Milestones

it's a whole new year. new chances to start over and that much closer to figuring out where i'm going, what i want, who i am. same post, different day.

this last year...especially the fall, was extremely difficult for me. got yet another concussion, lost my dog, lost my grandfather, and dealt with another failed relationship attempt. i like to think of myself as careful and guarded enough to make the right decision and take the necessary time and steps to think things through. that should set me up for more success right? yeah, i've proven that extremely wrong. I didn't want to ever think that i could be pigeon holed into a certain mold...but lately i feel like i have. it's like everyone has an assumption of what kind of person i am and how i hold myself. i've spent the first couple days of the new years thinking about everything i want to change...only to realize the overwhelming difference between wants and needs.

so now the question is...what do i need to do...what do i need to change...what do i need to be.
