It starts with having a blog again.
Never Assume; New Year’s blog
Should 2013
hand its left-overs like a wannabe fancy restaurant, the lesson “Never Assume”
would of came with me into the new year wrapped in a swan like shape of tin
foil. It would of also probably came in quite a large amount, enough to feed a
whole family, because certainly 2013 made this lesson quite clear.
Honestly,
looking at the New Year at this time last year I was hoping for things to
settle after moving into a new quieter home. Picking your home is nothing light;
I think it should always be the one thing in your life you know will be there, warm
and friendly. And the pleasure here is, once you picked your home – you have to
hope the owner picked you. Folks, don’t fall in love until you’ve signed the
lease.
My irony here
is that once home was finally quiet and calm ; the rest of everything swung
into chaotic mode. Grab on to your balls boys, this is going to be a bumpy
ride.
Don’t assume,
but also be thankful. Mostly we should be thankful for each day that we get to
live in health. It’s pretty clear should you have followed my year where my
thoughts are on health, but if all you got is the sniffles, I would say that’s
pretty great.
Don’t assume
anything is forever. The sturdiest jobs, marriages or whatnots can fall. It’s
the part of life that keeps you awake, it always feels like a brick wall, and
it will heal, in time. Everything takes time, surround yourself within the
people and hobbies you love and let that be a great bandaid. Hashtag : Friends
& Family
Grimside over
and done, I got to see some great things throughout the year. The soul of New
Orleans was simply astonishing. Louisiana has a gripping history, it overtakes
you just like its friendly locals. Hashtag : Southern Hospitality.
Also got to
drop onto the Queen’s Land, London busy and hectic left for great seaside suburbs
where the pace of life is much more similar to that of the Caribbean, but with
a northern “Its not always sunny here” tone. Serenity.
And on to
2014; Traveling early in the year and then planning on a break to save up to go
bigger. Hopefully I can stick to it, I’m obviously addicted in discovering.
Make new
friends, Keep up with old friends, Take opportunities, they don’t always come
twice.
Take things
as they come, prepare a Plan B but know to see what happens, as only one thing
can be assumed, the road is never completely straight and flat.
