For some time now I have been purging what is not conducive to my happiness; within myself as well as the world around me. Each one of us has those hangups we desperately try to rid our lives of.
We hang on to every word, every broken heart, every pain that leads us to a life of fear and strife. But this year I was going to make even more of a conscious effort to change those things.
Our homework for @missy @rambo @charmaine @lyxzen is our New Years resolution. When I saw the homework I realized it wasn't so much a resolution as an evolution. I have been dedicated to becoming the person I can truly be, but this year is about really applying my efforts and lessons.
On Wednesday morning I woke expecting to workout at home, since my dance studio is closed, and getting ready for another day of errands and work. Instead my intrigue was spiked by a text from a co-worker. She was packing for LA and dreading the drive. I wasn't sure if this was an invite or a vent, but I decided to test the waters anyway. It was in fact an invite.
A few hours later her, her roommate, and I were heading to the beach. We decided to make it a three day road trip Southern California excursion. I was a little nervous, since I haven't met the roommate and barely know my co-worker. But I have been needing to open myself up more and learn how to accommodate other peoples needs a bit more comfortably. I also really needed the drive to reflect, and what better time to reflect on life then the first day of a new year.
As the trip ended this morning (and too quickly I might add) I was basking in the glow of it's perfectness. It was just what I needed and was the most dedicated start to my life changing goals.

Waking up in the back of my car on New Years Day! The black mound in the back is actually my co-worker haha
What were your resolutions? And what did you do to celebrate?
