I don’t really believe in New Year’s resolutions, but I’ve started to think about some of my goals for this next year. Moving to a new city and beginning a new job means I’m really at a turning point in my life in terms of what I value, how I spend my time, etc. I want to grow in the areas of authenticity and compassion this year. I’m guilty of getting caught up in the immediate, and placing goals and work before relationships. I want to shift that and live a bigger, smaller life by ridding myself of clutter and stress, and focusing on what’s really important. I also want to extend more grace towards myself and others. Above all, I want God’s love to change the way I look at myself.

I’ve decided that 2008 is the year of following my dreams. A week from today I move to LA to do just that. Realistically, I’m probably not ready for this. I have a lot of growing that I want to do as a person, and I wish I had life a little more figured out first. But, I’m also the type of person who can’t stand to wonder about life’s what-ifs. I hope I discover ecstatic joy that I recognize. I hope to create a life that resembles me. I hope I am more gracious towards myself, and less afraid of failure. We’ll see how it goes.
