Ed

It's been a while since I've had alcohol. I'd say I'm not sure why but I kinda know. I only drink when I'm happy for one (not to say that I haven't been happy, but it's still a factor), and I've had real problems with acid reflux recently and I'm trying to keep my throat for as many years as I can :p Anywho, tonight is a good night and it deserves the celebration. Did anything happen? No. Has my life changed in some drastic way? Not really. You see, I'm a fan of New Years resolutions, and after much deliberation I've decided what this years will be. To love life to it's fullest. It's hard to say how or why, but I've really fallen from where I was last year in terms of happiness. I want that back. I've already made some incredible strides so far. So here I am, drinking my amaretto sour, listening to the Avett Brothers, looking forward to tomorrow. Because while today is an awesome day, Tomorrow is another chance to be equally awesome or even better. I love my life, my friends, my family, everything.

Love

Love is something I feel called to. When I read through the Bible, love is what I see everywhere. I see love as the ultimate goal God calls us to. We're to love our neighbor as ourself. The ultimate commandment. So love is what I need to work on more. Last year I had it down to an art, but I kinda fell. I want to love everyone. I want everyone to know I love them. This is my focus right now.
