I began my year on vacation visiting friends that make me feel good about myself.

I also began by beginning counseling yesterday. I really like my counselor, and feel very blessed that I lucked out on the first try with one that I truly believe a. can help me, and b. won't judge me.

I, further, began by beginning a new lifestyle to include healthy eating and exercise. Today began the healthy eating, and so far so good! Exercise begins tomorrow when I can, hopefully, have more time due to not needing to grocery shop after work.

I am determined to get healthy, body, mind, heart and soul this year. I want to move into my 40's when they come, a new woman, full of promise, who is comfortable in her skin.

I want to learn many things this year. I want to learn..what I want, what I like, who I am, and who I want to be. A large goal, to be sure. But I want to go into my future without the baggage of childhood dragging me down anymore. I want to be a responsible human who can own her own problems and successes, and continue to grow, always.

I don't really know what has spurred these goals, but for the first time in a LONG time, I'm motivated, and I've learned not to question that too much .
