2008 - The Best Year

I have already decided that 2008 will be the best year so far of my forties. How can it not be? Turning forty wasn't so much hard as confusing. It made me really evaluate my life and where I was at and if it was where I wanted to be. Sometimes the answer was yes and sometimes the answer was no but most of the time the problem was the answer was I didn't know. I was never someone who had a plan or direction or a dream. I just dealt with each day as it came along. When my forties started I thought I need a plan, I need direction, I need a dream. And then I went racing around trying to make it all happen. It was crazy making. I was trying to change people and things to fit this new vision. Most of the time it blew up in my face. I am done with all that. I am just fine. Without a plan. Without a direction. Without a dream. Instead I have decided to go back to just enjoying and experiencing each day as it comes along. I have set some goals for myself this year. And they are all manageable. I have no need to change anything around me. I am much happier already. It has been a great year so far.
