Be mine: 2014

2013. At the start of this year I promised myself that things would be different, however here I am on December the 31st feeling that, to say the least, the year could have gone better. But I guess we have to learn from our mistakes and use them to make us stronger, because how else will we carry on?

A lot of people mock the idea that a new year holds the possibility of a ‘new you’. Maybe the notion is a little cheesy, but what does it matter? If the turning of the year means the belief in better why not let it?

This year, my New Year’s Resolution is simple; it is to be the best me I can be. I will work hard, I will love more: be kind and patient, I will participate and stop being afraid. Ida Scott Taylor wrote, ‘Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone; and do not be troubled by the future, for it has yet to come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering’, this is something I don’t want to forget.


So play your music ridiculously loud, act silly, and be brave. Make this year your best year yet. Dream big. Anything could happen. 2014.
