And with very little effort, the new year begins.
I saw a post on Instagram that said, "Page 1 of 365." It's not a new concept, having chapters in your book of life, but for some reason the thought of each day being a page made me think. I mean, 365 pages isn't just a chapter, that's an entire book. Maybe not a massive, in depth book, but an Agatha Christie at least. Maybe even a Jane Austen! Each year of your life is a book. That's a concept I can get behind. It makes a year feel more important to the overall tome of your life.
So my hopes for the new book. Last year's book was not the happiest, so let's make this book a bit happier. Let's draw more, and read more, and internet less, and appreciate the fact that I have a job I don't hate. Let's try to maintain the healthier weight a certain parasite helped us get to. Let's go to Chicago. Let's find affordable housing. Let's pay off debts. And let's not be too hard on ourselves when we fail at everything we hoped we'd do in 2015.
Happy New Book!
