February One

Holy Cow, how is it possibly Feb 1st, 2012 already?!?
It doesn't seem possible that a full month of the new year has already gone by.
     Yesterday I was looking back on January 2012 thinking,
"What did I want to get done this month?" Did I get it done?"
"What am I proud of this month?"
"How did I take a step closer to my dreams this month?"
"How do I feel about Jan '12?"
"Did I begin 2012 strong?"

Answering these questions is kinda depressing...
- I don't know really, I wanted to map out 2012. Probably not, not really.
- I'm proud that.... well?
- I don't know if I did.
- Fine. Annoyed that it's already gone.
- Nope, guess not. :)

Overall, I think Jan '12 was a happy month. The beginning of a new year always brings in extra energy and new found goals. And of course, I have some new goals myself. Some make me feel lazy cuz they seem so far away; others scare the crap out of me, cuz I don't know where that desire came from. Some parts of life have gotten comfortable and cozy, while others are still prickles in our butt. I've been in great thought over how I would like to see 2012 go. What do I want? to do? be? and create? I don't feel like I've got all the answers yet, but I do feel like January was a big preparation month.
