Happy New Year

I am sitting in my living room watching Anderson Cooper in CNN. In about half and hour ticks of the clock on my wall will usher us into a new year. I am muttering under my breath as what the year ahead of us will most likely bring into my life. I casually set New Year resolutions as I am afraid to admit that I can’t fulfill them. My resolutions aren’t worth a wooden nickel in a fire once the year throws a curve ball in my side. Last year I set goals that I wanted to achieve .I am proud to say that I have fulfilled some while others I have miserably failed. I was blessed to graduate on time and find myself a temporary employment with an energy company in Atlanta Georgia. After living almost a decade in the USA I was proud to receive my American citizenship. My procrastination was purely based on my unwillingness to pay the four hundred dollars application fee. My family thought I was lost in my own paranormal daze. I thought I could get away without paying for my application. I never did. I had to cough the money. I set a goal of visiting Africa, but unfortunately I was not able to do it due to various reasons that were beyond my control. As I breathe hard while writing these words I can smell a reminder of failed goals on my last year resolutions. As I dart off into the New Year celebration parties I couldn’t come up with any resolutions for next year. I would let my life take its own course. Happy New Year to Y'all bloggers
