This is your year...
Over the past two weeks I have been seriously contemplating everything that has been going on in the world and in my own life. Over the past year I have moved and gotten a new job, had new opportunities shown to me and missed out on some. I have made new friends and lost some. I've been through some rough patches and have floated on cloud nine. But the thing that strikes me most about the past year is how people keep on keepin' on.
I think I speak for us all when I say that the past year has be a tumultuous one. We have all endured hardships, whether it be personal, professional, or financial and I am amazed that people are still moving forward. Human kind as a whole has made it a social responsibility to keep on living for the sake of humanity.
And in saying this we are each responsible for how the next year treat us. We have the choice to break down the door of opportunity or just wait for it to knock. We can each free ourselves from our limitations. For me this means being more creative and doing something each day that I am passionate about. It means knowing that my friends are my family here in San Francisco, and treasuring each moment I spend with them. And finally, it means being a proud supporter of the local artistic community and the people that live and work in the city.
I have decided not to make a general resolution this year because I know it takes conscious decisions everyday to make change happen. I'm determined to create the year that I want. I wont wait for anyone or anything to make me happy. I will make myself happy.

I will make 2009 my year.
