HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
I just got home from an amazing night cheering in the new year. I have to say that this was one of the BEST New Year celebrations I've ever been to. There were lots of people, lots of good food, great conversations, I got to dance to some great music (Yeah! I got my dancing fix in!!) This was just an amazing night. I got lots of hugs, a couple kisses, some numbers, met new people, made new friends... By all standards it was a good night. =c)
Best part about it is that I'll remember it all tomorrow and I didn't make a fool of myself tonight (well, except a dancing fool, but that's all good). Oh. Yeah, no alcohol at the party. Weird eh?
The oddest part was dancing. It's been a LONG time since I've danced that much, especially since I danced sober, so it took a bit for me to start to feel the groove and let go and just have fun but it was well worth it. I'm sure my body will be sore tomorrow, but that's just the price I pay for bustin' a move at my age. (kidding)
It was crazy, there were people standing around busy being bored (just like at the bar) who I overheard making comments about the people who were having fun, saying they were making fools of themselves on the dance floor or that the people playing those "stupid" games needed to get a life and complaining about how bored they were (again, just like at the bar). You know what though, the people making the comments stayed bored while the people actually doing stuff were having fun. Made me think up an Acronym.
F.U.N.= Forget Unhealthy Notions.
So many times I see people just "bored to death" standing around doing nothing about it. Either they're too concerned about how they look, are waiting for someone else to do something for them to amuse them or (god help us) are concerned about someone else commenting that they (the bored people) are doing something stupid. Unhealthy notions. Stuck in themselves and unwilling to get out of it. Made me laugh. I could have joined them making the comments about other people because I was very nervous about being in a place where I didn't know many people and I had a lot on my mind today that put me in a precarious mind-set (probably will post about it later) but instead, I decided to Forget my Unhealthy Notions about myself and my insecurities and just have fun. It was great.
On my mind:
Lately I've been seeing qualities in other people that I'm envious of. It's good because it helps me to see areas of my life I need to work on. I am grateful that I can be more envious of personality qualities than I am of peoples' possessions.
Good way to start off a new year, with a new paradigm on life.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!
