Cristal and Solo Cups

What am I getting myself into?  This really kicked my butt last time.  It felt good to get it done, but the last month was like the last mile of a marathon.  Over the last year I considered doing this again, but it always just fell by the wayside.  Somewhere in the back of my mind I think I planned to do it on the first of the year.

It’s with some trepidation that I’m starting this up again.  I don’t want to mail any of this in, but I know there’s always going to be days where I can’t get out.  I don’t want to be aimless in my musings, but I also know I can’t do a direct project every day for a whole year.

This picture was taken on New Years Eve 2014.  Most of us make resolutions to be better people in the coming year.  Most of us drop off by January, but I think that’s ok.  It’s important to take stock in ourselves, appreciate our strengths and acknowledge our shortcomings.    It’s important to take those first few steps towards change.  It’s a long road and can be overwhelming when you take it all in at once.  The important thing is to just keep moving, and its ok to fall, it just depends on what you do after.
