Optimistic

With it being 1/1/13 I am feeling optimistic. I always feel a little extra hopeful when the 'end' of something brings about a new beginning.

So, I'll not be wishing for a year better than the last..I remember distinctly considering this exact thing last year. So...I'm committing myself to a grattitude journal. A manual change in my perspective. While things continue to promise uncertainty, I promise faith. I choose discipline, prayer, effort and service.
There is always who's day is harder than mine. Always someone who's blessings are harder to see than mine.

So,  I'm feeling optimistic for 2013. The only thing I have control over is me...and that much, I intend to be better than last year.
