Did I.....I want to....

The year is almost over. Work has been very busy. Christmas was wonderful. Family was dear. Food was great. Presents were special. The best Christmas yet. 2006 was full of life, love, memories, unfamiliar walkways, and paths yet to be blazed. I sit here and wonder.....did I do all, love all, live all, believe all, keep all, see all, and be all? As I look to the new year, nothing is promised, what can I be? What can I do? What needs to be done? Who do I need to love more? What do I need to improve on? What do my children need? What does my home need? Who am I going to be in 2007? I am going to be Miriam Elizabeth Harney Majors. 45. Wife. Mother. Child of God. Nurse. Friend. Teacher. Blonde with grey. Strange green eyes. I am going to be kind to the stranger. Refrain from honking at red lights. Stop calling people names. Use a kinder voice. Look into people's eyes when they talk. Touch a wounded soul on the shoulder. Take the time to call. Write a letter to say thank you. Stop being intolerant of certain people. I want to care about the polar bears existance. To understand the beauty in being relentless. To appreciate the passion of competing. To linger longer for more than a peck on the cheek. To tell my children I believe in them, I have faith in them. To know my soulmate and still love him with all my heart. I want to.....BE these things.
