Goals and planning
So...just a couple of months ago, I was in some cheap hotel, out of town, in an unfamiliar place, both emotionally and physically, ready to throw in that towel. I was frustrated, scared as hell, and just downright tired. I could of been tired because of my clean diet, but who knows. So I'm celebrating new years, with my girlfriend and her family, having the time of my life, despite being in a hotel room that I'd honestly wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole. It wasn't dirty or anything, just the ...
I'm always amazed at all of the news reports about people deciding to make their New Years Resolutions and within a week or a month they have forgotten all about them.

I sit here and I just can't help but giggle to myself on how funny life can be. Things really do come full circle sometimes. It's almost uncanny how that is, to be honest. So I sign in to my facebook and I have a private message.
