9Havent been so negative for a while now. But im still thankful for friends as old as gold.
2016 resolutions:
1. Reflect on yourself before reflecting on what others did.
Dont be impatient, you never were but remember that too, when circumstances are less than ideal.
Remember that when you're tired, remember that when you are running out of patience, and remember that patience is indeed, a virtue.
Dont be quick to judge, quick to hate and quick to love. Give everything a chance, a chance to prove their worth before deeming it unworthy.
And please please please, remember not to compare. Comparison is a thief of joy. Please be happy. You know what you want, and you know you can get it. Dont settle for anything less than what you want, thinking that it'll change for the better. It doesnt.
2. Find happiness within yourself.
Dont build your happiness on others, and dont build on happiness on things. This way, you wont be reliant on anything but yourself. Take pride in little things you do, celebrate little things that happened in your day and surround yourself with people you love. Life is too short to do otherwise.
3. Fight to hold on, and fight to let go.
You know for awhile things havent been great. Think about what you want for this year and the following years after. Think of the long term from 2016 onwards. Dont be selfish, dont let things drag, and dont assume/ expect. If you know something is not gonna change, it is not gonna change no matter how long you wait.
4. Make informed choices/ decisions.
23 now. Probably time to not let emotions cloud your judgment/ decisions.
Take grandmother's tales with a pinch of salt, believe in what you believe. You cant please everyone.
5. Remind yourself to never be narrow minded.
You always knew studying makes you one. Now you know being too focused on one thing you so believed in and wanting to possess it will make you lose focus of other available choices. Widen your horizons, perhaps you'll find something more.
2015 wasnt that great a year but i'm still thankful for good friends, loving family and smooth sailing(?) uni.
I hope 2016 will be aweballz.
