I don’t like resolutions. In fact, I really don’t like New Years (or Valentine’s Day for that matter). Too many bad nights in over priced bars or restaurants over the years in forced merriment with hundreds of intoxicated strangers. But what I do like about January 1st is the sense of “starting anew” – that clean mental slate that absolves you of the guilt from the past 5 weeks of holiday excess, the gym you haven’t visited in months, the people and places you didn’t see, and the resolutions you broke. What I do know is that I started to really find contentment towards the end of 2010. I am finally finding that balance in my home life, personal life, and career. I finally found work that excites me and makes me want to be a better person! Balance is GOOD! Balance has been MISSING for a long time for me. and its soooooo good to have it back. Here’s to everyone finding balance and contentment in 2011. Happy New Year everyone!
