When bed bugs bite

Supposedly at 1.15am on a Monday night one is supposed to be asleep.

Supposedly.

I'm not. I've opened the door wide open to a few of my 2009 demons and various skeletons and they are all having a party in my brain preventing me from sleeping peacefully and resting up for tomorrow's inevitable alarm clock.

Not only do they mess up your life once, but they keep coming back twisting it a little bit more just in case you didn't feel it the first time around.

It's what new year usually does...
I know I've said I'm not a fan of new year resolutions, but inevitably you think about all that happened and how you could change some things and advance a step forward in the road called "happiness" in life.

I've noticed some people don't question themselves whatsoever, ever, and blame others with the greatest ease. They like to preach. They like to come through as protectors. As the wise. They will look down on you and say ; "yes, now that you have sunk so low, you will realise things and change. Your life will improve. Some of us reach a low point in life and you my friend, you have reached that point. The lowest! But I'm here to help you understand! You can thank me (after I've blown your self esteem into pieces) that I've helped you improve your life. You will thank me ! (cause whatever you may say, I know you better than you know yourself)....

They do say though that if you can't act... Preach... So I guess one should rise above the little things, act wise and give those people the importance they seek. Although pretending is being dishonest, maybe we have to cheat at times...

Deep thoughts at a deep time of night. I hope many of you are sleeping and actually not get to read this as I will probably regret the posting first thing in the morning when i'll feel all cheery again.

Good night void...

A new page

The new year is here since midnight.
While many of you were probably too drunk and merry to start drawing new pictures on these blank pages, others have already started lining up their new year projects and act out their lives for the year to come.

As for me, I had a true Bridget Jones moment as I toasted the new year, surrounded by loving smooching couples and with it, the train ride of hell to come back and sleep on th new good resolutions. Bad start to the year - fabulous continuation... Isn't that what they say ? Anyhow, whether it's true or not, I intend it to be. At the end of the day it's all about self-persuasion so, a little bit of "I believe", a little bit of hard work and a lot of vodka-martini's and everything is possible.

I'm not a big believer in New Year Resolutions. I find it to be a mockery. As if we have to wait until December 31st of each year to tell ourselves, and everyone around us for that matter, all the wrong we've done, all the right we could have done, what we always wanted to do but couldn't and plan to do in the new year ahead and bla bla bla... If we really believe in something and if we truly want to achieve it, being within our possible reach, we can do it anytime and not wait until the midnight beat of the clock that will change a yearly figure to do so. New Year resolutions involve too much postponing.

Anyway, after a somewhat disappointing end of 2009 and an lame start to 2010 thanks to the French transport system, I wish for the new year to continue fabulously for everyone. We all deserve the best and in return, we must make the most of what we have and what is given to us and give kindness and respect in return. The world is crappy enough at times without us adding misery to it, don't you think ?

So, have a great January 1st (and happy birthday to my mom)

Another year is ending...

... And a new one is starting fresh.

Some people look at the New Year as a blank page to start writing new adventures on. As a better continuation of what has been over the past 12 months. New resolutions are taken. Past patterns are broken. New projects are started. Our lives take a whole new meaning as the clock strikes twelve !

Have you ever wondered what this all means ? What a "new start" actually means... If we're to be realistic, it's quite impossible to erase what was and start anew. If we've messed up, we've messed up. Learning from our mistakes is a good start, but fixing it, not always a possible thing. Some people won't forgive and don't forget. There's not much we can do about that other than close our eyes on it and continue walking on the path of life looking for new possibilities and try to mess them up as little as humanly possible.

New Year
New day
New opportunities
Old demons locked up and kept away
New encounters
New possibilities...

Wishing you all a very Happy beginning to the Year 2010

New Year Resolution

It's that time of year again and each year it's the same tune playing over and over again like a scratched record.
- What is your New Year resolution this year?
- I don't have one.
- Well, maybe this year your resolution should be to make a New Year’s resolution!

New Year's Day: Now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions. Next week you can begin paving hell with them as usual. ~Mark Twain

A new year comes changing a digit to the existent one. We leave another behind us and with it we leave events, broken loves or friendships, mistakes, learned knowledge, general life history and what we sometimes all hope for, a few extra kg.

While some people look forward to the New Year for a new start on old habits, others see it as a blank page full of new opportunities. A time to make amends in our professional lives, personal lives and in the lives of others. A time to do what we haven't done the year before. A time to make up for past mistakes. A time to get closer to people we've drifted away from or let them go and start anew. A time to realize and try to find our strengths and our weaknesses and see what it is that makes us who we are.

We spend January 1st walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives, not looking for flaws, but for potential.
A year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.

We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day. ~Edith Lovejoy Pierce

If there is one resolution I will be making, and try always to keep, it will be this: To rise above the little things…
