Every year, I start a long list of New Year's Resolutions.
Every year, I never do 80% of the list.
I ended up saying, "meh!! there's always next year."
But what I have learned in 2014 is that life is too short.
It was too short for my friend Wai.
For my Dad.
For my cousin Christopher.
Life is short.
And we have to start living it. I want to start doing the things that I want to do. That I always wanted to do. I don't want to be wasting my time at work. Getting stressed and having a coronary when I'm 40.
I want to be able to tell my children someday that I've done most of the thing that the would dream to do.
I'm sick of being in a secluded place 12 hours a day.
When I was 22, I made a list of things I wanted to accomplish by the time I turn 25. Then, when I turned 25 I made a list of things I wanted to accomplish by the time I turn 30.
Looking back, I can say I lived a pretty full life.
I have done a lot of travelling over the past decade. My passion hasn't disappeared at all. I'm gearing up to go to Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos sometime this year. And aloha, I'm going in Hawaii in September!
I'm always open to domestic travels as well. I enjoy driving along the coastline of the East Coast. I look towards the beach, listening to the waves crashing. Seeing the birds fly over the water and the surfers riding the waves like there is no tomorrow.
It makes me realize that living in the Gold Coast is a pretty good gig.
There are worse things in life and everyday I am thankful to be alive.
So today, as I start 2015, I will have to look after myself more.
- Stay healthy. Start running and eat healthy food.
- Cut back on smoking.
- Engage in a drinking session once a month only.
- Never forget to take vitamins daily.
- Go out and socialize once a week.
- Get rid of this super unhealthy crush.
- Try to find a new, cute guy and not go back to the losers that I used to date.
- Be a little bit more selfish and not let anyone take advantage of me.
So this is day one...
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
