, I'm glad that's over!" And some of us will be sad that it's over.
I will be a little of both.....Why, you ask? ( or, maybe you didn't)
BECAUSE 2014 IS GOING TO BE GREAT!
I spent 2 years of my life thinking I would not be around long. So all the things I was interested in and striving to accomplish went by the way-side.... And I surrounded and embraced the people in my life that I love dearly.....because that is what really matters.
Now, being in remission.....I feel I have time to embrace ME! And all that I love to do and want to accomplish......WA being one of them. Yes, it's important to be a presence in your loved one's lives....and to let them know how much they mean to you. because you never know when your time will be up. But it's also important to embrace yourself and your own life. Because "You Too Are Important".
So....Yes!.....I am excited! I am going to ROCK 2014! I am going to be a little more stingy with my time for others.....I am going to ignore the eye-rolling because they don't understand Internet Marketing.....I am going to Create .....And enjoy every minute of it!
ONWARD AND UP!
Have a GREAT CHRISTMAS and a UNBELIEVABLY SUCCESSFUL NEW YEAR!
