In My Not So Humble Opinion

It has been a year and as we head into the holiday season, I just wanted to give you all some of the insight that I have learned this year. This will be my last blog…so I am gonna make it a good one. With 2010 just around the corner, it is important that this year we make a resolution to be healthy. I don’t know what that means to you, but take care of your whole self this year mind, body and spirit. Here are my 2009 Lessons.


All that glitters isn't gold…sometimes it's just glitter.

I have learned that sometimes if it shiny and new, it isn't always right. I tried new things this year and not all of them were really worth that much other then the experience. Sometimes what you think is valuable is just cheap pieces of shiny plastic and sometimes shiny plastic is worth more then gold.



Stand strong and carry a big stick!
I really learned what it means to stand up for what you believe in this year. If they won't listen then use the stick! I am not advocating violence, but sometimes that is the only thing that people respond to. I did not get into any fights this year, but I have given some really intimidating looks.



Don’t Judge a Book by its Cover.

Boy, did I learn this lesson this year. I have actually found friends in people that I would have never been friends will. I honor those relationships and learn from my mistake. Be kind to each other…the toes you step on today may be connected to the butt you have to kiss tomorrow.


Rome wasn't built in a Day!
That may be true…but someone dreamt it in one day. Follow your dreams regardless of what anyone tells you. This was a lesson that I so need to hear. I have so many dreams in this world and I know that I can make them all come true!


You can always come home!

At the end of the day I have had my fun. Made new friends, made some changes and become someone who I am much prouder of today then I was yesterday. But at the end of the day all I really need is to come home where it is warm and loving. SO here is to 2010…wasn't the greatest year…wasn’t the worst. Thanks for the memories!



In my not so humble opinion, tomorrow hopes that we have learned something from today!

Love,
Patricio
