Ready or Not

Nathan & I went to Christmas in the park before leaving San Jose. I was supposed to blog about it, plus Christmas and a whole list of things, but finals and life got the better of me & no entries. Sorry about that. Maybe I'll get to it later. I'm not making any promises.

I keep looking at the fact that it's January 1, 2010 and I still can't process the information. 2009 just past. What to say, what to say? I graduated high school and started college. I've completely been erased from people's lives and I've made my way into others' lives. I've learned so much and I know absolutely nothing. 2009 has been filled with ups and downs, and many experiences that I'm not sure what to make of. Despite all the polar opposites, 2009 was a pretty good year.

If I only learned one thing in 2009 it's this, no matter how temporary relationships with other people are, the ones who love me will stick.
Life is short. I have no problem admitting that. Life is short. Tell people how you feel because tomorrow they may disappear. If you died tomorrow, would you be happy with the way you lived your life?

Whether you're ready or not, 2010 is here.

So here's to 2010. (20-10 is supposed to be the correct way of stating it). May 2010 bring just as many, if not more life lessons than 2009. May it bring great friendships and life-changing experiences. May it bring exactly what each & every one of us needs in our life. May it cause us to live life to the fullest and take advantage of every opportunity we get.
