"Feel-Better-About-Myself-In-All-Ways"

Lets get started!

Today is the start of "Feel-Better-About-Myself-In-All-Ways" *chuckles*

Small changes that will make me feel better about myself and my life, little things that really isn't much change from how it is now yet when this year is over I hope to be - not a "better" person, I want to be me. More of me.
Be proud of what I have done, proud of who I am and looking forward to whatever the future will throw my way - Knowing I will survive, I have people that care for me. People that won't judge me if I stumble or even if I fall.

I have learnt that I pressure myself way to much, especially with telling people things I want to try and do for myself - So I will not go in to specifics about WHAT I am going to do but I want to tell others I am giving myself the chance to be 'better' (I really dislike that term for this, but I can't think of a word that would convey what I want to say).

I have several goals for me to get to, some bigger than others but over all they will make me feel more content with myself and my place in this world. I have several things I need to work on within myself as well as thing about my appearance and things around me.

There will be challenges, there will come hardship and I'll want to throw everything out the window but that's when my partner gets to shake some sense back into me. *smiles* I am not doing this alone.

No more "Me against the world"! I am NOT alone.

One thing I did start over a month ago is my writing and I have over 21k words so far and a side story  of a couple of thousand words going right now. I took a 'break' over the holidays, I will NOT push myself with this. This is also something I do to feel better about myself - when I get comments, bookmarks and kudos that makes me feel better but it's not the reason I write, it's a great bonus though.

With that I will hope you all had a great holiday and that this new year will bring at least as much happiness as it might bring you sadness or hardship.

With love
Sam
