New Years Resolutions

This year has been a great one, it has its ups and downs but has overall been quality. On new years I was watching the ball drop in new york and waiting until the clock came to the time of 12:01 as most people were doing. When the year 2011 finnaly came I thought up a few resolutions.

One resolution being to keep all A's in every class with the exception of math which I can live with at least a B. This school year from started out good, but as it progressed I started to become sloppy and my grade started to show for it. Right when the new year came I realized how quickly this school year is going and now I have to really kick it into gear if I want to maintain my grades.

A resolution I really should have started a while ago was to spend more time with relatives. I realized that some of my older relatives don't have much time left until they pass and I need to spend time with them while they are still here. With that I noticed how fast life goes by and how you have to be thankful for the small things that happen. Enjoy life day by day and try not to let people get you down. Sometimes its best to just get away from all the stress and drama, such as going to a park and being in the calm brisk air. Thinking about how you have really lived your life to the fullest and what you have done to help society. If you haven't done anything yet this would be a perfect time to sit and think of what you could do to help people. You could start by volunteering and helping the homeless. Since you know the best feeling is when someone thanks you for the big bowl of chowder you have given them. This feeling could spark something else like say you could form a organization that goes and helps people in need. Then when you grow old you can pass all these storys to your children and grandchildren. They would do the same if you really inspired them on how to live your life. If you think about it our experiences really shape how the next generation will do things and what they will think about.

I found this video and I thought it was kinda interesting. Enjoy.
