Finally...


After about 20 years of carrying around this fictional story in my head, 2013 will finally serve as the year of its release.   

 

Glen Willow - the backdrop behind the growth of two youths; the challenges into maturity; the tragedies of life; the yearning of love; the strength of forgiveness.  We all have big changes in our lives that are more or less a second chance. What we do with it is up to us.

Hello 2013 -- A New Day






As I sit here early this New Years morning and reflect a little bit on 2012, I see a heck of a lot of challenges and changes that I encountered throughout the year. Some were expected, some not so expected, and others that blindsided me so swiftly, that they even changed the course of my directions. Yet through it all, at least at this particular moment, I'm still here. 

 

Not only that, but my optimisms and passions still remain in tact. It's called Faith. Although in the coming year of 2013 I know many things that I want to do, I also understand that there's no promise that even those things are going to come through. But that won't stop me from keeping on pushing through. Because if nothing else I've learned in 2012, I was definitely reminded to expect the unexpected. And because of that, I've found that I am 365 times stronger than I was this time last year. Therefore, just like Alfred Morris, if I see any indication of an open hole, I'm dashing through that joint. And with each play I take, each yardage I make will take me closer to the goal. 

 

So farewell 2012... thanks for the lessons and memories. Hello 2013... Kato's coming. Bring it on!!!!
