A wise quote from my mother, ”Oh the players change, but the game remains the same.” I’m sure my mom got that quote from her mom and so on, but the point is I completely understand what that quote means; in its entirety.
Here it is January 2011. The start of a NEW year. Where everyone can start over with a NEW beginning. Making NEW and better choices, right? Sure… if that is what you’d like to think. In reality, we’re still the same person we were 10 days ago (consider the date this was published). Yeah we grew a bit from the troubles and tribulations that creeped and pounced upon us during the year of 2010, but do you remember what you said December 31st 2010 right before the NEW year hit? It was all about resolutions and promises to yourself that you would: lose weight, lose the dead weight of a boyfriend or girlfriend, be a better person, or make better choices in your life for the New Year as a resolution.
The truth is you are the same person you were last year. Yeah, its 2011 and you can make an imperative decisions that will effect you positively long term, but what do you really want from the year of 2011? A better job, to go back to school and ACE your classes, spend more time with your child or children? How about go to the gym so you can lose a couple of pounds and get someME time in for the New year?
Well, I’m here to tell you that it is possible to make a change that will matter. Forget those fake resolutions that you tell everybody else, even to yourself, such as “I plan to leave Enrique alone because he don’t do nothing for the baby and I plan on making better decisions. Make some resolutions that count!
The reason I’m writing this blog, at this very moment is because I am thinking about a guy who did me bogus in the past. You name it and he’s probably done it; except for cheating because we never became official. Here it is aNEW year with a “new me” and I’m feeling a little of the heart break he caused me from last year because we hung out for a few of days here and there in 2011 and talked for a little bit, but now I haven’t heard from him in a couple of days. Should I worry? More than likely not. Should I move on with my life? Without a question! Should I get over it? Inevitably I will get over him. However, he is going to call me or text me or whatever it is guys do now-a-days to woo a woman in their half-ass way because we accept what we get and not get what we expect… and I’m going to want to talk to him again.
Guess 2011 isn’t as predictably as I thought it would be…. I wonder how other peoples year is starting off…
