NYR - New Year Resolutionssss



This happens to me every year. The last week of December and the first weeks of January are very stressful. I am stressed with anitcipation for the coming year. Hoping that atleast this year, I will be content. But, I still have to learn the definition of contentment.... but thats an entirely different story.

Now, I wanna talk about good things... like New Year Resolutions.

I know it is not a good thing for all, but it is for me. I love to make NYR and keep them. This gives me a sense of achievement. so, I decided to make 24 Resolutions. Then I thought... wow!!!
and came down to 12 which will be one for one month. So here they are...

1. Pursue my passion… to serve humanity in every way possible. – best way to do it is to volunteer.
2. Ponder on my dream – to become a talk show host.
3. Go to college – after I decide which major. I have a bachelors degree in Genetics and wanted to do research work. But you know ….. I also love fashion and aesthetics.
4. Be helpful to at least 3 people – there are so many I know that are struggling to achieve their dreams, or write a book, or just go to school. And I think I can be an interventionist.
5. Read a book a month. This will save me from starvation of my spirit and soul.
6. Be adventurous and spontaneous – have no idea what it will be, but will tell you at the end of the year.
7. Join two new associations and be an active member.
8. Eat healthy food. Have facial once a month.
9. Have a vision for life. Start writing my thoughts in a book and put them together at the end of the year to see what I actually want from life. Because life to is to lived to the fullest and worthy.
10. I should be a great impact on the world. Write a book, and start video blogging soon.
11. Diligently voice a cause. Still deciding which one it will be – Children with HIV, Kids sex trafficking, India : Population….
12. Support 2 charity or orphanage – One in India and the other in a different country.

And finally, I want to remind myself to ' DO NOT SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF'.

Chao for now

True friend... contd...

Yes... today, I recieved answer for my own question.
Today, I met a lady who was so sweet to me that she literally made me forget that we met for the first time. After meeting her, I realized that there are also people in this world who do not look for a benefit from everyone. Instead, offer their help in everyway possible. Even though she has gone through many hardships in her life, she did not stop smiling or help others.
This incidence made me think.... and now I have to take back what I wrote previously.

I came to a conclusion that we should help everyone without expecting anything in return.
But... do not be dismayed, as God will send help to you in a different way.

So, now I can start being my immature self again... hahaha.
love this life.
Chao for now.
