My evolution resolution starts NOW!

Last week, I was told I had to leave the place I have been renting and move out in three months.  It was nice of my landlord to give me an extra month than what was stated in the lease, but it was still a shock.  Additionally, I had already decided to take a new career path starting in 2011, but have not fully figured out what path that will be yet.  Suddenly, everything in my life seemed to let go of its grasp on me, and I started to float free, seeing how else I could end other areas of my life.  I despaired my lack of grounding and became frantic.

My solution was to tie myself into a contract to teach English in Korea.  This seemed perfect; I have been in love with Korean TV, many of my friends have taught in Korea - one is still there in fact! - I drive a Korean-made car, and I ran into some Korean people at the gym.  What telling omens, right!?  As I started to realize that going to Korea for a year would be a year less that I could be finding grounding for myself, I did not see them as omens.  Omens are just horoscopes that are experienced in life, not read somewhere...just wishful thinking.

I need to put more effort into creating the life I want for myself.  I am going to work for my dream, and change how I think about many things.  So this is the beginning of my evolution resolution!  There are four parts to this resolution:

(1) join a gym in order to be healthier physically and emotionally,
(2) adopt healthy habits such as drinking more water and flossing everyday to take care of my body,
(3) find a suitable job that allows me to save money and find an outlet for my more idealistic interests, and
(4) put more effort into self-love through physical appearance and more lady-like dating practices.

I vow to do my darnedest to keep working on these things for a year and reporting back on my progress as I go along.  I want to be the healthiest and happiest person I know!

I raise my almost empty wine glass to well-being, happiness, and perseverance!  Cheers!
