Making Life Better in the New Year

As the *new year approches, it seems (to me) even easier to get lost in feelings of wonder and self-doubt. Sometimes I find it hard to believe that I am an **adult---with a child, a "wife" and a serious career.

Oh my God---what happened..? In any case, as adults, we look forward and we keep moving...but...

Why do we forget about the things that make us who we are?

The lucky ones (like me!) have chosen and progressed in a career that they are completly satisfied with. Perhaps, a family and enough to keep them waking up in the morning. But if you could do anything in the world, what would it be? I guess, the ultimate question of this holiday rant is:

what would make your life, a deliriously happy life?

So I end my post with a list of (completely selfish) things that I would like to include in the next year. I hope eveyone else does the same.

• More music (making & appreciating)
• More art/ fashion/culture
• getting out more (which previous list-items require!)
• deliberate exercise
• more social/family types of interaction. (Being the host would be nice.)
• Helping others

* the "New Year" isn't nearly as important as the 364 days that follow.
** often my partner refers to me as her "third child"

Of course, my next year will probably be much too busy to do many of these things--but hey--there's always the following year.
