I’ve been debating how much I want to talk about 2005. In many ways, it was a painful year. There were highlights, of course. [livejournal.com profile] kitanzi and I spent half of February honeymooning in England, I got to visit New York City for the first time, and we celebrated our first wedding anniversary and fourth couples anniversary. I developed a much closer romantic relationship with [livejournal.com profile] aiela, which brought me joy, and cultivated an intimate and satisfying friendship with [livejournal.com profile] klrmn.

On he downside, I spent much of the second half of the year fighting off depression, much of it wrapped up in a specific single issue that ultimately was not resolved satisfactorily. In the process, I learned a lot of useful things about myself, and a lot of things I wish I hadn’t about someone else, leaving me ultimately more disappointed than I was with the outcome of the issue.

Between myself and [livejournal.com profile] kitanzi, we had a lot of medical issues, the most major of course being her shoulder surgery in November. I’m still working to get a handle on my blood pressure. We started and then faltered on a fitness plan, partly due to various infirmity, but mostly on my part due to my depression.

My task for 2006 is to take the good stuff above with me, while leaving the bad behind. I will make my 2006 be a year of light and love and joy and hope and promise, for myself and all of those I care about. How’s that for a New Year’s resolution?

Forward.

Sounds like an excellent resolution and something I plan to do for myself as well. Forward instead of always looking back. It's a good thing, I think.

Absolutely! In fact, I should have listed becoming closer to you and [livejournal.com profile] abovenyquist and reconnecting with [livejournal.com profile] curiousmay9 up there in the Good Stuff section of this post.

I normally don't believe in New Year's resolutions but this is one I like the sound of!!!

This is generally my goal too, but it's so easy to get off track :).

I love your sense of wonder. One of my favourite things about you is the joy you take in just being alive, and the way you focus that light on the people in your life. I wish for you that you remember that and bring it back into your life, and that however it manifests for you that it be healthy and positive and ultimately lead you to be at peace with yourself.

*hugs* I am honored to be a part of your 2006, as I've been honored to be part of the last ten-ish years. I'm always here for me if you need me. *hugs*
