There is only one day left in 2011. Think about that. Let it really sink in. That means in about 24-ish hours, it will be 2012. That means that I will be that much closer to graduation and starting a new life as a young adult. And it also means a whole new year to do things right and not to screw this year up. A time for renewal and reinventing yourself and trying to become a better person. It's time to say goodbye to the old and hello to the new. Time to let go of things that have been holding us back in 2011 and be free and liberated in 2012.
Time to get rid of the bad things and habits that have been plaguing you this entire year. I, for one, am trying to leave things behind me that I don't need. I'm going to try to leave behind the hurt from this year and all the insecurities that have been bothering me my entire life. I'm dedicating this year to reinventing myself and doing a major personality overhaul. There's some things that I have been holding onto that have been detrimental to my success and maturity as a person and I'm gonna let all of that go in the next 24 hours. I'm starting fresh this year. I don't want anything holding me back as I move into the next stage of my life. I'm ready for change. I'm tired of the same old stuff haunting me and following me throughout my life. Quite frankly, I'm sick of it. And the final semester of my senior year is the perfect time to get rid of it all. I can't have that kind of stuff with me as I get ready to head off to college and be on my own.
I'm gonna do some major soul searching in the next 24 hours and decide what I need to leave in 2011 and what I can carry over to 2012. But, one thing I know for certain is that something's got to give. And I'm the only one that can create that change in my life to be able to better myself. No one is going to put a gun to my head and force me to change. I have to be the one that wants to do that. And I'm so ready for it. Have been for years, I had just been so caught up that I didn't even realize it. I need to stop being so safe and be more out there. Life is not going to wait for me to catch up, and if I continue to drag my feet, life is going to end up passing me by and I don't want that to happen.
So, 2012 is an opportunity to come into the year, a new person, a better person. And I'm not going to waste this opportunity like I have so many years past. Because if there's one thing I've learned in 2012 is that life is short and you should never waste any opportunity to better yourself and live life because you'll never know when that day will be your last.
