Alright, so Im not much into making new years resolutions..but..I do think it is time for me to set some new goals in my life. First, a quick recap on what I feel I have accomplished in 2008:
-Graduated college (although I am starting to miss the classroom).
-Fell even more in love with my husband.
-Grew closer to my Savior.
-Started working full time.
-Bought a house.
-Lost 15 lbs (only 13 more to go!)
-Started running (never thought I could get past a mile without getting fat kid pains- now thanks to my sister's encouragement, I am up to 3-4 daily).
-Became a morning person.
-Learned a little more about cooking.
Now what I hope to accomplish in 2009:
-Become more selfless by putting other's needs before my own.
-Read the sunday school and relief society lessons beforehand so that I can be more involved in the discussions and feel the spirit more throughout the week.
-Lose the 13 lbs I have left.
-Paint the rest of the rooms in our house. Sorry Greg, I guess this is your goal too :)
-Don't worry so much about the future and enjoy the time I have right now with Greg, my family, and friends.
-Give thanks.
I guess I am just realizing that I have alot I need to work on. Life is too short to not do the things you want to, or the things that may seem silly (running through the sprinklers, having a Dr. Mario competition, fingerpainting) spend time with the people you love, and give thanks for what you have, right? I am so incredibly blessed and I don't know why. But I do know that I need to see what I have and use it in a way to bless the lives of others. I am truly inspired by all the people around me that give so much of their time, energy, things to uplift those around them, raise children, comfort their grown-up children, help those who are in need, and support the church. I kow I need to be more like them.
Anyway, sorry to ramble on and on, Im just seeing alot of things that I need to improve in my life.
