As a new year begins and a fresh new page is in front of me, every year is a chance to improve myself. To set new goals. To try harder. Sometimes I am successful. Sometimes I am not. But, I like trying and I like the opportunity.
This year's new page is a little more empty than in past years. In the past, I have had a job and a home. I have pretty much known what I wanted to accomplish. This year, I have none of those thing. A bit scary, yes.
Since December 19, I have been at Nathan's. We have laughed and played and worked puzzles. It has been fun. It has been a cocoon. It is almost time to emerge from that cocoon.
I have to start working on a resume. I get stuck there. I have to look for a job. And a place to live. I have to make new friends. Find new doctors and dentists. I have never lived in the US by myself. At my age, all of that can be, and at times is, overwhelming.
Sometimes, I can open my arms as wide as they can open and say, "bring it on." Other times, I want to dig deeper into my cocoon and never come out. I don't like uncertainty.
The opportunities are endless this year. I hope that I make the best of them.
